Intel Core i7-1185G7 in Review - First Tiger Lake Benchmarks

[sigh]

Renoir 15W doesn't exist by how AMD defines TDP as some wishwashy temperature based limit. The Slim 7 4800U in "15W" mode boosts to 30W for 5 minutes and settles at 22W.

15W PL1 Tiger Lake is 15W electrical package power, period.

If you cannot accept this data from Anandtech, you are an AMD fanboy.

Tomshardware has also tested this at 15W, and then the results are simply incremental over previous 15w 4c/8t designs from intel. The GPU performance is just behind Renoir at that power, so at least that is an improvement. When you run this at 28W or higher, you are in the envelope of higher TDP CPUs. Try running 10300H at the same envelope and then you see that Tiger Lake is not impressive at all.

The thing is that laptops with 15 W TDP Intel chips very often run in the higher TDP configuration. Just look around. So, testing the 28 W configuration is very realistic. And it was done in a realistic chassis. It wasn't a development board with a massive cooler where the data would be completely useless. In the end, the result will depend on the laptop. Just like in the past.

Funny how there are comments that call you an AMD fanboy if you believe the review is biased. Pity you don't have data to back it up. NBC won't stop whoring up. Wish you a pleasant day.

AMD laptop wasn't 15W. It was nominally 15W TDP but the power usage was close to 30W. The tiger lake was fixed at 15W artificially by only supplying 15W power. I love AMD and glad that they brought much needed competition in the market, but we have to accept tiger lake single threaded CPU and Xe GPU is far superior than what AMD is offering for thin and light laptops. I hope that will change in future. But for now that's the reality.
