Single threaded performance was the only reason to go Intel.
I wish all the computer parts companies would only release new products when they are definitively better rather than making them on a schedule no matter what. I don’t want to buy this year’s 1080p gaming CPU and GPU combo for more than I spent for the last one with the same capabilities, I want the next series of the same part to be capable of more damn it.
The article mentions the results are probably because of Intel’s focus on AI, but it’s more likely that this was because of Intel’s focus on making their chips use less power. Laptops with the new generation have a significantly better battery life.
How’s the performance per watt?
Oh wait. Nevermind, Intel sucks anyway. If it’s not performance issues, it’s hardware exploits. Not to mention Intel’s support for genocide in Gaza.
