How fortunate for Intel that as soon as they ruin their CPU naming scheme, AMD follow suit.



AMD's mobile CPUs have had confusing names since 2022 with the 7000 series, and are now completely bonkers. The completely unnecessary insertion of "AI" into every name, the TDP suffix now an optional prefix, and the extremely poorly justified generation counter starting at 300.

Intel on the other hand were fairly sensible. i7 becomes Ultra 7 and the numbering restarts from 100 (Meteor Lake). That's easy to follow.
