Yep, yep. Also their ARM chips might quickly become more powerful than x64 ones as is the case with Mx ones. At least when it comes to laptops. The article is really weird by focusing on gaming experience, is this really a big market for laptops?
If power consumption is lower, that means can have a more compact cooling. There’s a lot of people who would pay the premium for longer lasting and lighter laptops, myself included.

An arm steamdeck that could run games would be sick.
I bed valve is already experimenting with box86 and box64.
I think you can find videos of Skyrim running poorly on a raspberry pi.

Idk Mx chip. I googled. Is it a chip for smart home devices?
The demand for gaming 💻 has been high. Firms made names like Rog, Legion and Predator as they’ve wanted to give a considerable amount of focus to folks buying gaming 💻.
Also, there can be high profit in high-end gaming 💻.
There’s high profit too in thin and low-mass 💻. For example, enterprise sales. Say a firm with 10000 workers buys 💻 from Asus. High profit.
Idk which generates more profit.

That is a fair point.

Is it tho? ARM is not purely RISC and x86 not purely CISC anymore.

If it’s anything like the new MacBooks, then hell yes. I can go full days at the office, programming, without a charger. My old dell xps would crap out after 2 hours, tops.

I appreciate Dave2d’s “M2 Macbook air versus Windows” vid. Hope he’ll make an M3 Macbook air versus Windows.

If it isn't, then there is almost no point in going ARM for Windows. Apple demonstrated that it can be quite lower or better perf at same power consumption.
