Tonight's Low Quality Ad is for this "You Listened To RFK Jr." T-shirt. You're going to have to be more specific, that really doesn't narrow down the cause of death. Easily preventable disease? Swimming in raw sewage? Choking on a raccoon bone?https://collabs.shop/4gkzez

Intel recently unveiled its “Wildcat Lake” Core 300 series of laptop processors, designed for the entry-level market with excellent CPU and GPU capabilities to meet basic needs. By combining two “Cougar Cove” P-cores with four LPE “Darkmont” cores, these processors should provide sufficient CPU power for basic tasks in the entry-level segment. Especially when paired with the NPU 5, Xe display and media engine, and a GPU featuring up to two Xe3 cores, this SoC should handle tasks with ease, including some very light entry-level gaming. Today, the first benchmarks appeared, showcasing what this CPU is capable of and how it compares to industry-leading solutions in this price range, such as Apple’s newest MacBook Neo, thanks to the initial PassMark benchmark results.
