I just wish APU's were better for gaming than they are now. Having a tiny PC that could play games at 1080p would be awesome. For now it's just good for emulation and non graphically intense games.
They are actually pretty decent though? At least all the ones since Zen 3+ (Radeon 680M, 780M etc)
I have the previous model, the UM780 XTX (same iGPU - Radeon 780M) and it's been very decent for 1080p gaming (medium-high, depending on the game). Even 1440p is playable depending on your game/settings. Cyberpunk 2077 for instance runs perfectly at 70FPS on 1440p low, which is incredible if you think about how this game caused so much trouble when it first came out.
I also have a ThinkPad with a Zen3+ APU (Radeon 680M), and it can run Forza Horizon 4 at Ultra settings and 60FPS locked.
On both these machines, I game on Linux (Bazzite and Arch), so it's pretty awesome that I can run Windows games and get so much performance with cheap hardware, and using open-source drivers.
So yeah, these are some really great times for APU / mini PC / AMD / Linux fans.
