1. 7600 thats dedicated gpu has nothing to do with this topic, and can be used as Example only, these Apu has rdna3 igp known as 780M, 760M, 740m etc.

2. All ryzen cpu which doesnt have 4 before last number dont use Zen 4 architecture. 7735 thats just rebrand of 6800 its Zen 3 cpu with rdna2 gpu so cant be used here either

He's the first techtuber to review the first all-AMD Laptop of 2023: Asus TUF A16 with the Ryzen 7735 and the 7600s. The 7600s is the lowest end SKU of RDNA 3 and it's based on the same 6nm as the previous 6000s series and judging from his tests, it's not that far off from the highest end 6000 series laptop GPU: the 6850m XT. Definitely, more than 12-15% that a lot of people are claiming and guesstimating.

      Hemedans, 26 Apr 2023Dont move Goalpost you claimed otherwise and failed to back... moreHow is that moving goalpost? He mentioned several times in his videos that they are beta drivers. He wasn't supposed to get that laptop in the first place, yet we are getting super early results. Things could be different when the first Z1E device comes out.

        LazyEngineer, 27 Apr 2023Z1 is literally 7040 with more tuned power profile which is... moreIndeed, it's essentially a Ryzen 7X40 mobile SoC/processor running off custom power constraints, based on its technology. Numbers promised by AMD however are more in line with results from higher-end 5000U series of processors. The Z1 (non-Extreme) barely can keep up with last-gen 6600H, but perhaps Z1 Extreme can turn that chip to dust. Seems interesting that older tech staying quite relevant albeit relegated into lesser position in tech food chain. And that's a win for some kind of customers.

          It's like calling a Hyper threaded 4 core cpu as 8 core cpu.

                Next Sony Handheld Game Console probably will use this.

                    AMD ZEN 4 7040 Phoenix has done its homework well and what many future buyers want is to see it in small and light notebooks under 2.2lb.
                    Hopefully we could see it on a Surface it would be a total success AMD at 4nm vs intel at 10nm that produces more heat and power consumption, which shortens the life of the processor

                        Everyone wants the new AMD ZEN 4 7040 Phoenix processors = LPDDR5 + RDNA 3 + USB 4.0 + HDMI 2.1 + artificial intelligence, total success and novelty of this 2023 the power of a PS5 in hand must be incredible, but what I find Particularly interested is the Artificial intelligence that has been added to this Zen 4 7040 Phoenix, what functions will it develop and what advantages will it bring us because it is great on laptops and more for the future Windows 12 and Office together with the new Direct XII but for games? ?? for games I wonder??? Or that function has been removed.

                            "dual issue rdna 3"

                            Chipsandcheese has good article explaining it

                            For example 7900Xtx has 61 Tflop in dual issue and 30TFlop without it, while 6900 xt has around 25 Tflop.

                            Marketing people will use that 61Tflop even though real life jump is 25 to 30 Tflop without Dual issue.

                            Same here that 8 Tflop they Quote is dual issue, but real world gpu perfomance gape between rdna2 to 3 isnt much. Its cpu where zen 4 has huge advantage over zen 3.

                              This would be awesome on a small laptop like the Surface laptop go 3
