Intel has been using this progressive naming/numbering scheme for years, AMD deliberately hijacked it, a pathetic attempt to steal some thunder from Intel. AMD is like a kid on a playground...Intel should just name their chipset B350, and let the chips fly. Intel builders won't be confused and buy the wrong motherboard, that's something only an AMD fanboy would do, since they seem to love ignoring the truth and making up "facts". Intel should never change their plans because of AMD's childishness, just keep smacking them around as usual.

What's pathetic is people buying every new intel "chipset" to plop in the same CPU for 5 years running when the same 'ol ones would work lol.

Naming schemes are the least of worries one should have , it's the platforms themselves that are convoluted. Seriously people , stop pretending you or others lack the brain power to get past this superficial crap.

Not sure how old most of you guys are here, but this has been AMD's marketing tactic since the Intel 8080.

Intel has always been the market leader. AMD, Cyrix, VIA all cloned Intel's designs and sold them at a lower cost.

Absolutely nothing new here.

Wouldn't be much more simpler to name boards like:

Jane, Sara, Bob or whatever else. Choice of names is endless especially if you take gaming industry into account.


Recent nonsense with one-upping a set of numbers over competition that just school-yard stuff. What's next pie throwing contest? :kookoo:
