GravityMark benchmark with settings of Resolution: 1920 x 1080, Renderer: Vulkan. Ryzen 7 8700G - 2400MHz FCLK was the fastest.

Right off the bat we see the Ryzen 7 8700G's RDNA3 integrated graphics are a huge uplift over the basic RDNA2 integrated graphics found with the Ryzen 7000 series as well as being a big uplift over the prior generation Ryzen 5600G/5700G processors with their GFX9/Vega graphics.

The only downside to the RDNA3 integrated graphics was a significant tick up in CPU power consumption compared to the prior generation parts or the RDNA2 integrated graphics of the Ryzen 7 7700(X). Still though on a performance-per-Watt basis the 8700G was far better off than the Ryzen 7 7700(X).

With the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Linux benchmark the Ryzen 7 8700G was at 3x the performance of the cut-down RDNA2 integrated graphics of the Ryzen 7 7700 series and still nearly doubling of the Vega Ryzen 5000G performance. Still higher power consumption than the Ryzen 5000G series but still somewhat to be expected with the much more capable iGPU.

Unigine Superposition benchmark with settings of Resolution: 1920 x 1080, Mode: Fullscreen, Quality: Low, Renderer: OpenGL. Ryzen 7 8700G was the fastest.

The Unigine Superposition benchmark at 1080p could even run above a 60 FPS average with the Radeon RX 780M integrated graphics of the Ryzen 7 8700G.
