x86 don't need to resort to software killing performance because they've something even better. Anaemic igpu segmentation at the budget range. Trash like 840m and 2 Xe cores. If options are those, I mean sheet, you might as well go qcomm at that point.

Anyways, the SoC wars have ended. It's more about ecosystems, platforms and strong software support. The OEMs which are doing the most well now (Playstation, Valve, Apple) are all offering a more complete package and polished integrated experience.

It doesn't matter what chip you've if you don't have the rest it, your device/machine/product will fail.

This is "for business" so they think they can charge anything they want.  Normal people should ignore this noise.
