Why? Layoff is Great, collect $200 when you pass go, and Unlimited Vidya, go play the ponies w/ extra cash.

Damn!!!!!

4800h is gonna be mainstream, I believe 4900h might be their Halo-Tier Upseller chip.

8 cores in a 45-70 watt envelope is already really pushing it, I don't think a clock boost chip will be that much faster. which is why the current 9750h intel is so ubiquitous.

It'd be interesting if 4900u/h came with 10 or 12 cores, then intel be like, n000000ooooo we can't compete with that, our 10nm no worky.

that's what stims do, fast up, then crash.

Then you cycle this long enough, the stims just make you feel normal, and your default state is the crashed state.

Then you cycle this even further, neurotoxicity ensues, and you get life long depression.

Neuroplasticity decreases with age, so, if you're gonna turn around, it's always yesterday.
