AMD RX 6800M
RDNA 2 · 2021
AMD's RX 6800M was its flagship mobile GPU of the RDNA 2 generation, built to compete directly with NVIDIA's high-end mobile RTX 3000-series chips, with 2560 cores and a generous 12GB of GDDR6 memory across a 192-bit bus. That memory capacity in particular was notably ahead of most NVIDIA laptop GPUs at the same tier.
It delivers strong 1080p performance at maximum settings and handles 1440p well in most titles, making it a genuine high-end gaming chip for its time. Like other configurable mobile GPUs, its real-world performance depends on the power limit the laptop manufacturer sets, with 145W representing a typical higher-end configuration.
FSR 3.1 support, including Frame Generation, extends to this flagship mobile chip as well - AMD's software-based interpolation approach that doesn't require the dedicated hardware NVIDIA's DLSS 3 needs, useful for pushing 1440p frame rates higher. Resizable BAR support is also present, worth enabling in the laptop's BIOS where exposed.
