Wow amazing chip. Running at 30W in turbo. It'll be fun & exciting to see portable units compete for increases cooling, pushing this higher and higher. Of course it'll need to also throttle down (and optionally shut off some extra cores) on battery, but I think people radically under-rate how incredibly effective that can be.

Also worth point out the upcoming Ryzen 8000 leaks, with Strix Point & Strix Halo APUs that look absolutely absurdly fast, with huge ram bandwidth, in 15-45W and 20W-120W (correspondingly) power points. I cannot wait to have small decks with these beasts. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Massive-AMD-Ryzen-8000-Zen-5-l...
