The Unvanquished first person shooter game was one of the games where the amd-pstate schedutil and amd-pstate ondemand configurations led to lower power consumption than acpi-cpufreq and in turn slightly better power efficiency for this Ryzen 5 5500U laptop.

For real-world, multi-threaded workloads like Hugin and RawTherapee there wasn't much change to report in the different configurations besides the much slower powersave as expected.
