A whole new CPU architecture!
This CPU still runs Chives, however instead of the ChivesX10 architecture that we're used to, this CPU runs the newer and more optimized ChivesX16 architecture.
ChivesX16 has 16 registers, giving it the 16 in its name.
Chives, of course, comes from the language it natively runs, which is, you guessed it, named Chives.
There are a couple more "under the hood" changes - for one, this new architecture supports up to 50 registers (although it can and will get laggy if you do that) and has an optimized boot screen.
The CPU itself is optimized, to the point where its 10KB smaller than the previous CPU I created.
A few technical bugs such as 0 not working on the BIOS screen have also been squashed.
Instructions to use this computer are in the scene.
Also, nobody cares but yes, this PC is in a slightly modified AHOX Storm case.
