The verdict says the TDP being so low makes this sometimes perform worse than a 3070.

The Strix is a step up from the Zephyrus in ASUS' lineup, right?

I think it's mostly a power management/thermal thing though. She uses it for work and school and consistently gets 8-10 hours of battery life. I've turned it on silent mode and turned the fans off and turned settings to medium and played stuff like borderlands for a couple hours unplugged.
A full power 3080m at 160 watts with a top tier cooling solution should handily and consistently beat a 6800m by 5-25%.

It has performed very well although battery life is less than advertised (ofc) and had some issues with the ports not working sometimes.
Just gonna buy a Dell laptop next since they are #1 in reliability and that's what I need right now.
