the really sad part too, is that intel has a respectable showing when it comes to synthetic benchmarks, meaning the performance is there, but intel is just so vastly far behind in game ready driver support that any lead in raw processing power they have losses by leaps and bounds to AMD's superior experience with drivers that have been crafted over the last couple decades.

Cool video! I was even thinking about getting the X1 mini AMD at one point. It's such a cool device. How does the gyro compare to the ROG Ally/Ally X? Just one thing about the TDP: The Phawx mentioned before that Intel measures the TDP differently, and when you look at the total power draw from the battery, you can see that the 25W AMD vs. 35W Intel both use around 45W of total power draw from the battery. So far the AMD it's clear king and the new generation looks really promising. Let's how the new intel compare against that.
The actual Gyro is pretty much the same , but it’s a better implementation on the Ally because you can set it for specific games. On the X1 mini you can set it and adjust it, but then you have to turn it on and off manually.
Intel on CPU are the best for productivity, but on Integrated Graphics or gaming I prefer AMD, Intel is just trying to catch up with AMD. Mostly are their drivers issues tho doesn’t make sense with all the power they be able to push.
I just don’t think this processor was designed with handhelds in mind. It needs so much power to feed all those cores that it just can’t keep up at tdp levels that make sense.

Вы не правильно сравниваете. Надо было брать одинаковые амд процессоры с разным размером экрана. Это было бы правильное сравнение. А потом можно было два маленьких или больших взять с разными процессорами.
The screen size doesn't matter, they are the same resolution. With game performance it is the resolution that determines the results, not the screen size. Plus the point of the the test was to see the difference between AMD and Intel.
Looks like Intel is getting lazy. I heard they're having issues with their 13th and 14th gen CPUs. I am glad I didn't upgrade from my 12th gen. I just upgraded my GPU from a 3090 to the 4090 card.
