I'm glad they are not rushing a new one out until there is some genuine leap in the tech. I think we have become accustomed to pointless upgrades every year which offer nothing substantial other than lining some shareholders pockets.

In my case the longer they take the better 😊

The console approach of 3-4 year refreshes

7840u is a substantially better apu though

Yes I get that but personally I have a huge backlog to get through and there are lots more games the current one can run that have to come down in price too so I'll be busy for a long time before I start looking for a new one.
