>I got my next ThinPad P51s in 2017 - an it was just one huge disappointment. It felt like Intel was stepping back.
the microcode bugs cut performance by 20-30% varrying in your workloads. and it comes with a 4k display? That would also contribute to a performance loss, depending on what you're doing.
That 2.8-3.9 cpu would be equal to a 2.3-3.3 before the bug, afaik. Thats hardly faster than 10 year old duals, wow!
>>they just need to crumble.
>Less competition will only make things worse for us consumers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
