Have no idea what this guys are going on about. I'm running a 7950x3d, with 96GB DDR5 6000, on an Asus x670e motherboard and have no…

That's a Snapdragon based laptop in your link. You may have compatibility issues with software and hardware because it's ARM on Windows.…

I have laptops with an Intel 258v and one with an AMD 350. You can notice the difference in speed between them when side by side. The Intel…
19/06/2025 - 23:22
You forgot to add that Snapdragon also consumes a lot of power at full load still throttles.…

Well at least for Windows/Linux you have a choice between 3 different CPU companies (AMD, Intel or Qualcomm) AMD for the fastest x86 CPU,…

Snapdragon fan above. Notice that they get easily offended when you state that there are still issues with the product and start negging…
16/06/2025 - 09:24
Unfortunately the.emulation also still needs a lot of work despite what some Snapdragon fans may tell you. I have applications not work,…

It depends on the laptop reviewed. The AI 350 in most reviews that have come out is running at a lower TDP than the 8845H. The trade off is…
14/04/2025 - 08:24
The only issue is that the Intel Lunar Lake laptops lack Hyper Threading so perform worse than these AMD CPUs. You really notice the…

I guess you haven't experienced parts of Mexico and the Caribbean during Spring Break!
04/04/2025 - 18:11
Lol! Empires come and go. The global economic landscape will just change and Australia will have to form another pact with those that don't…
04/04/2025 - 17:24
It's hard enough with the fastest Snapdragon trying to emulate x86 game support already with very average frame rates when you can actually…
03/04/2025 - 05:13
The Intel Ultra 7 265 would be the bottleneck. Put an AMD Ryzen 9800X3D in there and it would be a viable product. Otherwise it's a waste…

288v overpriced for what it is. If you really wanted to go the Intel route, rather save money and get a 256v or 268v. Rather get a Ryzen…
20/03/2025 - 22:04
That was a big price error and they would have had to honour those that were able to make a purchase. That price would have been way below…
01/03/2025 - 07:28
There are probaly downvotes because this person is spreading incorrect information.Based on their past posts they haven't put up any deals…

You can dynamically allocate the RAM to the iGPU with the latest AMD APUs. This can be done with the latest Radeon drivers. On a 32gb…

It's still a rumour and nothing was mentioned at CES. The rumour is that Nvidia is working with MediaTek on a desktop chip, but nothing is…

Unfortunately Snapdragon X GPUs are very average in addition to software compatability
20/01/2025 - 21:55
If you compare the Intel CPU in this deal vs AMD's previous generation Ryzen 5 8645HS, the Intel 226v is about 17% slower in Passmark.…

Yes the 155H can be very power hungry with a MAX TDP of up to 64w. If the cooling can't keep up it can create issues. Hence probably why…
06/12/2024 - 12:37
I have compared both laptops side by side in gaming and I have no idea what the previous post is talking about. The AMD 780m had far less…
06/12/2024 - 12:33
Depends on the game, because you also need to take into consideration that Radeon has better driver support than Intel at the moment.
29/11/2024 - 11:00
I have tested an Ultra CPU 258v and an 8845HS side by side, and you can see where the Ultra lags behind in certain tasks because it doesn't…
29/11/2024 - 10:59
The 228v is about 30% slower than the 8845hs in multi threaded performance according to Passmark.…
29/11/2024 - 10:05
Similar CPU performance, but the Intel 155h has a worse GPU performance and slower NPU for AI. It also needs to reach a higher TDP to…
23/11/2024 - 19:13
It's a full metal chassis. Compared to some of the school laptops that have been suggested for my kids it is much better build quality than…
23/11/2024 - 11:23
That is a Qualcomm based unit. If you are running bespoke Windows applications you are going to have compatability issues. Also AI is only…
23/11/2024 - 10:53
Sorry but you are incorrect. I have this unit and the battery life numbers are quite accurate for productivity.…

Unfortunately the latest Intel chips have better efficiency at the expense of performance. They Ultra 7 258v is about 20% slower than this…
