That is simply amazing :o I'm buying that book now.

 

If you really want to learn grab Structured Computer Organization by Andrew S Tanenbaum instead.

Because using a modern CPU like an i7 would add a lot to the complexity of the explanation, and add little to no value for the person watching. A computer architecture engineer would benefit from learning that information, but that's not the intent of this video.

 

Most of this information is still correct and relevant, most of what you have to do to create a more modern CPU is just add "more", more signal lines, more logic in the ALU, etc. and then shrink it significantly. All modern processors still use pins of some sort to get data around, they still have RAM, they still have an ALU, and they still have registers...

Because the concept is essentially the same.
