Specifications of Intel Core i9-12900K, i7-12700K and i5-12600K Alder Lake CPUs leak out

While better than Rocket Lake in terms of PL2 wattage which was 250W... It's still quite high compared Zen 3. Still as Zen 4 is supposed to be upping the wattage as well and the next gen GPUs are rumored to require even more power, don't let go of your high wattage PSUs just yet!

Lenovo laptops silently stripped of H.264 encoder in BIOS updates in Germany
"The lack of this encoder causes numerous issues on user's devices, such as Shadowplay crashing, OBS failing to record/stream, and even the Oculus Quest 2 failing to stream video from the laptop to the headset over USB. This also makes many major use cases for high-power gaming hardware (streaming, video editing, or just recording your screen) difficult to do on these laptops. "
"The issue only seems to affect Lenovo gaming laptops sold in Germany, potentially due to a legal battle between Nokia and Lenovo that had been ongoing for some time"
Between Alienware's missing Cuda Cores and now this with Lenovo, it keeps getting harder to trust these laptop companies! Of course, you can always flash an older BIOS in to re-enable the feature.

Not sure why this wasn't enabled from the gecko but it should give a nice 10 fps boost to Dell G15 and Alienware M15 R5/6 owners with the 1080p screen that's not supposed to have this
