Can u give info on noise levels in idle, medium, high loads? Im looking for a high end workstation for my pro audio studio and i definitely dont want a jet engine for one. Noise levels matter the most to me. Thanks in advance
I don't need to see more to ask the question WHY the Ryzen is not in more laptops, especially when it is so much cheaper? I cannot understand that. Is AMD so clumsy in it's cooperation with manufacturers? Is there some kind or oligopoly?
Gizmo wich is the best memory ram that i can buy to upgrade my Rog Strix Scar 16 laptop (for 32gb to 64)? its 5600mhz? there are specific rams for laptops?
Which laptop CPU is more expensive?
Great review! Thank you! IMHO i9-13980HX is the better choice.
Given the Zephyrus has second screen which also needs to be driven at least partially by software/hardware components, I really think Asus should have revived S17, maybe in 2 or 3 sizes like 14-16-18 inches to be on equal footing with the now popular dimensions for laptops, that would drop the extraneous load on the components for that extra screen, possibly boosting efficiency of power distribution and thus overall performance. Similarly, if either used RGB lights software-driven solutions, just dropping those and using simpler mobo driven options would net extra percentage points for those wanting to eke out all the performance out of those chips… Pity neither consumers nor Asus product managers understand that.
amd yes
7945hx is the no1 mobile cpu for 2023
Thank you for the comparison, I was looking for something like this to make my decision for the next laptop. Looking forward to the battery comparison, as other reviews suggested the Ryzen platform has significantly worse battery life compared to the previous gen. Some reviews even show shorter battery life than a corresponding Intel machine. This would mean that, even if the CPU is very good, the platform in itself has issues. Which would be a real shame..
Geekbench 6 no longer has a real multi core score. If you notice in Geekbench 5 is was basically the single core score times the number of cores. Now it is limited in scope.
Also you can get that AMD CPU in a $1500 USD laptop. The Zephyrus DUO is not where I want those parts.
Hey I have an budget of $1,500. Is there a laptop you recommend
people dont know intel crushes amd you know why? because intel is using a higher nm than amd which means intel has more room for improvement
I am not interested in maximum performance but in relative speeds under GPU load for suitable fan modes at 43, 40 or 37dB noise.
I want the 4070 Duo! Anyone know release date and price in usa?
Such competitive chips, can't go wrong with either of them.
Awesome comparison. For a laptop I prefer the low temperature of Intel. I'll sacrifice battery/power for temps and lower fan speeds.
Cpu can run over 90 it's no problem as long as power draw and laptop chassis temp. Is under control it's good to go . Pricing or features such as I/o will be a deciding factor.
10:39 Intel Qsv tested on last year seems little blocky than Nvidia Nvenc.
Whats the overlay ur using for gpu power draw fps etc?
My amd never boosts higher than the intel. Weird how urs says above 5000mhz all time cant be true. Check clock speeds while gaming for each core next time pls
i wonder what this guy do with this amount of laptop in home.
And i'm here just wanting one lol.
Good video bro.
my scar 16 with 4080 got 18 516 from timespy 😀
Great review thx I'm becasue I do alot of 3d modeling animatiosn and unreal 5 game dev I'm going with the Ryzen Duo 16 I just love this laptop and its' features.
Two years later I will buy one without selling my one leg and arm
whats the best 18" laptop?
For msi-afterburner enable frametime graph, it visualizes frame smoothness a lot better than 1% low number.
