You have to remember that most people aren’t “choosing a CPU” as much as buying a PC. If the majority of pre-build retail PCs have Intel, then the majority of purchases will be Intel.
That’s under load. At Idle (which is where your average home PC will spend most of it’s time) I think Intel has the edge still.
It’s certainly a consideration for a battery device. Watching a video reading emails or staring at a spreadsheet will likely have better battery life than a similar spec AMD device.
We’ve reached a point where most everyday computing tasks can be handled by a cheapo N100 mini PC.
I would have to ask for a source on that. I can’t really find anything comparing many cpus.
However this video compares top end models on otherwise pretty much identical laptops and amd definitely wins in YouTube playback on battery https://youtu.be/X_I8kPlHJ3M
But if you’ve got anything to better compare I’m all ears
It’s taken this long for Intel to lose gamer trust.
Intel also have lower power consumption iirc, which is useful for laptops etc.
AMD have the best server chips: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

I don’t think Intel is more efficient if their desktops and this one link is anything to go by

But I’m not up to date on laptop stuff at all so might be wrong
