News AMD Claims Ryzen AI Max+ 395 “Strix Halo” APU With Radeon 8060S Up To 68% Faster Than RTX 4070 mobile In 1080p Gaming Benchmarks

[Kaching999]

AMD has shared more gaming benchmarks of its Ryzen AI Max+ 395 "Strix Halo" APU and its integrated Radeon 8060S GPU. AMD did share a few benchmarks on the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 during its CES showcase, but now they have some more numbers available that compare the chip to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 laptop GPU. The numbers for the RTX 4070 were obtained on the ASUS ROG Flow Z13 laptop, and several games were used at 1080p High Settings. The numbers are native performance, so you aren't looking at upscaling or frame generation involved in these.

In all games tested (17 in total), the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 was able to outperform the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 laptop GPU. Now, it is not known what power configurations were used to test both systems, but here we can see the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 and its Radeon 8060 iGPU offering over 50% better performance and going as high as 68% in Borderlands 3. On average, this is a 23.2% improvement versus the RTX 4070, which is quite decent as it shows that AMD's integrated chips can now compete with high-end/mainstream laptop GPUs.

The benchmarks have been released and honestly this looks pretty good, not quite 4070 laptop gaming performance but on par and sometimes better than the 4060 laptop gpu and this is all on an iGPU where the whole system draws less than 70 watts mostly.

Finally something good after the GPU launch madness.

Bro this is huge! Power efficiency is crazy..

Just when I thought of getting Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 with 890m, AMD dropped a better one.

This keeps getting better, even Intel's lunar lake one with Ultra 7 258v is very good with power efficiency.

I wonder how these perform for AI tasks like running LLMs locally. Being able to allocate more VRAM sounds like a nifty feature for these tasks especially

Check out the hardware canucks video they go over it in that , it can easily run a 14b model with about 25 tokens/s, not anywhere close to the M4 due to it running on the proprietary MLX, but will only get better with adoption of ROCm in different workloads. It can do even better with the text generation models than 25tk/s but the ASUS z13 only comes with a maximum of 32gb of ram so the cpu kinda starts to starve for resources, after allocating anything less than 8gb of ram.

Will the ram be used as VRAM If so that seems great

Yeah it can support upto 128gb of Unified memory and you can allocate upto 96gb as VRAM.
