Imagine getting this outdated RDNA3.5 APU that can't do modern, DLSS-like, hardware ML upscaling, like RDNA4 can.

The leaked FSR4 INT8 looks so much better on RDNA3 / RDNA3.5, than what RDNA3 / RDNA3.5 officially support, but AMD is quiet about it (they are not the good guys (anymore/if they ever were)):

Precisely. This laptop is way too expensive too. It needs a 33% price cut to be competitive. No more than $1299 for 32GB. What does a 16GB Radeon GPU even offer over the competing 8GB 5060?
