You say i dont know what im talking about, but you say im right at the end.

No i did not, i said who i quoted was wrong and most other people too.

Edit: on closer look maybe it looked like i did, when i quoted 5 years of engineering i was thinking someone else said that. Anyways just the first 2 lines were targeted to you, the rest was for everyone else.
 
Is PCMark a good measure?

Not not really as the mobile one gets alot of score for hyper threading

as you notice 8 threads

Thats not why it scores high.

Anyways PCmark is not really reliable, like he said.
PCmark takes total performance of entire PC, not just CPU. So the mobile could have high end ram, ssd, etc which adds to the entire score while the Desktop could have slow stuff, etc.
