You're misunderstanding Intel's specs. If you want the chip to run within TDP you can only expect the base frequency across all cores, not the ridiculous turbo frequency. The best laptop chip Intel has right now is the…
It's not that bad - Samsung and Intel are at most 1-2 years behind TSMC. An eternity in terms of product cycles for sure, but society would not fall apart if Apple had to redesign their A15 and M2 chips for Samsung 5nm…
I'm not sure where everyone gets the idea that Intel charges a big premium for ECC platforms. If you buy the low-end workstation Xeons the processor costs about the same. For example, Xeon W-1290 (10C, 5.2GHz turbo) has…
All of the reasons you said are correct, but I want to point out that Windows on ARM is also a bad technical product. The Qualcomm SoCs in devices like the Surface Pro X are more efficient than Intel chips, but they are…
Really, I find that surprising. I use a GTX 1070 and it's still capable of playing a decent number of recent games at 4K with the settings turned down. Seems like the GTX 1050 Ti should still cut it for some moderate…
