Well, my new workplace selected it and paid for it, I just have to use it.
Personally I'd have gone with the AMD CPU, at home I rock a 5800X3D :)
Intel's power consumption is off the charts unfortunately. Those e-cores didn't help at all.
Yep, even "efficiency" cores are a scam. They were forced to go that way because their current process simply can't support all full cores without drawing 300W+ and taking too much space.
Cut down E-Cores aren't even efficient power wise, just space efficient so they could fit them on the die.
Besides power consumption my trust for Intel is down the gutter with half a dozen security issues. Which were patched with performance degradation. So they fucked up, patched it in software, now your hardware runs slower than when you bought it.
