I know they gotta do this to remain competitive and not concede that entire market subsection, but this is just one more product I won’t be buying.

Until AI can build me a custom wooden desk or mow my lawn (there’s already robots that do that), it’s just a novelty.

This article is just more like about benchmarks of Ryzen AI 300 vs Snapdragon X Elite vs Intel Ultra, not more than that.

The performance looks surprisingly close to the older 7940HS. Both look good. Shame they didn’t do a battery comparison between these two. The 7940HS doesn’t meet the Copilot requirements in it’s NPU, but I bet must people don’t care about that.

Will there be anything left to run it on in Windows 11 that isn’t ruined with ads and bloat?

Run Linux. Use KDE desktop for windows 7 like experience - I stopped using windows 7 years ago - as long as you don't trap yourself in garbage popular distro like Ubuntu or Debian - you'll be fine. Install Fedora with KDE, or Manjaro. After some learning curve (no disk mounting by default, wtf?) it does it's job pretty damn good, (unless you don't play games with anticheat ect.)

You’re right about “run Linux” but not sure what you’re on about with “trap yourself in garbage popular distro like Ubuntu or Debian” there.

Those distros are just fine; like anything else, use what is best for you, no reason to be negative.

I used Ubuntu initially - These distros aren't fine. Time wasted on fixing problems I shouldn't need to fix is wasted forever. It was a never ending stream of issues that wasted countless hours of my life

Is there a non-AI model?

I don’t want to pay money and watts for silicon I won’t use

It’s the kind of thing threat in a few years you’ll be glad to have because some tasks will be offloaded from the GPU to the NPU, one I can think of is the background blur in video conferencing software or microphone noise suppression

deegeese ,

GPUs are already really good at those, and GPUs are not a fad.

GPUs are already good at those things. But NPUs can be better at those things - and probably more energy efficient too - given optimized domain-specific models to work with.
