    You’re deluding yourself into thinking this iGPU is more powerful than it actually is.

    Have you seen benchmarks comparing it to some of the competition?

      Honestly I don’t even care if it’s half as fast as a 4070, that’s fast enough for me.

      In workstation workloads, some stuff just will not run unless you have a ton of VRAM, and running slower is fine. Or in other cases, you get a gigantic speedup from the virtue of simply having tons of VRAM. That’s the value, not pure core speed compared to some 8GB GPU.

      But I am not deluding myself, the core performance is in the ballpark of a laptop 7700S: https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-RX-8060S-Benchmarks-and-Specs.942049.0.html

      It’s also (on paper) slower than my desktop 3090, but in practice, an order of magnitude faster for stuff that struggles to fit on the 3090.
