I seriously remember when AMD had GPU side locked down for laptop dedicated GPU options as they were the only really good option, until 10 series though I wouldn't have said there was a thing as a laptop that could game, because the Wattage requirements of the Chips for their die size wasn't at an acceptable level. Nice to see comp. in the space again and perhaps a greater benefit down the road with innovations.

WARNING: Tech Review Channels rushed to publish after AMD lifted the media embargo and failed to notice that ASUS shipped these laptops with BAD RAM knowingly or unknowingly. Jarrod's Tech, a dedicated gaming laptop channel, has highlighted in the comments that changing stock RAM in the Strix results in a 20% performance improvement, which is a lot when it comes to GPU vs GPU comparisons. I personally think AMD is to blame for not screening which laptop was sent for early reviews. But notice how all early reviews highlight performance anomalies.

to be fair bad RAM affects Nvidia laptops as well, JarrodTech got from 10 to 12% fps gain by simply swapping stock ram to ram with better timings on Legion 5 pro with RTX 3070.

AMD says the 6800 is targetting 1440p - we know 1080 gaming has some weird things like RAM timings causing a 10% difference in FPS - why not test this laptop in 1440p, AMD's stated use case?

@racerex340

I'm assuming they did test and saw some of the weirdness that others saw and elected not to publish. There is suspicion that Asus might have done something weird with SmartShift that causes the 6800M to show less 1440p performance than expected. I noticed that he said that the tests were not in turbo mode, so that would explain the lower than expected power consumption on the GPU, which is really what leads me to call bullshit. Something was up with the peak performance in Turbo mode, so rather than publish those results, they chose performance mode, and it feels like they did in order for the system to have an excuse as to why it didn't perform as it should have. Come on guys, you should have tested this with the laptop in Turbo mode, and 1440p, especially since AMD said these should be 1440p gaming focused, so much so that AMD advantage requires over 144Hz panels.

I know you can't upgrade a laptop cpu or gpu wise but given GPU pricing at the moment and the rolling out of upscaling techonolgies I'd wager something at this performance level would do you for a good number of years especially at 1080p. Honestly at the price it's definitely an interesting proposition.

Great review! I love your videos, you have a good manner of presenting details and cool voice, very calm and clear, also the content is precise and accurate. Would you be so kind and share your thoughts on how this laptop with AMD RX 6800M GPU is doing with tasks like 4k editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, please? Can it compete with RTX or M1 chips? Do you have a dedicated video on that?

Adding performance decrease, plug-in to battery, in the form of percentage imo is really helpful. For example, 6800M performance decrease when playing CSGO on battery is lesser than 3080, though 3080 still leads it just means that 6800M is more efficient.

Hope we can see more of these mobile GPU's. Good review 👍

You need to check the secondary timings on the memory on these laptops. Both Jarrod's Tech and Hardware Unboxed found that their 6800M samples had atrocious timings. HUB swapped the kit to a more reasonable one and their conclusion differs quite a bit from yours. At 1080p it was all back-and-forth between the 6800M and the 3080. Obviously at 1440p on an external monitor the 3080 won, but it was only by a 5% margin IIRC.

Finally a good all-AMD gaming laptop. If I start saving now, I'll be able to get one with a Ryzen 7000 series/Radeon RX 8000 series.

this vid makes me so proud of my legion 5 pro, its the cheapest (in my country) out of all the other models tested but it does really well, even performs better than more expensive models in some games :D

Its like asus purely exists for publications my zeph g15 got stuck in whispermode 2.0 after an nvidia update...and i never got more than 60-90 fps in every single game 40fps in others bc it was locked on in control panel and nv experience. I returned it and wasnt willing to get a replacement bc i needed it for work...Eventually the lenovo launched and its priced like 200$ more than the zeph...smh. So...like you said about amd systems theyre impossible to find so i got the HP omen amoled 4k for 1300 open box...i mean 600$ price difference between the omen and the legion that i cant seem to justify at the moment. From zeph to legion its a choice between battery life portability and speakers....and full keyboard 16:10 dope af panel, and 140w 3070 in the legion.

Any chance we can get the 1440p graphs for performance of these laptops? Some of these laptops have 1440p screens, and I want to see if the difference in power supplied to the GPU is more apparent in higher resolutions.

On your gaming on battery section you show an fps comparison between a 3080 and the 6800M at 11:22. What is left out of this analysis is how long can each of these two systems run at those fps levels before the battery level forces the laptop to throttle itself. For example how long can you run Dirt 5 at 65fps on the 6800M system before the laptop runs out of juice compared to how long the 3080 running at its highest fps (about 46fps) runs out of juice?

