new ARM processors will start a new trend(equivalent to Apple M2 cip performance per wat)from next year....maybe it is wise to hold your horses for a while

Maybe new Processors but they won’t do shit if the software isn’t there and Windows for Arm is still a big pile of shit.

Apple is doing here a great job with Rosetta 2 having run older x86_64 software on their silicon. From what I have seen Windows isn’t really good at it. And not sure if Linux’ bindet has good performance and compatibility if you have some software where no aarch64 binary exists.

I would be very hesitant to buy a none Apple ARM based PC tbh.

Couple linux projects like box64, they're great so far but not far enough to have the optimizations to run at Rosetta speeds.

Though games are playable on android
