Just because they can execute some similar instructions it doesnt mean they are the same. 8008 came from a common-bus design with an accumulator-centric ISA, which is miles aways from today's x64. Besides, ISA is just the CPU frontend and does not reflect the uarch. You can probably make a Ryzen execute ARM or MIPS code by changing a few frontend opcode / fw tables. | ||
