most N100/150 mini pc only consume 6-8w on idle (check reviews on YouTube), I wont say it is “power hungry”

During idle (or very low load) yes (5-10W), but not under load (watching video, web browsing, etc).

I have a N150 mini PC running F42 (KDE), it runs basically perfectly. N150 is a pretty new CPU so you will need a recent kernel, and F42 already using 6.14, so it is fine (just don’t run Debian on it).

However the only thing that worries me is the battery of that tablet. The N150 use around 10-20W under load, and with the 25WHr battery, it probably going to latest around 1 to 2 hours only.

Interesting, maybe this issue only happens for RDNA3?

I’m also using F41 with same kernel but with KDE. Display is 2560x1440 @ 120Hz. On 3D_FULLSCREEN, my pp_dpm_mclk is on 772Mhz most of the time with some occasional 456Mhz, but never drop to 96Mhz. It will only drop to 96Mhz if I change to BOOUP_DEFAULT (or POWER_SAVING).

You can use nvtop or lm_sensors to read the GPU power (PPT)

I hope AMD can take a significant market share from NVIDIA while NVIDIA is too busy counting money from the AI bubble

Not specified for this research but… if you rely on LLM to write code that is security-sensitive, I don’t expect you to write secured code without LLM anyway
