AMD 7600, 7600X, 9600X, 7600X3D, 7500f, 8300G, 8500G, 8600G
Intel 14100

Just off the top of my head, didn't even include any laptop CPUs.

A customer wanted me to help set up their new laptop for them (not ordered through me of course, <am i a joke to you.jpg>), it came with a Intel i7 150U, which is yet another i7 dual-core laptop CPU, with 8 more baby cores.

Apparently Intel is thinking, "if it worked ten years ago, why not now?"!

Cheap and not having many P cores keeps the power usage/heat down.

Yes and something like the 7540U must be really awful at doing that, right?

Well, to be fair, the E cores in that processor are for more performant than the Atom cores rebranded an "Pentium" in low end laptops of some years ago. There should be plenty of processing power in that cpu for routine use.
