your words "in some tests"
sooooo based on what your saying, if it excels in test that you would use on a daily basis then it is good for you. most of the test where PII did better was single threaded... and if you don't care for single threaded performance then why would you not buy it based on tests that don't pertain to your usage ?
Because it still consumes more power and costs more to do it compared to Thuban.
It's just especially underwhelming when compared to the Intel offerings.
