I am actually really interested in next gen Rembrandt APUs rumored to be coming early next year. The top-end chip is rumored to use TSMCs 6nm node which comes with an 18% area reduction which should at least lower costs. It should also come with 8c16t of zen 3+ cores. Not sure of the difference between zen3 and zen 3+ yet but zen3 comes with 19% more performance over the zen2 cores in the steam deck so it should at least match that if not add a few more percentage points. As for the GPU I would think they would offer at least 8 RDNA2 cores. The steam deck has 8 cores and the current APU lineup has 8 vega cores. I wish we could get back to having 12 like the original APUs did but so long as we don't regress I think it will be okay. The memory subsystem likely won't be too different since the steam deck already uses LPDDR5 unless it was supporting LPDDR5X.

Zen 3? Whoa.... you'd think they were trying to fit a Threadripper 3990X in there.
