I still remember when we started doing data science in school and I was held back by my CPU's lack of enterprise remote management capabilities. If only I had a vPro-enabled CPU back then!
I also got an F in eSports class that year but that was for unrelated reasons.
(Just how much coke did Intel's marketing department do to come up with this presentation?)
A lot of games have fully multithreaded components (for physics or navigation for example). So they can use any amount of cores. Its pretty rare to see a game max out all cores on such a system since they are usually limited by something else first.
Ah yes. General high schooler running openfoam/ansys fluent on their i5/i7 laptops which probably dell xps models that had severe throttling issues and on 8GB of ram.
Honestly wondering if Intel is retarded internally or outsourced marketimg to India with no understanding and shuffled a bunch of key words into a okay looking graphic... Regardless Intel is retarded still for letting this pass, no one checked the work LMAO
Agreed, we really should stop normalizing using words incorrectly, especially in cases like this. That specific word choice has no unique benefit to conveying the message, and can do a lot to devalue it.

Seemingly a lot, looking at the other slides from their presentation.

esports class is a thing?
How do you get an F? You suck at games?

They were actually really really good and made the teacher look so bad that they gave them an F out of spite

Mom, I'm 15, I need a Core i9, to AI generate my homework!

Pretty sure the whole point of the chart is to sell i5s and i7s to high schools.

More interesting is that people stop using productivity tools and video conferencing at 15. Someone should tell my boss.

5-10 years old, and programmers and digital creators?

Are there any popular games out there that can even use 8 cores? I can't think of any.
pat277@sh.itjust.works · 12 pts · 2y
Can use? Yes, some can. Need? No, plus, 10yo+ games freak out with too many cores, such as Prototype 2

Maybe Fortnite cause of the Unreal 5 update?

Intel is in panic mode. They can't shake AMD this time around.
MeanEYE@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Nothing screams insecurity as faking test results, which they did for AMD.

According to intel, you're now a baby for using an i3 or Celeron. Congratulations!
