What is the difference between the Ryzen Z1 vs Ryzen Z1 Extreme?
- Z1 (non-Extreme) is like a Ryzen 5 (12 core) and has integrated Radeon 740M (256 shaders)
- Z1 Extreme is like Ryzen 7 (16 core) and has integrated Radeon 780M (768 shaders)

What are the gaming performance differences?
- the performance for general usage and 2D gaming is not noticeable
- heavy 3D games will be significant since the 780M is up to 3 times faster than the 740M depending on the game being played

Link for comparison for Radeon 780M and 740M:

How does this perform against the Steam Deck?
- This falls short (at least 5-25% slower) of matching the Steam Deck in terms of overall gaming performance.

I hear the extreme is the only version worth getting.

I picked up the Z1 non extreme version a couple weeks ago and have been surprised at how capable it is. The trick is to load the AMD fluid motion frame drivers from AMD's site. Asus hasnt published their update yet. I went from 18fps to 60+FPS on palworld at 720p.

They should just make this the permanent price. Nobody is paying 600 for this underpowered device!

It does make sense to get this one where all you need is a handheld PC for emulation, some web browsing and emailing. Also works well for cloud gaming.
