Nope, from the Tom's Hardware source:

ComputerBase's testing was done on an all-AMD test rig, featuring a Ryzen 7 5800X (non-3D) and a Radeon RX 6700 XT.

It's still relevant that this was not running on a Nvidia GPU, IMO, but not about handheld PCs.

So you have to going to another article to get the full story. gg notebookcheck.net.

Also can you link the Tom’s Hardware article.

It's linked as the source of the article in this link. I would have preferred OP link to it directly, assuming the actual source being in German was a dealbreaker, but it's still linked alongside the TH at the bottom of this one.

I am not sure why you're so adamant about a quote in the article that doesn't say this is about handhelds and getting defensive about a source that is in fact linked in the same article.

For the record, also plainly stated in both articles, the differences in performance are fairly small in all runs, exempting one or two outliers, and seemingly the Windows 1% lows were higher. Despite the Linux fans' overreporting these results, "Proton run good" is not an unexpected result.
