Kind of a dumb question but I’m genuinely curious: is this a worthwhile upgrade? I run a server with a single vm and a few dozen docker containers. I’m intrigued by performance and efficiency cores and whether there would be a noticeable effect on both energy efficiency and performance vs the 12th gen. I’ve looked at the cpu benchmark comparison and see the numbers and there looks like a big increase in performance with little downside other than the cost of doing it. Any input is appreciated.

Thank you for the reply! I am probably in the same boat as you when it comes to tangible energy/cost savings but was curious. Maybe if I can catch a deal and get a decent amount for my existing CPU, I’ll pull the trigger
