Surprising to see no HN commentary on this. For those who use low-power home server SBCs like the Odroid H3/H2 or the dirt cheap home routers like the Topton units reviewed by Serve The Home, I would guess that this is the processor line that will power the next generation of such devices. The i3-N300 seems particularly exciting as it suggests the possibility of SBCs with low idle power but 8 physical cores to work with when load ramps up.
[EDIT] STH reports that there's only one memory channel instead of the two its predecessors had: https://www.servethehome.com/new-2023-n-series-gracemont-cpus-are-a-huge-upgrade/ https://www.servethehome.com/new-2023-n-series-gracemont-cpu... That is a headscratcher that is probably going to hurt benchmarks significantly but we'll see.
