Intel's famous bong dates back to 1994, when musician Walter Werzowa composed the original mnemonic for the Intel Inside campaign. It became one of the most recognised audio logos in technology. With the company's 2020 rebrand came a refreshed sonic identity, and the updated chime heard in adverts from 2021 onward keeps the familiar melody while sounding brighter and more modern. Online it doubles as a meme, dropped into parody commercials, fake product reveals and jokes about anything running on Intel hardware.

Intel's current sonic logo, a crisp five-note chime from the 2020 rebrand. Creators use it as a tech sting, parody jingle or punchline for PC and gadget jokes.
The Intel sonic logo is the short five-note chime the chipmaker plays at the end of its adverts, a bright ascending melody that resolves on a warm final tone and lasts just a few seconds. It sounds clean, confident and instantly familiar, like a tiny fanfare for technology itself. Dropping it over a clip gives any gadget, laptop or PC build an air of official polish, and used ironically it turns an old toaster, a lagging computer or a dubious life hack into a mock premium product launch.
