Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
-
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

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.

Why an atom? There’s literally never been a nice atom machine made, they are literally sold to companies who don’t want to buy intel’s nicer power efficient chips, atleast that was the strat back in the day. A i5 540m laptop for example would have been a mid-high end laptop from the era, have the same designs and aesthetics, might even be able to find it in a similar/same chassis as the atom laptop your thinking of.
Unless you just wanna stare at the machine, don’t get an atom laptop. The Core variants from that era are literally 10-(infinity)x faster.
Surface 3?
And the high end atoms are literally faster than the dual core CPUs found in the surface go.
Yeah, no. see my other comment.
