Mom, I’m 15, I need a Core i9, to AI generate my homework!
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?)
esports class is a thing?
How do you get an F? You suck at games?
Pretty sure the whole point of the chart is to sell i5s and i7s to high schools.
I better let my primary server know it’s now a toy for 5 year olds…
More interesting is that people stop using productivity tools and video conferencing at 15. Someone should tell my boss.
Esports
Are there any popular games out there that can even use 8 cores? I can’t think of any.
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.
Can use? Yes, some can. Need? No, plus, 10yo+ games freak out with too many cores, such as Prototype 2
Inflation made me do that whole schedule opposite… 😅
According to intel, you’re now a baby for using an i3 or Celeron. Congratulations!
I might need to rename myself to Benjamin.
