My brain, already challenged by the idea of a "mobile" 157 W CPU—to be paired with a similarly power-hungry GPU—and stumbling upon the side-by-side table for the HX and H families, totally melted when I eventually realised there were NO TYPOS in the HX specification table:AnandTech published a review of Intel's latest Alder Lake mobile announcement, which I think pertains to this topic because it's what PC OEMs will soon be offering in the market segment which Apple M1 Max participates — this is Intel's M1 Max
Please see the whole article for its many details and observations.
The 12950HX and 12850HX differ from the 12900HX and 12800HX in having vPro and ECC support (so far so good…) but then the 12650HX and 12450HX lack these two features while the 12600HX has them. So many digits and not even a hit of consistency!
Intel is at complete loss here, and tries to hide it by confusing prospective customers with a mess of a product stack.
At this point, the next step is to take dance lessons from Steve Ballmer… (Apologies to the forum readers who were not yet born in the 1990s and were thus spared the indignity of watching THIS )
Who still want to complain about the "M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max, M1 Ultra" naming scheme?
