  AMD has the worst naming schemes in the industry, I miss the simple old i3, i5, i7… for each generation.

    I can’t say Intel CPU naming is better though. The i3, i5, i7, i9 is misleading and the full names are even more confusing than AMD’s.

      For a little bit there with 12th and 13th gen laptops it seemed like it could have made sense.

      U was the low power “normal” chip

      P was the higher power chip

      H was the highest power chips

      Then i3-9 for the stack.

      But then 100 and 200 series ditched that and the P series kinda merged with the H series and you have no idea what you’re getting.

    Well AMD just blatantly copied Nvidia’s naming scheme for their new GPUs so maybe they’ll copy Intel for their CPUs. I mean, they kind of already did, since the Ryzen 9 is basically i9, and the Ryzen 7 is basically i7 etc. It’s mostly AMDs mobile CPUs that have horrendous names, but Intel really isn’t much better in that department.

  I wish there was a Company that followed the Design of the Thinkpad rather then Apple.
