It looks like Intel's new Panther Lake chips are a hit, they have amazing battery life and performance compared to their AMD and ARM equivalents (excluding Apple ofc), and the the integrated graphics is better than AMD, ARM, or Apple.

They do not have integrated memory, but by using LPCAMM2 they get better memory speeds than any laptops using the usual SODIMM memory modules.

It's nice to see Intel on the upswing again, more competition is always a good thing.

> they get better memory speeds

I saw that, but how does that work for GPU workloads? Either games of AI, really. Do I need to set a value on the BIOS for how much of the memory is split between RAM and VRAM?

Excluding Qualcomm as well, especially excluding the X2 Elite.
