With the Linux kernel and Mesa upgrades sent down to new Fedora releases, the Radeon graphics improvements aren't too notable when switching to a new Fedora release with close versions to what is already shipped as updates on the prior release.
There does appear to be a few performance regressions introduced post Linux 6.14 and Mesa 25.0 that haven't recovered for the Radeon 8060S in select benchmarks.
For many of the demanding computational benchmarks, there wasn't any big surprises out of Fedora 43. With Fedora 42 having been the first major Linux distribution using GCC 15 by default, there isn't any major compiler version bump going from Fedora 42 to Fedora 43.
