Do you mind sharing more details for those who weren’t paying attention? I’m still on 10 years old generations with my home PCs and my laptop. And don’t feel the urge to upgrade anything yet. Hence, I’m not following the trends.
The only thing I’m considering is the upgrade of my iPad Pro and probably MacBook at some point (not sure if I need it at all). My home computer is doing just fine with 4th generation Intel CPU and I don’t see any need for upgrade in upcoming years, if not a decade.

- zrm 2y agoIntel stagnated for several years, allowing AMD and Apple (both using TSMC) to produce CPUs that are simultaneously faster and more power efficient than Intel's. There wasn't really anything Intel could do about the power efficiency in the short run so they went all in on performance and started selling desktop CPUs with a 6 GHz turbo that draw >250 watts. Apparently this is not great for reliability.
