gollark: If you look at the mobile lineup for 7th gen vs 8th gen, you see that 8th gen has a lot more cores and also worse clocks.

gollark: Er, not their laptops, their mobile CPUs.

gollark: Intel decided to add tons of cores to their laptops without (allegedly) increasing the TDP, so clocks are bad.

gollark: Well, the most powerful one is the last one, since it appears to have a decent processor and GTX 1660, but obviously other stuff matters.

gollark: It has an actual dedicated GPU, might be better for gaming.
