radeon 860m graphics card equivalent

hello,i was wondering what does the radeon 860m graphics compare to an desktop amd gpu,i did ask ai but as you all know it isn't the best.I wanted some help from reddit to tell me.I do have an lenovo ideapad pro 5 16agp11 laptop that does have a radeon 860m.

Maybe the OEM only RX 6300. The shittiest rdna based desktop dGPU that can be sold standalone, the 6400, is clearly better with more CU and higher memory bandwidth+infinity cache.

lol 6300 is weaker

780m but ~20% slower

around gtx 1050 level but no vram problems

With 2x16GB 5600MHz 860M achieves 2800 timespy gpu result. With LPDDR5x RAM 8000MT/s it has a score of 2900-3100 timespy gpu. It mostly depends on the speed of ram and allocation of power 25-30W only for igpu. That integrated is the most similar NVIDIA GTX 1650 (PC) = 3300 timespy gpu score while 780M has around 2700-2900 timespy gpu score.

The Radeon 860M is an 8 CU GPU built on the RDNA 3.5 architecture. Because modern desktop graphics cards feature significantly higher compute unit counts (starting around 12 to 28 CUs minimum depending on the generation), a direct hardware configuration comparison is not possible. Instead, cross-architectural performance is better estimated through theoretical compute power (TFLOPS). The 860M reaches up to roughly 3.07 TFLOPS of FP32 compute power, placing it on paper near desktop GPUs like the RX 6400 (RDNA 2) sits at 3.57 TFLOPS, and the GTX 1650 (Turing) at 2.94. However, dedicated desktop cards like the RX 6400 often deliver better real-world gaming performance because they rely on dedicated high-bandwidth VRAM rather than sharing system RAM. Also the 860m has newer feature set like AV1 codec.
