I read a 18CU and 24CU rumor long ago. If that is pointless then so be it. Thanks for clarifying.

Is that due to a shortage of the chips, or that Intel has a firm grip on the partners?

AMD has offered better mobile CPU:s than Intel for a long time now, yet the flagship models från Lenovo, Dell, etc continue to use Intel CPU:s. Doesn’t make sense unless Intel has exclusivity/offers a lot money to their partners to keep exclusivity.

Witht that said, it is my impression that the number of models with AMD CPU:s have slowly increased.

The desktop APU rumors continue to disappoint. No 7700G? No 7900G with at least 18CU:s? No imminent launch, instead talk about CES or even more far away? And then next year nothing happens. Cycle repeats for 8000G.
