About Intel Ocean Cove: Since the beginning of 2018, I had been following the work of the Hillsboro team, looking forward to have access to the first patent of the disruptive new architecture that was being developed... And in 2019, this patent was finally published.
Upon analyzing it, I was absolutely shocked by what I saw and was certain that this patent would never be granted in the state in which it was presented. However, yesterday I received notification that this patent had been granted.
I could make a long article to show the details about this architecture, but it is preferable to show throughout this thread why this patent was kept in my Pandora's box for so long.

After all, what conclusions can I draw from this patent?
1 - Zen Revolution was really greater than my expectations.
2 - The best is yet to come™ ... for Intel too.
