Intel processor architecture changes are coming as the company is working on Ocean Cove, a new nomenclature that will bring powerful new processors to life.
This nomenclature has been around for many years and it has earned our respect, but the name of Intel processors, Intel Core, will be history in 2020, after being introduced to the market in 2006 and a total of 14 will have accompanied us. years. The new Intel cores will be known as Ocean Cove. We do not know, at the moment, if it was just a change of name at the architectural level or it will also be a change at the level of commercial nomenclature, but the arrival of the Intel Core i9, would be an indicator that this nomenclature has its days numbered.
Right now, all we know is that the codename for the high-performance processor cores, for the next generation, will be renamed Ocean Cove. This change is focused on developing a new central architecture that will be in charge of giving life to the next decade of Intel solutions for the general market and possibly, also, the commercial nomenclatures will be modified.
It has been the official website of Intel, who in a list of job offers, within the Engineering section, it is seen that they are looking for a Senior Microarchitecture Engineer for Processors, to join the Ocean Cove team in Hillsboro, Oregon. This new architecture should arrive, as soon as it would arrive in 2020 and that will be processors to respond to the generation of processors that replaces the AMD Ryzen based on the Zen architecture.
This would explain the incorporation of Jim Keller to Intel, since they would be working on a much more powerful and versatile special solution, surely thinking about enhancing technologies with Artificial Intelligence, such as Raytracing.
