I've not had a v4 to play with otherwise I would certainly look into it. I have seen a couple of v4 pre-production CPU's reports show that BCLK strap should be supported, I don't know if it is so for production chips. People can check if MSR 0x61E is present which is required but do note that...
Is it normal behavior to have one core at 37 and the rest 28?
While the exact same method might not work for V4 there was a poster earlier who showed that bclk straps might be possible. IOW it might be possible to OC both CPU and RAM so 28 becomes 35 or 46...
Well I often wonder if some of the mobile chips are desktop rejects because they didn't make the thermal spec so lowered clocks and TDP to compensate then not even sold at a lower price but at a premium. I've had a desktop i3 undervolted at the same clock (2.7GHz IIRC) as a "U" (low voltage)...
Higher temperatures for same clocks and workload can dissipate more power. However isn't reducing temperatures going to encourage people to overclock higher and draw even more power resulting in even higher current draw and possibly faster degradation over time?
Zero to none going by this post a couple of months ago
Sounds like there's probably going to be some happy laptop users, well those with deep enough pockets.
The Xeon's also use M to denote supported memory capacity such as the 8180 and 8180M
Anandtech have already quoted an i9-8950HK mobile CPU for laptops. Shouldn't confuse a mobile i9 with DT i9.

I already linked some laptops in the previous post above yours...
Well the last extreme (X) mobile was the Haswell i7-4930MX / 4940MK AFAIK and those chips commanded a listed price of $1000+ but who know's how much the manufacturer's paid after any concessions they may have had. From the results I've seen the 4930MX / 4940MX didn't seem to perform that much...
Sometimes similar but with different features. Sometimes different, integrated graphics for example.
Why don't laptop manufacturers use the much cheaper DT dual core i3 instead of the more expensive mobile dual core i7, just because of packaging or something else?
DT and mobile are two...
