"They've been relegated to pretty insignificant roles in the PC business."

Intel doesn’t think that Arm CPUs will make a dent in the laptop market::“They’ve been relegated to pretty insignificant roles in the PC business.”

    Basically few to non-existent cases where M2 is faster than either Intel or AMD’s best. On power consumption however it’s a total win for Apple. But performance… No. Not in any way.

      1. Article is about laptop cpus.

      2. M2 is the budget entry chip. M2 Pro/Max is a big jump up.

      3. there’s basically nothing out there for laptops that comes close to the M2 Pro.

      4. the only benefit Intel/AMD have right now is access to external and better graphics chips made by companies that aren’t Intel.

      5. desktops / servers are a different matter, but again, the article is talking about laptops.

        The Intel Core i9-13980HX laptop CPU is between 20% and 100% faster than the M2 Max on nearly every benchmark.
