If even half of Intel's claims are true, this could be a big shake up in the midrange market that has been entirely abandoned by both Nvidia and AMD.

don't forget mini PC like a beelink with a 8745HS for instance can be pretty great for games

I have an AMD build beelink and I'm shocked what it can run.

same, I am not a gamer but developer, I replaced a bulky full ATX tower (core i7) with a mini PC Beelink SER5 (a 5600H, before 5800H was out so got a good price)

Yup. My kids pretty much only play Minecraft and Lego games, and those work fine on my 3500U. The 8745HS would be probably be way better.
