It falls short of +50-54% performance/watt claims for RDNA3 in general, but it's a decent improvement on top of the already good Radeon 680M. Although it might be heavily dependent on the memory speed used, based on some of those worse benchmark leaks.
If it's enough to push games that were getting around 45-50 FPS in 1080p up to 60 FPS, then that's a good result. That's the golden line where many people wouldn't care about getting more performance, other than to keep it locked at 60 with no dips.
Strix Point could be very interesting. It's confirmed RDNA3+, whatever that entails. If AMD wants any better graphics than 780M, they might need something drastic like more memory channels or 3D cache. The CPU side will be killer, with Zen 5, possibly alongside Zen 4c and totaling more than 8 cores. The CPU performance of recent APUs is already obscenely high.

AMD Phoenix CPUs will surpass the Apple M2 in artificial intelligence in performance and efficiency and that is what the portable public expects with ZEN 4 Phoenix if you want to know more simply write AMD ZEN 4 Phoenix in your search engine
I will have to see the XDNA accelerator in Phoenix doing something useful to believe it. Intel might be fumbling but AMD has fumbled AI in relation to Nvidia.
If I see Phoenix running Stable Diffusion "fast" on system memory, even if it's worse than discrete desktop GPUs, then I'll be impressed and looking forward to generational improvements. BTW, you are not going to be running ChatGPT from so-called "OpenAI", actual open source is where it's at. I guess you might have meant some client-side AI operations that build upon server-side ChatGPT responses, but whatever.