Just curious, have you replace Ram memory sticks as recommended by Jarrod's channel? you can actually boost FPS of Strix G15 amd edition with significant rate. It actually performed much better than RTX 3080 in some cases (cooling pad + external monitor).

Well , FSR is around the corner , June 22nd , depenting on the Quality hit for the Performance Boost of 50 -300 % for all Radeon GPUs / APU from Polaris onwards this could be a real Game changer . Especially in APU and mobile / Laptops we will see and noticeable push in FPS , an APU in FHD that current has 25-40 FPS will get , depending on the Quality Setting , from 35 to 80-90 FPS . Vega is supported , Polaris too = the older cards get a push as well , even older NVidea cards ( i f NVidea invest Time and money to implement FSR in their Drivers , i am not that convident there .. ) If the Image Quality is OK ( has too be seen ) than you can set an FPS Limit and your APU/ Card stays cool and uses way less energy = higher Battery Lifetime.

Its' already been noted that Asus messed up here by using low RAM timings (probably as a cost saving measure seeing how most OEM's don't bother with putting in higher quality fast RAM with low timings), and also because of chip shortages). This, and lack of a MUX switch to shut off the iGP during gaming (and delegate this workload entirely to the dGPU) is lowering the 6800 performance by about 30-35% in total (so the GPU is actually much more powerful than this particular laptop design is indicating).

2:40 Nothing to worry about? Except that there will be no non-xt 6700 for desktop now.

Please let me know if there is a desktop replacement AMD laptop out there that you can still purchase.

Update: Purchased Advantage Edition Asus Strix G15 with RX6800M for 154999INR, It came with WQHD 165Hz, 1TB Samsung SSD and Micron 1Rx8 RAM seems even better and performance is goooood

How much fps on Cod warzone low settings (1080)?

Its addictive to watch reviews of things you cant even afford. Still have this Pentium Ice Age Edition PC.

Those AMD powered laptops look promising. Now I know what to look for when I can find these. (:

I watch ur video only for background setup lol

Watched Jarrod's video and his Strix sample might've been held back by Freesync via iGPU and just started the video so this might get answered: Any word on gaming laptops that bypass Enduro? (AMD's Optimus) (is it still called that?). I would love to see MUX switches in both Radeon and Geforce laptops 💖

Optimus and optimus-like technologies were a scam from the day 1. It's stupid that they've become an industry standard.

Hey HWC, a small piece of feedback I'd like to give is instead of using arrows to indicate which product you're referring to, I think making the bars glow instead would be a lot cleaner, in my opinion. Thanks for the review!

i m more excited if these powerful laptops could work well on bsd systems....

Maybe I missed this, but when are these laptop hitting the store shelfs ? The full specs of the laptop weren't mentined. Whats the panel? QHD, FHD, 120 or 165hz etc. But a nice video! :)

Hi there What is the best Laptop with Desktop processor in it preferably AMD With a RTX 3080 Or 3090 And 128GB Ram? For Unreal Engine 5?

I want more 14" options!

So is it game optimization or GPU efficiency that is more important?

Awwww time to wait again

i was thinking the same thing !! damn!

Jarrod Tech's video noted that the ROG Strix 15 comes with the same memory as the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro. If you didn't know, the stock memory in the Legion 5 comes with horrendous timings and it's possible to boost performance by 10% or more in some games by simply swapping out the memory kit. Basically, this might not be all the 6800m has to offer.

You just showed how good Lenovo Legion 5 pro is!

yeah i just wish it were 150-200$ cheaper still its a great build/product. I could see a type-c expansion dock getting hot though it was why i had to pass up on the previous legions for an omen. I was also considering an external nvme crucial drive so idk how that would be either. If i put it on a stand i can ofcourse have some offset. Plus when its "work time" i doubt the system will be pushing out as hot or as badly only trying to cool the cpu purely vs both the cpu and gpu. Its by far the best/nicest 3070 non FHD panel option RN with emphasis of an AMD cpu.

And also, you have to understand that some game developers optimize for Nvidia and Intel chips, and somewhat forget about AMD builds.

Hello I really confused by whether to buy this or a legion 7 slim 3060 5800?

i wanna get that zephyrus duo asap.....

A worrying amount of these has non-working, currently unfixable gpu issues and no one is talking about it, i had to return mine due to those

What I would like to see is how intel uses their iris xe and xe max graphics as a powerful integrated graphics Amd should do it with their RX6600M well not like integrated but it would give solid performance to those 1000$ to 1200$ Ultrabooks

You made the same exact mistake Linus did, which was to force the laptop into performance mode to test the gaming-on-battery claim. That's not what people do. They unplug and let the laptop automatically go into a low power mode. Those are the conditions you're supposed to test under, because those are the conditions that people will actually be in while gaming on battery.

