- TheRealPomax 4y agoBut crucially, mobile is an OEM market, not a consumer market.
- TheRealPomax 4y agoCurious about the downvote. The EOM market is a very different beast, in that OEM market doesn't suffer from the "reviewer peer pressure". If a million youtube reviewers go "this 4080 is a 4070, wtf??" including people like "Steve from Gamer's Nexus", Jason Langevin, and Linus Sebastian, you change your tune (even if you don't admit that's why) because consumers pay attention to this people. But in the OEM market, that pressure literally doesn't exist. Intel can call things whatever they like on the OEM side, but unless that affects the enthusiast OEM market (which is, let's be real: extremely small) no one is ever going to call it out, let alone care.
