Newer AMD Ryzen processors are head to head with Intel but don't go for older version.

The last time I used it I was always burnt by the heat coming out from it, proper hot plate.

Right now AMD are actually better than Intel, less heat and better performance

Ryzen cannot beat Intel in heat management, that's Intel's biggest selling point but it does destroy Intel in performance especially in gaming.

Core i9 is always in the shadow of Ryzen 9 performance wise.

In terms of efficency, power management and heat management Snapdragon X Elite destroys the two but it isn't half their performance or raw io.

It boils down on the usage.
For gaming - latest Ryzen models.
For productivity like graphics editing, software compilation - Intel.

For business and productivity - Apple m4 versions seems on top.

For personal use on laptop I will pick Snapdragon X Elite. This monster can give you more than half a day battery life of your laptop in decent usage.

My next target is Surface Laptop 7 Snapdragon X Elite.
