It seems that they're finally taking that seriously though so it's good to see. They never really had any incentive to put too much effort in making x86 more efficient for consumer devices since their server chips have much, much higher profit margins.

Lunar Lake and AMD's Z1 is a good start and it's interesting to see where this goes.

It’s amazing what a modern process node and not cranking clock speeds to high hell will do.

You forgot about ditching more of the chipset etc. in favour of integrating everything into the CPU die.
