AMD "Renoir" APU 3DMark 11 Performance Figures Allegedly Surface

So gaming performance is the same as before, if everything else being equal.
Well yes and no. In terms of GPU IPC, not much should change. The shrink to 7nm however, will allow them to increase clock speeds, while maintaining the same power envelope.
Retail 3400G has GPU clock at 1400MHz, this one was tested at 1500MHz. And these chips are at least 3 months away for mobile parts and 6+ months for desktop. So rather early silicon.
 
Yes, it still using GCN. Only the display engine is updated to match Navi. So gaming performance is the same as before, if everything else being equal.

If I remember correctly the V20 core has the same degenerated display processing hardware as Navi but AMD disabled it. So one could say that Navi is just gimped Vega. lol

In that sense if AMD took a Vega20 block and turned on that execution hardware, it would be like Navi with the computational grunt of Vega. It would be... GCNavi

B-)
