The Anandtech Ivy Bridge Laptop Preview shows 45W Ivy Bridge only equalling 35W Llano despite all the higher TDP and non-IGP (but affecting the IGP's performance) advantages of the Intel platform.
Think of it this way; if a theoretical 45W Ivy Bridge laptop APU was designed with the graphics core (including its L3 access) removed and the Llano graphics core grafted in I would expect it to be at least 25% faster in games than the current 45W Ivy Bridge APUs.

We will have to wait and see, and it will depend on a number of factors including whether it is being used on battery power or mains and the ability of the laptop chassis and cooling system to let it turbo.
When it couldn't effectively turbo the igp results of 17W Sandy Bridge were very disappointing:
