I'm hoping it's a 12 core. Then I would be very tempted. If it's just another 8 core, I'll wait for the next gen and pcie 4.
Why?

12 cores is neat, but a 12 core 15 watt chip? for anything multithreaded, it would suck chode compared to the 8 core, constantly TDP limited, unable to boost at all. zen 2 isnt THAT power efficient.

If this is just the U variant, im thinking of an X version or a G version more aggressively taking on the portable gaming line. And ofcorse we have room for more battery life.
