They do different things tho?

Edit: isn't APO about making the E cores work better and this just disabling them?

Are dual-core laptops still "usable" in today's day and age? Curious about the topic since modern hardware is so abundant in the US, but not so much in other countries. in c/[email protected]

That's not my experience. And that's not even a recent one I'm using. My laptop has an i5 6200u. It runs Edge fine and I can even watch 1080p60 videos on YouTube without frame drops. I didn't check how many tabs I can use but i think the max I used was 10? And it still worked fine

I'm currently using a Dell Inspiron 15 5555 for college. (Visual Studio 2022, VSCode, Microsoft Office and a bit of light gaming (Geometry Dash, Minecraft, Terraria, ADOFAI and others)) It works surprisingly well. The only problem is the battery and the fact that I could have gotten something better for the price but i was in a hurry. It uses a I5 6200u, 12GB of LPDDR3 (idk why the guy who sold it put that), a 500GB SSD and it even supports Windows Hello
