Yea, so many reviews compare G3E with outdated SOCs like 258V or Z2E. It's not surprising that G3E beats both of them. However, a more interesting question is, does G3E offer any advantage over 358H? Intel claims that G3E was specifically optimized for low power, and it would be interesting to verify.

Does AMD have any plans to actually compete with Intel here or are they just going to continue spewing their delusional cope reframing the G3E as a "worse Strix Halo competitor"? Because yeah, a 35W part is totally in the same class as a 140W part.
