AMD is preparing technology to accelerate games?  The company will soon announce Smart Access Storage

Nothing has been announced about the technology yet, but there is an assumption that this is an implementation of the Microsoft DirectStorage API. Recall that this is an API that allows the video card to load data directly from the SSD, bypassing the processor, which should allow a significant increase in performance on modern PCs with fast drives. The technology was originally created for the Xbox Series, but Microsoft recently announced that PC games can also support it. Probably AMD will just give this technology its name and finally bring it to market.

As for the laptop, most likely it is based on the Ryzen 9 6900HX and has a Radeon RX 6800M graphics card.
