Architecture All Access: Modern CPU Architecture Part 1 - Key Concepts | Intel Technology

[@DannyTan-dm5ou]

I've written programs as a hobby and semi professionally for 15 years. Never understood computer science, never trained formally, but knew how to write programs. This video answers all of my questions at a level I (an amateur) can understand. Thank you!

[@karehaqt]

The fact we can even make these things blows my mind.

[@kayakMike1000]

YOU could make a simple processor if you were so inclined. Hell, you could make a complex processor if you wanted too and had the time to learn. There was this guy on hackaday that described how he makes chips in his garage. He is probably state of the art for about 1984, but sheesh, he is one guy in his garage. That is pretty amazing...

You don't even need to "physically" make a processor. You can design it in a Hardware Description Language (HDL) i.e. Verilog, and simulate your design. For a small processor, you can use FPGA to simulate it in hardware!

[@Validole]

I mean, I just watched through this again to bump it in the algorithm a bit, as I think it deserves attention.

Dear Intel, I want you guys to bounce back from the current slump. The intel of the 1990s and 2000's was simply too cool and filled everyone with excitement on every new processor release. We need to bring that back. The renaming of new gen proc lineup is not the way to go, raw performance and after sales consistency in performance matters. Bring back the good old Intel days !

[@Epsio0]

If I ever need a metaphor or something to help illustrate what, "standing on the shoulders of giants" means, I will refer to this video. The amount of abstractions that each layer works on top of is insane!

[@Umeldaraje]

I am in chip design from 1984 and tried many times to explain to people what am I doing. If I would have had these videos my explanation could have been easier. The animation and graphics are unbelievable quality. The Part 1 is a good umbrella explanation of the chip design in general and CPUs in particular. I will call this the 10.000 feet view. The Part 2 is the 1 foot view directly into the processor architecture so some industry lingo and knowledge is required. I would have liked to have a 3.000 feet and a 100 feet view for popularizing chip design and CPU for people who do not have an electronics background. Intel has all the capabilities to do it so please consider it. In the times of Artificial Intelligence and Biotech advancements making more people understand where all started and how it humans can benefit from their merger should be a good topic to cover. Looking forward for new videos from you.

[@stachowi]

i would have loved to have someone like you to ask questions about what you do 🤣 i had to learn it the hard way... still learning

[@jamesknarr2031]

@ 5:35 he says that when he says CPU from now on, he'll be referring to a CPU core. Is this common practice to call a CPU core just CPU?

[@flippert0]

What is a 'CVP' in a company (here: Intel)? It must be some 'vice president', but what does the 'C' stand for? Unfortunately, Google only lists "customer value proposition" and "Configuation via Protocal' as possible acronyms. Update: after some consideration, I came to the conclusion that the 'C' stands for 'Corporate'. So the CVP is a 'Corporate Vice President'.

[@wallaceobey651]

As a Computer Engineering student, this is amazing to see!

[@jacintafactor3207]

Since I decide to study Information Technology.. I love to watch about IT. And this videos I'm surprised because all the topics I'm reading was all here.. specially Moore Law .. thank you for sharing this video. I hope more videos to watch.

[@KaliszAd]

Incredible overview. It would be great to have some more high quality videos about each of those parts in more detail. A bit about the chemistry/ physics/ electrical engineering of a transistor and the lithographic process, how do you connect transistors together to AND/ OR/ NOT in more detail, e.g. with some calculations and so on. There is much, much more to it e.g. the L1 cache is actually separated for instructions and data, so there are aspects of the Harvard architecture underneath. I don't think there is an attractive high quality video about these aspects, why they are the way they are, how they connect the other aspects of a modern processor. There are many more questions, for instance, how does a modern CPU start itself?

[@FriendOfNightknight122]

Gotta love how nice the script is for this video and how it's voiced so honeslty.

