          AMD has been proving that x86_64 can be at least as power efficient as ARM over the last few years (given a floor of performance for like a phone/laptop… I doubt it can get as low power as a little ARM microcontroller)

          It seems like x86 was getting so power hungry because of Intel’s laser focus on single core performance

            Are there any good mini PCs with AMD CPUs for low spec/power? Only really aware of intel N150s

            Thats pretty cool actually, Balance between performance and power efficiency.
