Final videos for December
Added 2023-12-11 04:30:00 +0000 UTCAlright there's just one more video coming in December, so this is likely going to be the final update post of 2023!
Thursday 14th: Intel Meteor Lake preview
Intel's Meteor Lake launch date is public, and I've got a video ready as soon as it ends. That wasn't going to be the case though.
Between last week's BTS update and yesterday, my mind was changed and I had cancelled the video, as I thought it would be too boring.
I instead spent the time updating the website with some new pages sharing my test data:
- Cinebench 2024 data now public, we'll swap to this in 2024 instead of R23: https://jarrods.tech/laptop-cpu-performance-in-cinebench-2024/
- Wi-Fi speed: https://jarrods.tech/laptop-wifi-speed-test/
- Total latency: https://jarrods.tech/gaming-laptops-with-lowest-latency/
- How much laptops weigh: https://jarrods.tech/gaming-laptop-weight-list/
- Old Cinebench R20 data shared: https://jarrods.tech/laptop-cpu-performance-in-cinebench-r20/
There are some other posts to common questions scheduled to go out over the next couple of weeks, nothing special though.
But back to Meteor Lake - I've only got access to an early engineering sample, so I'm limited in what I can test. In the end I ended up making the video yesterday, as I thought there would still be enough interesting stuff to cover and most of the testing was already done anyway. Plus we there will probably more than a month until I'm able to do a proper comparison due to CES (2 week trip to murica).
I'm actually writing this post on Sunday and scheduling it for the normal Monday, as Sarah and I are flying to Melbourne today and going on a 5 night cruise to Tasmania, so not sure what Discord access will be like. Just a short break before CES, which will be a big effort.
I've got a couple of CES videos to make from home with engineering samples when we return, but those won't go live until January, so from your perspective this is it for the year!
Thanks to everyone who has supported us throughout 2023, we'll see you either in Discord, or in 2024 when we've got updates to share :)