[@JoseRicardoK]

Great video mate! Congratulations. I just think you could have talked about the instruction size (16, 32, 64 bits....). Like what really means to have a 64 bits computer compared to a 32 bits one; how much more computing power it brings but also how much more complexity it creates when designing the units registers, ALU. The instruction size defines, for example, how many colors the OS can reproduce, the quality of the sound, how much memory the computer can have/address, how large are the number it can calculate etc...

[@russell2952]

Nice to have someone who knows what they're talking about rather than an actor.

[@j340_official]

This is amazing. Thank you Intel! I have been fascinated by these devices since I was a little boy in the 90s (286, 386, 486, Pentium). And I continue to be fascinated. I look forward to Intel coming back and continuing to innovate: Alder Lake, Meteor Lake, and beyond to Lunar Lake.

[@PlayingwthCreation]

These computers are like trying to go to the moon with a bicycle and an umbrella. We need to stop making war cross borders and evolve to be super humans. It's all we here for to evolve, nothing will be obstacles. Your eyes will see beyond the atom, beyond the universe.

We really need to be taught computer architecture by professionals... not by some university teachers who never coded in assembly

[@freexmangaming4782]

Agree, My teachers suck, well actually not my teachers hahaha I'm pn chemical eng. But bro, they teach so old things about architecture

[@shad7214]

@@freexmangaming4782 It's difficult to completely understand the concepts if you are taught about modern processors right off the bat. So, they teach the old ones initially and you could take an advanced level course if you interested to learn about modern architectures.

[@sayanbandyopadhyay216]

Sorry for an offbit query. Can somebody please tell me what kind of backgroun music was used in the intro ? For me, the music made everything in the video much better.

[@rajatchopra1411]

8:11 Correction* Actually John Von Neumann did not invent the storage of data as program concept, he was just the one to publish the same.

[@bagumamartin]

Amazing video. I read a lot of these during my Electronic engineering courses but the way all these information are stitched is very useful.

[@matt-g-recovers]

I am a software engineer but a hardware enthusiasts as well. Great video for sure!

[@DeepFrydTurd]

This is entertaining :) I already have a CS Degree and work as a Network Forensics Analyst but I still find this entertaining better than watching some non sense videos. I like learning about the physics of the electrons or photons inside the CPU highway and logic gates and conducting test's of new architecture designs in a digital 3D simulator environment and record the data.

[@swlak516]

Thanks for making this video. You made it easy enough for a semi-intelligent layman like myself to understand.

[@acidbaron]

Interesting watch regardless if you are an AMD or Intel fanboy, should promote this more so it could get more views. Picked a link from this up on PC gamer, but i am sure more people not just gamers are interested in how these things actually worked considered how obsessed we are with our phones, cars, etc...the computer hardware industry creates the framework of what our future could look like, subbed and looking forward to the remaining episodes.

[@alexandrebustico9691]

Very good video that I will ask my student to look at. I appreciate the tribute to John Von Neumann, the importance given to the stored-program concept and the layered conception which permit limited human brain to conceive something so hugely complex. These videos are a good introduction to computer architecture and every student should look at them before beginning their lecture. Perhaps the chapter on language translation is a little bit vague, mixing compiled and interpreted language, and even as being myself a perl lover, I think you should mention python for the young people.

[@YaboiJenkins]

Great video! Although I may not know a lot about CPU architecture, this was a nice learning experience. So cool to see Intel doing things like this. Keep it up!

[@Validole]

If I might make a suggestion: the first half of the video is perhaps a bit too much of a recap of things most people interested in the content would know. This could perhaps have been a "chapter 0" video of its own, with appropriate references from the chapter 1 and 2 videos, as things like Moore's law gets mentioned (the in-video pop-up card format). That way you don't dilute the focus group, and get better watch time performance (as those for whom the latter half gets too technical click away, and those already familiar with the first half fast-forward or neglect the video as too trivial), and also get better click-through performance, for optimizing the KZbin algorithm.
