I don't understand why people here voted 7S Gen 4 for just 0.2GHz clock speed over 4K@60fps and download/upload speed edge of 7 Gen 3 🀦

Hello, Actually sd 7s gen 4 has slightly better CPU cores than sd 7 gen 3...... but in GPU, sd 7 gen 3 excels here..... plus both are tsmc 4nm same node.... so, in GPU demanding games, sd 7 gen 3 excels here.......

Vote wisely. A chipset that came out 2 years later and is only 4% more powerful is not interesting at all!
