Not quite sure about laptops but AMD CPU's, especially 5000 series, especially 5600X, regarding to single thread performance is great. 5600X stocks for desktops is better than 5800X, I guess for laptops should be similar.Specifically in a 17" Gaming laptop (so Ionico?)
Quite a few of my programs heavily use a single thread and the 11th gen intel or Ryzen 5xxx are quite a bit faster (in Geekbench) e.g. from 11-1200 to ~1500 usually.
This is the usual misinterpretation of benchmarks seeing one graph higher than the other without understanding the significance of it. Where yes, the Intel 10000 mobile chips do "beat" AMD in gaming, it's literally by a couple of FPS. If you watch his summary, even Jarrod says he would not choose the Intel (and Jarrod is an Intel fanboy) because the advantage is within margin of error in performance, whilst massively compromising on all areas that make a laptop a laptop ie, battery life, thermals and power consumption.Im sorry, but are you saying the 10th gen Intel CPUs are better at gaming than teh 5000 series AMD ones?
Furthermore, it's one benchmark of one AMD chassis with one processor, they have a whole range of processors more powerful than the one in that video and it's all down to the chassis design and cooling configuration on how good performance will be.This is the usual misinterpretation of benchmarks seeing one graph higher than the other without understanding the significance of it.

If those few FPS were significant at the cost of laptop power consumption etc, then you wouldn't opt for a laptop anyway, you'd get a DTR with desktop CPU's in it. So it makes no sense to go for intel over AMD despite the "increase" in performance. It's literally worthless performance gain anyway.
Intel 11th gen chips perform worse than 10th Gen, they're really really bad processors.Well to answer my own question I can now pre-order a Recoil with a huge selection of very fast 11th Gen intel chips BUT it's nearly 2" thick and only FHD so I need an Icono but at the moment I can't even order (or go on a waiting list for) one with 10th Gen intel chip..
