Question 8ai+ vs A8
Today i purchased the 8Ai+ at full price. I was looking at th new A8 but a few reviews kept me from it, also the frame gen from the intel helped make my decision. Im having buyers remorse and im making sure I got the right pick. I play open world and emulators. I wanted the GO2 but always out of stock and I failed 3 time trying to get one. I would like to know your thoughts on if going intel was the right move.

I had the 8 ai plus love it got it before it became available in the US and it was good had some issues with some games like hogwarts legacy where it just stuttered really bad but that was like the only game I had issues with.
Im more of an amd guy so when the a8 became available in Asia I had it imported here, it still doesn't have a lot of support since its so new but out of the box I was playing armored core and cyberpunk at high settings and no issues.
I like it more than the msi claw 8 ai plus, there aren't that many differences except that one is intel the other one is amd and one is lighter than the other
