New AlderLake 'lower-power' chips coming soon? It will be nice to better plot out AlderLake vs Mx on performance vs power consumption.
Got a tip for us?

Apple to "apples"? New low-powered AlderLake chips

This is very exciting! I am so happy to see Intel actually trying to compete! Everyone wins when companies compete like AMD and Intel and Apple Silicon! I made a lot of jokes about Scalderlake and I wish they would get their process under control and deliver a 7nm chip or less but this is a very interesting strategy. Since they can't improve on process that much this was the best they could do and it seems they are throwing everything they can to compete.
I am actually excited to get an Intel machine again. I don't expect magic but I am sure these new Evo laptops will be pretty sweet. I really want Intel to succeed but I hope they have learned a lesson and start to give customers value instead of just pushing profits to shareholders.

While I'm not really excited to buy an Intel machine right now - I'm glad to see competition in this space, and I hope they justify any support they're getting from the USG from a national security perspective...
It’ll be interesting. I’m not expecting them to be as efficient. Still there should be gains over their previous generation.
For the purpose of buying a non-Apple product I assume? Otherwise not sure why be concerned with this other than curiosity.
Some of us use multiple platforms at the same time but I think this thread should be moved to the Mac Alternatives forum as it doesn't have anything to do with Apple silicon.
