Yeah so the last couple generations of their cores were supposed to be Super Awesome™, but in real world usage ended up being absolute dogs - not to mention, the lack of a system analogous to Apple’s Rosetta 2 (say what you will about Apple, but that one translation layer was an absolute godsend in terms of ironing out the vast majority of CPU architecture-related hiccups arising from the x86 -> ARM transition) kinda largely hamstrung adoption.

Let’s wait and see how this actually performs.

Let’s see real world usage comparison tests, then we’ll talk.

How much this translates into gaming is very much another question.

A good way to find out would be Microsoft releasing their own games for Windows ARM. AFAIK only Solitaire Collection is ported to ARM.

Pointless until someone releases a UEFI capable board that I can install a Linux distro of my choice on.
