    I do not understand why some are sharing this like it is some smoking gun or big comeback. Considering Lunar Lake is a 2025 product, it is lackluster that it can only compete with Apple’s M2 from 2022. Contrary to Gelsinger’s initial remarks as CEO, Intel continues to be in the competition’s rearview mirrors.

      It shows Intel is improving much faster than Apple. M3 GPU is barely faster than M2. Unless Apple has a much better product next year (which is unlikely), LNL will still be competitive.

      Apple isn’t even a direct competitor. Intel’s comments were about AMD.

        Yeah Apple is stagnating with the performance cores. If Intel gains momentum with a solid product in Lunar Lake, and is able to sustain it, Apple is going to regret ditching x86 altogether.
