This is happening a lot in many product categories as a way to market effectively for international audiences, without some of the mistakes Chinese firms have historically made. Borrowing from other cultures is easier. For example in audio, Hifiman is a Chinese audio company that previously used alphanumeric names for their headphones but now uses various Hindu or Sanskrit (?) words to name their headphones and give them more of a “theme”.

From a quick glance at the website, the only two such products I can see are the "Susvara" (meaning "with notes") headphones and "Deva" (meaning "god") series headphones. Both of those words are Sanskrit. Their hindi equivalents are quite similar sounding (Susvar and Dev).

#9What goes unsaid in the article is that this will likely only work with Intel's Arrow Lake? Arrow Lake isnt being launched until next month though, so official specs are not available yet. And the full 9600 speed will very likely require overclocking.
It doesnt appear Zen5 can get anywhere close those speeds.
