Samsung does an Apple with its first Snapdragon X Elite laptop, suggesting the new Arm-based Windows machines aren't going to be a cheap alternative to x86 - eviltoast
AMD and Intel can breathe easier for a little longer, it would seem.

Interesting. Samsung making a bold move here, but one that could make sense.

    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?

      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 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.
