So the comparison previous Chromebook is an A6-9220C, a single module/2 thread 6W chip. Surprised it doesn't get a harder hammering than that tbh.

I’m personally surprised you can make use of 8 CPU threads on a chromebook! Battery life must be legendary though, has to be a huge benefit.
I did a double take when I noticed the 10 CPU cores before I realised it was zen+

The 3700C is definitely one hell of a chromebook - looks like AMD has a fair stock of zen+ chips to get rid of?
