This SOC is a winner. Incredible levels of CPU efficiency and iGPU performance. Real-world gaming being basically equal to B390 is a pleasant surprise too.

YouTube/Just Josh measured bad 1% FPS lows of all Arc B390 laptops (youtu.be/jduWl1J_4lQ?t=630). This is disappointing and I hope it can be fixed.
