Intel introduces new Advanced Performance Extension.
Intel seems to have gotten "inspired" by ARM and is going to double the GP registers to 32 and implement a push2 and pop2 instructions that move two register values in one operation.
Seems interesting enough.

It'll be a long while before we see any actual silicon that implements APX though.
