- Arrath 3y agoBetter sustained performance with the thermal envelope afforded to only 8 cores vs 12+?
- wmf 3y agoDesktop Ryzen = up to 16 cores Laptop Ryzen = up to 8 cores (the 8000G are laptop CPUs in a desktop socket)
- protastus 3y agoDragon Range (e.g., 7945HX) is a laptop/mobile workstation Ryzen with up to 16 cores, but power inefficient compared to the 8000-series due to the chiplet design. Already in market, mostly in gaming laptops.
