The fuck are Copilot+ PC's? Are they regular PC's with Copilot+ branding?

pcs with enough NPU compute power to run copilot locally in a reasonable performance level.

e. g with AMDs current laptops, the 7840 can do 10 tops, the 8840, which is core config/gpu wise, effectively the same cpu but with a larger NPU, pushing it to 16 tops for AI use.

outside of ai use, the one benefit to ai is that igpus are better and more of a focus, so expect low end laptop gaming to get a lot better.
