Performance close to NVIDIA's mobile RTX 2050?

• The upcoming AMD Radeon 800M iGPUs powered by Ryzen AI 300 APUs deliver a significant performance improvement over their predecessors, based on the RDNA 3.5 architecture and with performance close to that of NVIDIA's mobile RTX 2050.
• The MSI laptop model equipped with AMD's flagship Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 CPU with Radeon 890M iGPU will be 20% more efficient than its predecessor, with increased scores in Cinebench R23 and 3DMark Time Spy.

The next-generation AMD Radeon 800M iGPUs powering the Ryzen AI 300 APUs are said to offer a noticeable performance improvement over their predecessors. Based on the RDNA 3.5 architecture, it should deliver performance close to that of NVIDIA's mobile RTX 2050.

According to the Golden Pig Upgrade Pack on Bilibili, the machine powered by AMD's Ryzen AI 9 300 series processor offered a roughly 20% performance improvement over its predecessor. To be more precise, the leaker is talking about +2000 points in single-core and +20000 points in multi-core in Cinebench R23, as well as 3600 points in the 3DMark Time Spy GPU test.

The MSI laptop in question is likely to be powered by the flagship Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, which has 12 Zen 5 cores and 24 threads. This processor is equipped with a Radeon 890M iGPU unit that includes 16 RDNA 3.5 compute units at a speed of about 2900 MHz. Mostly, we do not have the energy budget allocated by the constructor at this time, the higher TDP car has higher levels on the tendance of the higher CPU booster, more performance at lower speeds and automation. the battery.

In graphics, this puts AMD's solution within reach of NVIDIA's custom GeForce RTX 2050 mobile GPU, with its 50W consumption. For desktop users, this is the equivalent of a Radeon RX 570, which I've been using for quite some time. Driver updates will likely close this small gap and outperform NVIDIA's custom GPU – despite it being a two-year-old model. Depending on the minimum possible power consumption, these chips could become the standard for portable gaming devices.

However, we cannot be 100% sure of these results before the official launch in July. At least they have something to look forward to, as the NPU doesn't seem to be the center of attention now that Microsoft has delayed its support for Copilot+ AI.
