iGPU RX890M

eGPU RX 7600M XT

The following analysis details the performance delta between the integrated graphics and an external GPU setup for Black Myth: Wukong on a handheld system.

Performance Comparison (1080p High)
OS : SteamOS
Release : 3.9

Metric iGPU (Z2 Extreme / Radeon 890M) eGPU GMKtec (RX 7600M XT)
Average FPS 42 63 (+50%)
Minimun FPS 29 48 (+65%)
Maximum FPS 49 48 (+51%)

Optimization Analysis

  • 60 FPS Threshold: Implementation of the eGPU enables the system to maintain a frame rate above the 60 FPS benchmark, ensuring consistent fluidity. The iGPU configuration maintains an average of 42 FPS with significant drops to 29 FPS.
  • Low 5th Stability: The Low 5th performance increases from 37 FPS to 58 FPS. This shift indicates a drastic reduction in micro-stuttering and a more stabilized frame time delivery.
  • SteamOS + RADV: Benchmark results validate the efficiency of RADV (Mesa) drivers in managing RDNA 3 architecture within a Linux environment.
  • USB4 Throughput: A 50% performance increase via direct USB4 connection confirms effective external bandwidth utilization for high-fidelity 1080p settings.
