its about time.... (i hate to say it but it felt overheated for way too long)
I hope they shrink back to health. We need the competition so that we don't get overpriced x86 CPUs. "Arrow Lake" doesn't seem so bad for gamers and power users. Released end 2024, I think the investors bailed too early because the numbers were not to their liking. Arrow lake seems new clean design and nice power management. Good engineering work takes time.
