  • *HX - mobile workstation
    *H / *HS - laptop
    *U / *P - ultrabook

    Ryzen AI - current gen amd
    Ryzen 7x4x / Ryzen 8x4x - last gen amd
    Ryzen 6xxx / Ryzen 7x3x - prev gen amd
    Core Ultra 1xx / Core 14xxx - current gen intel
    Core 1xxx / Core 13xxx - last gen intel
    Core 12xxx - prev gen intel

    Generation is the most important factor for single thread performance, then power usage and lastly sku.
    You could go for an *HX or *H model from a recent gen for an upgrade or if you’re fine with the performance you had you could also get a *U model as those are cheaper, more silent and use less power. It’s actually surprising that your laptop wasn’t that loud

    Also the next intel generation is soon to come with big improvements I think, but it’ll probably take time for it to be sold










  • I read the thread and now I’m more confused. Can someone explain what this is about to an outsider?

    Edit: every thread I see is talking about talking about a discussion. What’s the discussion??

    Edit 2: Ok so far I got that this Jon guy doesn’t like positive discrimination and ‘politics’ and also worked at the defense company that sponsored nix but doesn’t support that (?) (which is also related to the diversity problem (?)) and there are also two open letters that are related (?) and people have been mean to him in threads. Anyone who isn’t involved in nix community thinks good of him because he’s very active and talks agreeably

    I wish they’d all stop talking so superficially and just get to the point
