CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Intel doesn’t think that Arm CPUs will make a dent in the laptop market (arstechnica.com)

I don't see how ARM will catch on for mainstream laptops until/unless there is a desktop version that is at least as powerful as the 14900k (etc.) x64 chips.

I can see it catching on for servers (due to power/cooling issues) and small/cheap laptops (for cost and battery life reasons), but I would think that most business users would want to be able to run the same software on both desktop and laptop machines, and have access to the most powerful processors that are currently available. For now, moving to Windows on ARM for laptops means giving up compatibility and/or the ability to run on fast processors.

This will also be an easier move for Linux than for Windows, since Windows ARM is still largely an experimental thing. (Do they even sell retail licenses of it yet?)
