I think we’re gonna need some updated naming wheels for the new generations of processors. I have no clue if a “Ryzen AI 300” is supposed to be a high-end, mid tier, or budget processor, nor what the Intel Core Plus Ultra whatever (that somehow draws 200V power?) is.

300 is 1.5x more than 200?
I’m gonna keep my p3 400 with mmx for a little longer, it’s got to be better even more.

The most confusing thing is that “200V” isnt a CPU, it’s the equivalent of “15th gen”.
The numbers before the V are un-parseable, but at least for the actual parts it’s a “Ultra 7 236.1425926V” or something

200V refers to the gen then? I saw the article mention some CPUs in the 200s so I guess that makes sense.
Odd choice to go with a V suffix though for a part that would probably explode if provided 200V power (at the usual current levels it draws anyway). Imagine a laptop CPU that draws 2000W and is somehow an improvement over previous gen - actually, that’s a very Intel thing to do now that I’m thinking about it.

Yeah if that’s not on-brand for Intel, I don’t know what is! I wonder what the max power draw for the 14900H is, it’s gotta be close 😂
