Intel wants to DECEIVE you!
Intel 10th gen Mobile H series is out and it's pretty disappointing: it is for the most part identical to the 9th gen. What's worse is the fact that Intel is really trying their hardest to deceive customers with the "Thermal Velocity Boost" that inflates maximum boost frequency numbers by 200Mhz on paper. This is now a "feature" extended to the i7 skew as well which will make it even more confusing for customers comparing 9th and 10th gen. Don't get fooled by Intel's deceptive marketing, in this video we cover everything you need to know when it comes to how the 9th and 10th generation 6 and 8 cores processors compare and what's "new". After taking an extensive look on their meaningful characteristics, we can't help by notice how Intel's 10th gen H on 14nm still can't really compete with AMD Ryzen 4000 Zen 2. Unfortunately though, there is a very big demographic that is not addressed with the AMD 4000 laptops available right now: the enthusiast gamers that want a 240Hz high refresh rate screen and a high end graphics card to push those frame-rates. We include some gaming benchmarks from some popular mobile Nvidia graphics cards as a reference on what fps you might expect for some popular games and whether or not you are forced to forgo laptop offerings with Ryzen 4000, since right now the 2060 max-q seems to be the highest end option. The Zephyrus G15 is unfortunately not changing that: even though it has a 240Hz panel option, it has a less capable thermal design than the G14 since unfortunately ASUS hasn't really taken advantage of it's bigger size. Therefore its top graphics card option is the RTX 2060 Max-q.
