Laptop Intel E-Cores vs AMD Dragon Range

So! Both new Intel and AMD mobile cpu's are out and both of them seem to be absolute beasts. (~2k cinebench R23 single, 33k R23 multi)

7945hx: 16 cores,

Max. Boost Clock
Up to 5.4GHz


i9-13900hx: 24 cores:
8 performance cores
12 E-cores

P-cores max. 5.40 GHz
E-cores max 3.90 Ghz



As of reading tons of benchmarks, single core for these laptop cpu's are essentially 1:1 in Cinebench single AND multi thread, winner depending on mostly cooling settings and solutions.
But to the big question: Will Intel's E-cores scale?

The AMD is very slow to enter the market, I am really intriqued of current offerings for 13900hx laptops.
But I'm afraid of "only 8 p-cores" and the limiting factor of E-cores.

As we know the old truth that DAW performance will be as good as your worst core.
Is it still so with new E-cores, do you have any news about that?

So:
16 "real" AMD cores
vs 8 "real" + 12 "E-cores" for Intel.

Common sense says AMD but I get it, cpu architechture is not that simple.
Especially when they bench so closely in rendering applications.
PS. Cubase is recommending to disable E-cores, so that's concerning - you would use only 8 P-cores instead of 16 AMD cores.
