The Ryzen Z1 Extreme SoC with Zen 4 cores having AVX-512 and all the other architectural improvements makes it a quite capable SoC along with the RDNA3 graphics capabilities. It will be interesting to see where else the Ryzen Z1 ends up. With Linux not giving any fuss around the Z1, it's good news if the Z1 appears in any embedded/industrial type applications.
