Intel doesn’t think that Arm CPUs will make a dent in the laptop market

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Even AMD showed just how power hungry and thermal inefficient intel generally is
As Arm develops more every year, laptop OEMs will eventually switch just because of the insane power and thermal benefit.
I hope RISC-V gets its chance to shine too
Current gen AMD laptop CPUs rival apple silicon in performance and power consumption on mobile. x86 is nowhere near as close to dying as people think.
Aye exactly, Apple's marketing, which is often basically lying, has a lot to answer for in the prevelence of this idea. They'd have you believe that they're making chips with 14 billion percent more performance per watt and class beating performance. Whereas in reality they're very much going toe to toe with AMD and other high end ARM chip vendors
My M2 air is silent because it has no fans. I've never had any trouble doing any office / photoshop / illustrator work. Battery life lasts hours and hours and hours.
It's not all marketing, there's substance too
Did I ever say it was all lies? They're incredibly capable machines, I'd love to own one. I just take issue with Apple's lark of transparency in the marketing of the performance of the chips vs competition.
