Holy shit is Zen 3 a beast in laptops:

And all that in a tiny thin laptop that makes last year's G14 look bulky by comparison. Only bad point is that the GPU is virtually the same as in the Ryzen 4000 laptops.

Tiger Lake-H can't come soon enough for Intel

The 5980HS is running at up-to 35-54w TDP (Up to OEM)... So it's no surprising she is a performer.

The Ryzen 7 5800U is the more impressive chip at a 25w TDP.

GPU performance wasn't going to move much when the GPU is the same number of CU's, slight bump in clock... But the biggest issue that holds it back is the DDR4 3200mhz memory.

Uhm... no? That's the 5980HX you're describing there. The HS must run at 35W stock (else AMD, who is very stringent on this point after having been screwed over by a lack of oversight on their part with past APUs, will ship the 5900H instead), but can optionally run at a slightly higher TDP, 45W when the dGPU is off in this model. And afaik 45W is the limit for the HS model. If you want to go past 45W, you need the HX - or use a desktop CPU set to a lower TDP with a custom board.

I agree that the 5800U will certainly be more impressive, but I haven't seen a test of that one yet.
