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.

You are right of course. I should have double checked my sources rather than rely on wikipedias CPU table.

Yeah, whoever made those entries didn't even check his own sources correctly:

https://www.amd.com/en/products/apu/amd-ryzen-9-5980hs

https://www.amd.com/en/products/apu/amd-ryzen-9-5980hx

Notice the complete lack of any cTDP on the HS model? It just says 35W - and nothing else.
