Just got out my copy (the installer doesn't like win10, but the game runs)

That's pretty neat

Are you doing something that's highly CPU bound and would benefit from significantly more cores, or just have rapid upgrade fever?
I don't understand why a business/enterprise would prefer a $122 i3-10100 over a $95 R3 3200G?
Most actually. Dell, Lenovo, HP, and that's your big common ones. Asus, Microsoft, Acer all do as well. Sure it's more laptops than desktops, but that's just fairly common in general these days.How many OEMs sell business desktops and laptops with AMD processors in them? Almost all Intel, and the old age thought that Intel = Stability is still stuck in enterprises minds.

It's likely more Intel = Kickback. or free cpusHow many OEMs sell business desktops and laptops with AMD processors in them? Almost all Intel, and the old age thought that Intel = Stability is still stuck in enterprises minds.

Far be it from me to accuse intel of doing something they've done before...
The latest trick is to give away free platform designs for laptop CPUs so the OEMs just have to make the fucking case design, then they attach stipulations like 'only high end GPUs with Intel. This is why you will not see high end GPUs with superior AMD cpus in laptops for a while from the main brands.It's likely more Intel = Kickback. or free cpus

So instead of heavy rebates/giving CPUs away for free, it's platform designs and GPU restriction this time. Same shady shit, just not been through court yet.
No no, it's just a coincidence! Lol but yeah most people don't dig very far into it.Wow, that makes sense. Intel inventing new ways to scumbag it up.
I was wondering why all with all these new laptops coming out with high end gpus, haven't seen one with the new AMD chips.
I was also hoping to see something like a Lenovo x1 carbon extreme with a Ryzen 6 or 8 core proc and oled screen. Or even the 15 inch Razer blade, but those are intel only.

To add, Intel (etc.) puts significant effort into their reference designs because they know the OEMs will mess something up.Reference designs have been around for a long time. Intel, Amd, NVidia, and Qualcomm all spoonfeed their OEMs this way because the race to the bottom on prices mean that even the biggest of them struggle to find any money to spend optimizing things; and any below that size would be stuck churning out nothing but low quality crap because they can't afford to engineer anything better.
Of course, but that does not explain why are there no high end GPUs on AMD laptop platforms yet then when they have a superior CPU? Aside from Clevo, who at best has a 2070 paired with a 3900x. No 2080 etc.Reference designs have been around for a long time.

OEMs don't care about single or dual channel memory. Lot soft laptops still come with 1 stick of memory soldered or not. It is a place they try to get people to spend a lot of for the 2nd stick.AMD knows the OEMs will screw up too. Remember the flood of previous generation laptops that were crippled by single channel soldiered ram?
Hrmmm nope not impressed with this gen. Keep working on it team Intel, youll get it!
Your really going to get a power hungry monster CPU and a new MB at this point in time with Ryzen 4k coming out this year? Seems weird.May 20th they go for sale then the earlier date was just a announcement.
I might pick one up I don't think I'll ever go AMD again nothing wrong with them but Intel has always been top dog.
I'll see if someone post some comparison videos on Youtube for FPS in games.
Top dog in a single type of program yes. They are falling behind in many more and this generation doesn't seem to be much difference over last (benchmarks will give a better picture of course). I'm more interested to see if zen 4000 can close the last few reasons to even still consider Intel (aka, low resolution high hz gaming).May 20th they go for sale then the earlier date was just a announcement.
