As stated previously, AMD has an uphill battle against Intel for a lot of reasons that have nothing to do with performance or any actual tangible metrics.
The ASUS is interesting because it sort of targets an undeserved niche at a very reasonable price point: 14" (and smaller) gaming laptops.
Most gaming laptops start at 15.6" and the really powerful ones practically require a 17" chassis to move enough air around.
I wonder if it would make sense for AMD to work with OEMs to squeeze their chips into form factors that Intel is unwilling or unable to pay much attention to.