Please include the memory timings that holds back the 6800m I am testing the laptop and it's not the full picture. The power sucking like the author say's is true, because of the RAM.

This is what i was waiting for, gaming laptops are truly shining in this inflated GPU market, kudos to OEM's for maintaining price and stock...

as well as updating cooling systems for each cpu generational upgrade while trying to deliver 140w to ampere...the 3070 with 11th gen and zen3 on laptops are already proven to beat 200w 2080 rtx cards paired with 4.4ghz cpus 2700x-3700x or non k intel cpus pre 11th gen. The best added benefit is being able to sell these laptops 1-2 years from now vs a desktop that isnt zen3 or intel 11th gen...which are plummeting daily. ESP since big navi and ampere are already proven to yield FPS in modern games that utilize hardware or future engines with zen3 and 11th gen cpus over past generations. By the time usb4 launches and ddr5....amd will have made the laptop market and manufacturing process so competitive and about TDP performance. The buyer will have access to so many options and form factors.

Don’t tell me the gpu is placed on the left part of the chassis where you rest your palm…

If I could get a Legion 5 Pro with all AMD, and at a lower price point, I would buy it in a heartbeat. Except, even though Legion was announced as one of the partners with AMD, when can we expect to actually get our hands on one? I'm still not able to get one of the Nvidia spec'd 2021 Legion 5 models. So what, I have to wait 6 months for a model to show up, and then into next year before I'll actually be able to buy one? And then I'll be looking at the next gen Nvidia stuff instead. If this translates into a bunch of models being available very soon then I'd totally be in the market for it. But if it takes several months for AMD and their partners to get their stuff together, I'll probably be rocking a 30 series RTX system.

Damn this laptop seems like a solid deal. I may consider it giving it's available and the price doesn't go up.

Good stuff

I have the scar 3070 with the 1440p panel, this laptop almost... almost makes me wish I waited. but honestly, I am really loving this laptop... tho maybe, depending on how good the power management and cooling is on the new laptop for long sessions of heavy cpu usage... maybe I will downgrade to this one. While the Legion with the same basic setup as my current laptop, didn't make me "regret" getting this scar, this AMD version, might make me wonder

If they manage to make these changes then why would you want anything else. 1. 2 Replaceable ram slots 2. 2 nvme drive 3. 1 Data drive Make this a standard in higher end labtops already.

It's all going to be about how much these gaming laptop are going to be priced at

exactly most of us in the know are smart enough to wait for retailers to be on the back end of their stock before they have to re-stock...theyll go on sale. So if the sticker is already at a high price point and were trying to gauge a 100-200$ off price point....a high entry can be damning. 2-300$ BETWEEN competitors to me....= buying the cheaper option with similar/exact specs....but a lesser monitor if i can buy a proper monitor for work/play ill prioritize one over the other for the included laptop panel in a CHEAPER than premium option...then compensate the difference with a dedicated monitor. FHD for gaming and a nice color accurate qhd or amoled 4k for the laptop....or a fast refresh FHD on the laptop and an ideal COLOR 4k monitor for "WORK"...just depends on the ratio of work needed to be done on teh laptop or away from a dedicated monitor. But wed be foolish to not act like there arent 2-400$ price gaps among 3070 laptops as well as the various wattages offered. I mean there are some VA 21:9 monitors for 400$....Makes people consider the omen with the 3070 or the 6800M options if they truly will be 1600$ or less. If they can buy that for 2000-2200$ tax. Its still less than most 3080 laptops and theyd be bypassing optimus with an external monitor...while being able to use adaptive sync which is a large factor for ideal laptop gaming for me...and typically not offered on the included panels.

Bought this installed better ram now waiting on my Samsung 980 that's on sale soooo add 200 dollars to the price and it's still great

What will be interesting to see since we know Nvidia can use dlss, is how amd's upcoming solution might bridge the gap. It did look like you might not have used dlss but all those numbers are crazy high anyway, lol

These amd gpu looks very exciting but for someone like me who want to go into deeplearning l/AI domain, I would always prefer nvidia over amd as deeplearning models need cuda to run on(tensorflow) and those cuda are used in nvidia gpu only(as far i know). You could use amd gpu but it need a lot of tickering. So cuda in nvidia is similar to thunderbolt in Intel

did you test actual powerconsumption of every laptop? i guess not.

Can you test the loudness?
