Jokes aside, Raptor lake has shown to maintain pretty decent performance when even significantly power limited. A 13900K locked at 65 watts is more powerful than 11th gen burning more than 200 watts.

Let's wait and see how the chip performs before passing judgement.

Really want Intel to finally get over their doldrums as it will keep Apple being aggressive in updating their AS line. The M2 wasn't much of an upgrade over the M1.

Apple meanwhile has failed to release M2pro/max macbook pro line including the supposed transition to AS for the Mac Pro at the end of 2022.

It won’t happen, but I wonder how the M1 Ultra would fare in terms of heat, energy and overall performance if Apple put it in laptop with similar form factor that these i9s will be going in.

It seems that Intel only outperforms on mobile because manufacturers don’t care about energy and heat.

Will it be paired w/ the best possible Gen 4 NVME SSD and have 200 Gbps RAM throughput? Will the laptop manufacturer have mind-blowing thermal handling tailored to each version of this processor?

Intel can optimize its "mobile" chip and bulk up its L3 cache all it wants. But no one is competing with Apple on mobile chips until CPU, GPU, memory and storage play in concert, and they're all hyper-optimized for each other. That's Apple's edge, and there's no competition in sight.
 
That’s awesome but where is it going to be used? It sure isn’t going to be Apple.

Well, Apple represents such a small overall % of the market vs windows and you can add Linux and others to that then the opportunities are huge.

55/157 watts is not that bad for intel. Not great that is for sure.

Which laptops are these getting put into? because the Macs are already incredibally thin. Any PC that I have ever seen needs a pretty intensive cooling system and still sounds like a jet engine. Also I wonder what the sustained speeds will be like

Prob just about every other company that isn't Apple.

Apple isn't the only hardware manufacturer out there, you know?
I believe the point is that most manufacturers do not go the “mobile” i9 route for many, many reasons - including wanting to corner the low cost portions of the market, offer longer battery life, etc.
