Kinda just went with the bottom half of the 2010-2014 era chips.

That list isn’t limited to actual laptop/desktop chips.

If it ends in E it’s an embedded chip for stuff like smart refrigerators etc. LE/LM are for even lower power devices.

I would suggest looking at actual cheap laptops from 2012 if you want to see what the low end actually looked like.

A lot of the sub 50 GFLOP stuff were low-end Laptop chips with regular M-suffixes.

These are mobile Ivybridge chips, they were not snappy, and as late as 2013 release dates for sub 50 GFLOPs.
