Yeah that would be the Delta, but it's significantly slower (~6 times at multicore). The N100 is just a 9th gen Celeron after all. I'm more or less looking for a complete powerhouse in a smaller than ITX form factor for extremely compute intensive multithreaded stuff.

You can do a mini-pc with up to a Ryzen 9 8945HS. Which at 65-85W is a bit of a beast, as far as 8-cores goes on the sub-itx size. The 8(8|9)4(0|5)H(S) are all pretty good options though. Just got a Beelink SER8 (8845HS) for Chimera, and it's been running very nicely.

The N100 is great, hopefully not affected by this problem though I'm not sure yet. It sips power and I've really liked it for homelab use where memory and IO are more important than core count (because most of the times things are idle, but one wants to keep VMs in memory and oversub the cores).

Or something with an N97, which performs better but is less power efficient. e.g. the new Odroid H4's
