    Interestingly the X Elite doesn’t even support hardware accelerated ray tracing which even the 8 Gen 2 supported.

        Blender’s Cycles engine can make use of hardware accelerated ray tracing and this will hopefully help the M3 catch up with NVIDIA GPUs.

        In barely a year, hardware ray tracing will be part of virtually every x86 consumer CPU being sold. People do more than game with their computers.

      Likely they’re either targeting laptops which don’t need GPU power like productivity/business class machines, or they expect to have OEMs pair them with dGPUs if need be.
