Maybe it's controversial, but I don't think comparing 5nm mobile hardware from 2021 is a fair fight against 12nm desktop hardware from 2018.

And still, performance-wise, the 2070 still wins out by a ~33% margin: https://browser.geekbench.com/opencl-benchmarks

For this comparison the generation of chip doesn’t really matter because the llm decode (which is the costly step) barely uses any of the perf and just needs the model weights to fit in memory

I found it interesting that the Apple M3 scored nearly identical to the Radeon 780M. I know the memory bandwidth is slower but you can add 2 32gb sodimms to the AMD APU for short money.
