This video should answer the question as to why this launch was very understated from Intel. If you like troubleshooting and discovering issues with software and possibly even firmware this is a great product. If you don't like those things or if you aren't technically inclined when it comes to PC DIY then this isn't for you.
I will be doing gaming benchmarks for mostly games that weren't covered by other reviewers. Expect games like Genshin Impact, FFXIV, Elden Ring, Nioh 2, Atelier Ryza, and more.
