One does not simply reduce TDP 2x without any impact on performance. Does that mean lower throttling threshold or what?

Can’t find info on the difference between T and H processors. I’ve had terrible experience with U processor, but H works great so far and I’m curious where T sits on the spectrum.

Do you mean compared to H? This is strange because my current H processor is in a laptop - it’s hard to imagine a more constrained space yet they managed to make it work well.
