    Intel’s laptop CPUs were never bad tho? Is it just a solidarity thing because of the 13th and 14th gen processors frying themselves?

      They always had shit integrated graphics. Only now that they make their own GPUs is when they finally started making decent ones

      Eh, we all have opinions. I bought two frameworks last year, both AMD, and they’re notably faster and better at basic gaming than the intels I had from a previous generation (2019). The core i7 I had in my Dell also became notably slower as they fixed various issues due to vulnerabilities caused by their bad engineering. As far as I know the equivalent AMD issues were neither as widespread not as severe in nature, and the fixes didn’t stack up performance losses the way they did on Intel chips.

      Buying anything that isn’t an x3D CPU at this point is abject stupidity.

      Intel CPUs might as well be worthless piles of sand. Hotter slower and higher battery usage.

      As far as laptops are concerned Intel has not a single sku worth the sand it’s made of.

      They’re power hungry for about the same performance as AMD. At least the i-series
