WebP Image Encode benchmark with settings of Encode Settings: Default. Ubuntu 23.04 - Perf was the fastest.

Crafty benchmark with settings of Elapsed Time. Windows 11 - Turbo was the fastest.

TSCP benchmark with settings of AI Chess Performance. Ubuntu 23.04 - P-State Active + Perf was the fastest.

Many of these workloads obviously aren't relevant to the ASUS ROG Ally or gaming handhelds in general, but the tests are driven with a focus on the Ryzen Z1 Extreme. It will be interesting to see if the Ryzen Z1 Extreme finds its way into any thin clients or adapted to appear in any embedded/IoT type platforms, etc.

LuxCoreRender benchmark with settings of Scene: DLSC, Acceleration: CPU. Windows 11 - Turbo was the fastest.

With the multi-threaded LuxCore renderer, when in the "performance" ACPI platform profile and using the AMD P-State active driver, the average SoC power consumption was 40 Watts with a peak of 54 Watts.

The Ryzen Z1 Extreme temperature within the ROG Ally hit 95 degrees in this demanding benchmark, but again not really relevant to the gaming handheld itself.

LuxCoreRender benchmark with settings of Scene: Danish Mood, Acceleration: CPU. Windows 11 - Turbo was the fastest.

dav1d benchmark with settings of Video Input: Summer Nature 4K. Windows 11 - Turbo was the fastest.

In occasional benchmarks the Windows 11 performance in the "turbo" mode still managed to outperform the different Ubuntu Linux configurations.
