Could it simply be that the 3070 is MAX-Q and the 3060 Max-P? After all, the Intel system seems to be pulling a lot more power going by the very elaborate cooling yet much higher noise level and it drains the battery faster.

Also, could the CPU be some limiter here in some tests? The 5900HS has it's Power limit at least 10W lower than the 11900H and the CPU has the same amount of heatpipes as the GPU does.

It almost seems like you want AMD to be bad here.

According to Asus website:

NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3060 Laptop GPU
With ROG Boost up to 1525MHz at 80W (95W with Dynamic Boost)

NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3070 Laptop GPU
With ROG Boost up to 1390MHz at 80W (100W with Dynamic Boost)

https://rog.asus.com/laptops/rog-zephyrus/2021-rog-zephyrus-g15-series/spec

So they are both Max Q however the 3070 has more cores but at lower clock.

The CPU could be but the fire strike graphics score which is GPU bound is also very close.

As for me wanting AMD to be bad here... The video in this case was very positive towards AMD version and I also mentioned that the Intel version is significantly louder with 1 hour less battery life even though it is thicker and has better airflow. I do have problems with AMD mobile (gen 3 ssds and 8gpu lanes) as I also have problems with Intel mobile (heat and worse battery) and this is one of those videos that showed off some of the characteristics of each version.

Should check out the Razer 14.
