System Architecture

System Architecture has been split into multiple sections:
  Historical,  AMD Opteron,  Intel QPI,  Dell PowerEdge,  HP ProLiant,  IBM x Series,  NUMA (never finished),
  Sandy Bridge,   KnightsLanding 2016-08,

Note: the article below will later reside in Asymmetric Processor Cores.
