I just read the whole statement (previously I also commented negatively because the question was about A370M and I just focused on the "up to 2X part" of the statement)
I'll try to paint a positive picture of this:
Since the statement is in plural, it probably refers to Arc A370M/A350M/Iris Xe Max A200M products that will be launched at the same time, hence the "up to 2X" part. So essentially the message could just be 2X for A370M and less than 2X for the rest. Also I saw some fps results in Notebookcheck regarding AMD 680M and the performance is probably around -10% of what AMD's release performance slides are suggesting. Also 1280P IGP should be around 10% faster on average than Vega 8 (5900HS). If you really (I mean really) stretch it, you could end with A370M performance being 35% faster vs 680M 6800U 2.2GHz iteration. So regarding A380 you are back at -5-10% vs 1650 Super. So essentially we're back at the original performance assumptions, so I guess we just have to wait for some valid comparisons then.
Dont stop here, little more bullsh1s and A370 will be faster than 3090ti+6900XTX combined

WOW! Negativity much everyone?

Here's what stood out to me in the article: 2x Mobile IGP performance at only 28w.

Perhaps I'm a little slow, but that seems like a win. Let the flaming commence..



read this. I hope you enjoy only playing the top 100 apps and games. rest is still on shaky ground yet they feel its ok to release, cause the masses who play the masses games are all that matter.

So Intels' discrete GPU for laptops should be on par with Rembrandt's iGPU then, which smashes Iris Xe. Oh dear.

Let's wait to pass final judgement until after the press has had a chance to actually review the release models. Prototypes and engineering samples are not always a reflection of the final products.

I agree with that, but according to that article it was an actual Intel employee who stated the 100 thing... so I mean :p
