They have to find a way beside Intel which they currently only can compete with in terms of price.

AMD APUs are vastly superior to Intel. Try playing any decent games with an Intel APU.....

In fact for my next laptop I am going to buy a laptop with a 1080p screen and an A10 APU

 

Right now I have a quad i7 and an Nvidia GT650M GPU with a 1366x768 screen


But APUs aren't the topic here - it's about a new CPU core. Generally I don't like gaming laptops - they are just not made for serious gaming. Power restrictions, thermal aspects, much noise due to heat, often bad screens to play on.  The inability to upgrade them was planned years ago (I think MXM interface it was called) but as I quit gaming on PC severaly ago, too, I didn't follow the stuff like I did before I quit.

You do have a point there.

 

But my laptop can run Skyrim at 1080p at 50 FPS with ultra HD textures.  But my next laptop (with the AMD A10 APU) will be a bit less powerful but that is ok because I seriously play indie games on my PC 90% of the time... Good use of my quad-core i7 and dedicated GPU lol.

The A10 (I am estimating) will play Skyrim at 1080p at 50 FPS on probably medium settings. That is enough power for me. I am just saying that no Intel APU could accomplish this
