From my perspective, the #RyzenAI HX 390 MAX series has a very bad value proposition over $1,000.

- For #Gaming, you have RTX 4060M **LAPTOPS** at $800 with a decent CPU.
- For #AI, you can make a good PC for $1,500.
- For battery life, there is a thing called a MacBook.

That's probably why they're not being pushed to the market so hard. Pricing wise, it doesn't make sense.

Folks with AMD RX 9070 and Linux: enable overdrive by adding this to your kernel arguments: amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff. Reboot so that the next steps are available.

Install CoreCtrl and in the System > Software tab, make sure you are on Mesa 25.1.0 and kernel 6.13.5+. In the Profiles tab, change Performance mode to Advanced, change the Power profile to 3D Fullscreen. Set voltage offset to -10mV and reduce the maximum memory MHz by 100MHz (yes, do it).

With the lower voltage, the GPU core clock will get closer to XT levels, and reducing the memory clock a tiny bit will make it stable. Your non XT will perform better, cooler and stable. Saw about 10-20fps more in Returnal with these settings!

PS: tested on Fedora 41, Gigabyte RX 9070 Gaming OC card.
