So I'm reading up in the Intel i7 Processor series... There have been three different microarchitectures:
1.) Nehalem
2.) Westmere
3.) Sandy Bridge
4.) Ivy Bridge
There are also different models of microprocessors, for example:
1.) Bloomfield
2.) Lynnfield
3.)Clarksfield
When i look at the specs for the microarchitecture, they are almost the exact same as the microprocessor, this might be a moronic question, but what is the difference between a microprocessor and a microarchitecture ( eg. Bloomfield was made with Nehalem microarchitecture)
Thanks!
