== Clarification on Intel core revisions versus actual new architectures ==
 
The articles on Intel chips from about 2008 onward are a clusterf**k of misinformation. Microarchitectures are big families of similar designs. Netburst, for example, is a microarchitecture that includes the Willamette, Northwood, Prescott, and Cedar Mill cores. AMD's Bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller, and Excavator chips are all the same microarchitecture. But the articles on Intel chips from ~2008 onward seem to be written by Intel fanboys who erroneously refer to every single tick and tock as a "new architecture" in an attempt to exaggerate the technological progress that Intel has been making. Can we please clean this crap up and clarify which chips are actually new clean-sheet designs and which are just enhancements of previous designs? <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/73.70.13.107|73.70.13.107]] ([[User talk:73.70.13.107#top|talk]]) 07:58, 7 April 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
