AMD Radeon RX 6600 series to feature up to 8GB GDDR6 memory and PCIe Gen4 x8 interface

"The card will rely on the x8 width of the interface."
Now the kicker about that is if you have a pci-e 3.0 motherboard, you will get pci-e 3.0 8x which has caused issues in the past with AMD cards. As an example, the 5500XT came with 8 lanes as well and you got lower performance with 3.0 vs 4.0.
"Igor was also able to gain access to a BIOS of Navi 23 Mobile Radeon SKU. Thus, we can see a much lower maximum clock speed than desktop variants (2350 MHz vs the rumored 2684 MHz)."
Now those are max clocks, we don't know what the actual clocks for the mobile versions will be yet but it will be interesting to see how these perform as AMD has been performing quite a bit better than Nvidia at lower resolutions in desktop.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 graphics card cost 3 times more than NVIDIA MSRP in Europe vs 6000 series costing 2 times more
We did just have another mining crash so maybe it will come back to normal soon enough? Please?
Intel 11th Generation Core Tiger Lake-H Performance Review: Fast and Power Hungry

It trades blows against the 5000 series in cpu related benchmarks and workloads. Sometimes Intel is faster, sometimes AMD is faster. While it's a big increase in performance compared to 10th gen laptops... There's one big problem... And that's power. Typically it will hang around 65 Watts which then will Thermal Throttle to 35 Watt compared to Ryzen 5000s 35-45 Watts. Here is peak power during Turbo:
No gaming tests yet which is what I am waiting to see. I will post it when the gaming reviews are out. Overall it's kinda annoying because with AMD, you get the god tier battery life but with Intel, you get additional features like Thunderbolt 4 and PCI-e gen 4 SSDs and more GPU lanes. No perfect CPU in the mobile space this generation. It does feel like a preview of Alder Lake S since Intel can't make Tiger Make power efficient with 10nm.
