Intel VS PPC Architecture















PPC Uses Load/Store architecture.
Means, it uses only the load/store instructions to access memory. For the operations, the operands are stored in the registers itself.
Eg. the operands of AND operation are stored in the registers itself.

Intel x86 uses "Register memory architecture" where in one of the operands of AND operation may be in memory and the other one in register.
