Vega 7 @1600Mhz

You are unlikely to see dedicated graphics paired with a U-series processor in most cases. (There are exceptions, but you'll see the dedicated graphics card specified in those cases.)

The graphics appear to come from the processor, either a Ryzen 4500u (6 gpu cores @1500Mhz) or Ryzen 4700u (7 gpu cores @1600Mhz).

See benchmarks here: https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=Ryzen+7+4700U...

basically: not great

I don't want to advertise, so I'll just say - you can go to a big computer/hardware seller website and search for laptops with nvidia graphics cards. You can get a laptop with a GTX 1650 for $700, which has 3x the performance.

And then we have to deal with nvidia's proprietary drivers, HDMI being electrically connected to the gpu, graphics switching, etc.

AMD's APU graphics offer a good enough solution while removing the headaches many of us are trying to avoid.

Not if you want 3d graphics it's not.
