The performance profile with the MSI Prestige 14 did allow for faster render times in Blender than the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 but the AMD Zen 5 laptops were having better performance-per-Watt than the MSI laptop in its performance mode.
With the V-RAY renderer, the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 was still faster than the Panther Lake laptop tested in its performance profile on Linux.
With the OSPRay Studio software from Intel, the AMD Zen 5 laptops are much faster thanks to AVX-512.
The performance lead now for Panther Lake in the performance mode was quite impressive for C-Ray.
