9880h offers the same performance for nearly a year now. So what is the big deal?

Intel Troll Technique 101:

AMD nearly hits Intel's performance at a lower cost -
"It's still slower though, I only buy premium 😎"

AMD hits Intel's performance at a lower cost -
"It's still cheaper though, I always buy premium 😎🔫"

AMD exceeds Intel's performance at a lower cost -
"😰 Uhhh I can't read graphs properly so these things look equal to me even though they aren't but Intel did it first and as we all know that's the key factor in which laptop to buy right now 😰"

Beside performance increase, the big deal is performance to price ratio, you can find this CPU in laptops as low as 1000$, while a i9 laptop is well over 2500$.
I hope the greedy Intel will learn his lession, I am full of seeing new generations of CPUs with marginal performance increasement but higher price from them.

@Ssgsdhgzzfhczxvvvc - Did you bother reading?

"The rival Intel Core i9-9880H has a median of 1,497.5 points (max: 1,721) in our tests"

Where this gets 1,743. That is 16% more powerful than the median 9880H.

tbh I was more excited about previous 4 core CPU from AMD with 35 Watt.
These 6 core monsters will have crippled all core stable turbo in low tier laptops anyway.
