Intel doesn’t think that Arm CPUs will make a dent in the laptop market::“They’ve been relegated to pretty insignificant roles in the PC business.”

    This seems to be doggedly persistent rumor. Apple’s M chips are better due to better engineering and vertical integration.

    There is no inherent benefit to the underlying isa

      ARM has a more efficient instruction set, uses less power, and generates less heat while matching performance. Not really a rumor.

        Source?

        Here’s mine

        It’s down to the engineering. Saying ARM has a more efficient instruction set is like saying C has more efficient syntax than python. Especially these days with pipelining 'n stuff, it all becomes very similar under the hood.

      Is it me or is this even worse news for Intel?

      The new guys have better engineering that the guys they have been doing it since the dawn of the semiconductor age.

      Pack it in.
