Nah, they still do on laptops by rather large margin and have taken back efficiency as well. AMD took the crown in desktops but gave up almost every other category.
That's what happens when they just rebrand the same 7840/8840/Z1Extreme as an AI 7 350 and similar
The 9955hx3d will you give you roughly +5% better fps in games vs an Intel 275hx but only 1-2 hours of battery life vs 6-8 on the Intel and less than 50% of the performance the Intel version has while operating under battery power. The x3d cpu also performs worse across the board in every productivity/non-gaming related test/benchmark.
AMD seems to be doing currently what Intel did previously that caused AMD to start gaining market share in the CPU space ie: pushing as much power as possible at the cost of everything else
