Tick-tock in action
Year 1: First the "Tick"
Intel delivers new silicon process technology, dramatically increasing transistor density while enhancing performance and energy efficiency within a smaller, more refined version of our existing microarchitecture.
Year 2: Then the "Tock"
Intel delivers entirely new processor microarchitecture to optimize the value of the increased number of transistors and technology updates now available.
