Ryzen 8000 series CPUs have some serious concerns

Great CPU w/GPU embedded... ensure to install AMD drivers
Works great, just ensure to install AMD Ryzen 8700G drivers from AMD website.Windows (10/11) will install just a default driver that do not enable the embedded GPU.Look at the Windows Task Manager, if you don't see the GPU at the bottom... it is not enabled.Before the AMD drivers installed, just reproducing a 1080HD full screen video made the CPU load jump to ~75% and CPU fan speed to max and noise.After installing AMD drivers... CPU load ~9%, GPU load ~3%... and CPU fan remains at minimum.Look at the screenshot attached, arrow on the bottom left.

Ein Hitzkopf!

Die üblichen Benchmarks habe ich alle gemacht und er liefert dabei Scores wie erwartet. Auch läuft das gesamte System völlig stabil unter W11 - von daher also alles OK. Beim ersten 3D-Spiel sind mir dann aber erstmals die Lüftergeräusche aufgefallen und ich habe mir die Temperaturen genauer angeschaut (siehe Bild). Dazu muss ich anmerken, dass ich den Boxed-Lüfter bereits gegen einen leistungsfähigen Tower-Kühler mit Heatpipes getauscht habe. Trotzdem liegt die Die-Temperatur bei einer Verlustleistung von 60W bei etwa 85-95°C (!). Läuft der Lüfter des Kühlers auf Volllast, komme ich auf 85°, ansonsten ist es entsprechend mehr. Dies ist wohl teils auch dem Umstand zu "verdanken", dass der Prozessor-Die nicht mit dem Heatspreader verlötet ist, sondern nur per Wärmeleitpaste Kontakt hat. Die Abwärme muss also insgesamt zwei Schichten Wärmeleitpaste durchdringen. Aber egal: ich werde demnächst noch versuchen, die Kühlung zu verbessern, trotzdem ist es für mich als Kunden eine Zumutung, einen Prozessor mit so einem schlechten thermischen Verhalten zu haben.
Der nächste Negativpunkt betrifft die hohe Stromaufnahme im Idle-Betrieb, also wenn nur der Windows-Desktop läuft und sonst nichts. Verglichen mit meinem alten System aus Ryzen 7 5700G und ansonsten vergleichbaren Komponenten wie SSD und 32GB Ram, habe ich nun die doppelte Stromaufnahme von knapp 60W statt knapp 30W. Bei 12 Stunden Nutzung am Tag sind das auch mal eben ca. 50€ pro Jahr (!), die sinnlos verbraten werden. Und diese Summe schlage ich gedanklich natürlich auf den Kaufpreis auf und dann wird der Ryzen 7 8700G auf einmal ein teures Vergnügen. Die Prozessortemperatur und die angegebene Leistung im Idle waren für mich übrigens das Hauptindiz dafür, dass der Prozessor ursächlich ist für den hohen Grundverbrauch.
Zu dem boxed-Kühler muss man nicht viel sagen, er ist einfach unterdimensioniert und Schrott. Man kann ihn vielleicht für eine provisorische Inbetriebnahme mal verwenden, aber ansonsten wandert so etwas in den Müll.
Fazit: den Prozessor würde ich mir definitiv nicht ein zweites Mal kaufen.

8700G a desktop ROG ally Z1 extreme

On release it is needing a BIOS update to remove a cycling of power dropping. This is because "STAPM"; it behaves as a handheld Z1 extreme (and performs as one) A future update will remove this artefact.
EDIT Update v 2.02 already released!
The 780M internal graphics are on par with a gtx1650 or rx580/Rx6400. It has 12 CU based on RDNA3. The processing power is between 7600 and 7700x. I only plan to play light games at 1080p on this; Cyberpunk (see my experience below) and Baldur's Gate 3 can get good around 60 FPS. Assassin Creed Valhalla got 67. Some reviews did 1440p in games like Skyrim and God of War. I have another AM4-based PC for heavy gaming. A review got Ratchet & Clank >40 FPS at 1440p....
As an APU it benefits from multi-channel RAM. Don't use a single RAM, don't use 4 lanes either it's counterproductive; 2 is the sweet-spot. I use dual channel in a Asrock phantom ITX mobo.
For overclocking and to get the most out of this APU get a B650 minimum (but not Gigabyte, functions disabled) with 'PBO' enabled and 'EXPO/XMP setting to RAM if not manually OC. Do not get the cheaper A620 (potentially stock CPU only settings. PBO and EXPO is there but some say it doesn't truely enable.
Try to maximise the RAM frequency/ low CL for better performance; reviews mainly use 6000 or 6400 mhz. Some reviews have got it >7200mhz but that wasn't in a small form factor build like mine. Offical is 5200 but they hint 6000 is 'sweet spot'. 32GB is a must if you plan to play demanding games Like Alan Wake II (at low settings) you may not get the most out of the chip with just 16 GB. As an example with 16GB 5600mhz (2x8GB) in the system i got FPS 36-49 (No fidelity boost) Cyberpunk v2.0 with 8GB UMA vRAM.
Auto assigned vRAM is 0.3 and see's an improvement when set at 2GB (UMA 'game mode') but less so an improvement setting between 4-8GB as FPS seem within margin of error <5 FPS gained.
With 32GB 6800mhz with no fidelity boost and UMA v16GB the fps was 37-50 av 43.
With fidelity boost it av 60.5 (max 53-70)
Screen Space Reflection...disable this for better performance especially if trying 1440p. It could be said that 16GB is fine for most games at 1080p (except Allan Wake 2 clocking 19GB vRAM). If you want to try 1440p 32GB is a must.
The AI monitoring is a bit limited atm as AMD and windows task manager are being developed. It will allow some tasks to not dip into either the CPU or iGPU. NPU clocks at 1.6 Ghz with total throughput 39 TOPS (16 coming from the NPU). One example of applied use is in video calling background and filters. Not sure of significance but the APU can run windows windows AI Copilot.
Comes with a taller 'Spire' and not the 'Stealth' CPU cooler as described. Not sure why as both 8700G and 8600G are 65W. If all EXPO, PBO etc is applied for best performance it's more likely 156W so cooling options should be considered for such OC.
