Yeah... I remember filtering anything without 500 Nits brightness when I was shopping for my laptop. I mean putting 300 Nits screen on $1300+ laptops is just a scam, which is like 80% of all gaming laptops.

i just wish asus would bring back the removable battery option like back in the day because that's what I've been doing before in order for the battery to stay healthy and also to test really well the cpu and gpu's limit on how long it will maintain high fps for gaming for a couple of hours

I'm assuming that, since it's using the same chassis as the 7945HX model, that there's only the two down firing speakers, no tweeters in the hindge openings like on the Intel Scar, and 2021 AMD Scar?...

does it has the core parking button like the 7900x3d on desktop?

Its not about latencies but about size. In more than one way actually. The actual benefit is the storage size of the 3d cache. It can prefetch a lot more data. The reason why its 3d is because cache memory has been suffering from a scaling issue. While with new production processes the components inside a cpu get smaller and smaller cache got smaller at a lower and lower rate. TSMC has announced that the cache in their upcoming 3nm node wont be any smaller than the current 5nm node. So AMD has decided to 3d stack the cache in order to increase its capacity while retaining acceptable die sizes.

@Frozoken

11 ай бұрын

Ur not even disputing what he said, you're talking about how amd is using it to save die space he actually outlined the surprisingly very correct reason for the higher vcache being the main memory access latency for the cpu. Main memory has continually gotten tiny latency uplifts compared to cous continually bottleneckong then further and further forcing more and more cache to compensate. In the middle 2000's it came in the form of intel adding a whole new level of cache (l3) and since zen 3 and rocket lake it has come through massive l2 and l3 cache increases. So yeah you've just explained how it's implemented but it is being implementedef in the first place because as he said, memory latency is terrible. Amd especially is never going to increase costs doing 3dvcache just because it's not taking up as much die space lmao.

Two things. 1. Please don't say, "Single Core Clock Speeds" when talking about single core performance, because it makes it sound like you're going to compare how many Gigahertz each processor runs at in single core loads. When comparing different architecture CPUs, "clock speeds" aren't relevant, and they also weren't what you were actually talking about, which was confusing. Secondly, you buried the lead by not talking about gaming until the 6 minute mark. It is cool that the 3d v cache makes an incrementally small difference in non-gaming tasks, but by starting the review talking about 1-2% differences, it really makes the processor seem like nothing special and undermines all the buildup you just did talking about why the cache is better.

Still, AMD's best chip gets put in an outdated laptop design. This Scar 17 is last year's body. If you get an Intel version, you can get the redesign with a better and 16x10 display. Isn't that odd? It's like, if you want the best chip, you can't get it in the newest design, but you better believe you're still paying top dollar for the thing. And the old excuse that games all run at 16x9 and so 16x10 has black bars no longer applies. I can't remember the last game I played that doesn't run at a 16x10 resolution...

If I was getting a laptop with amd, I want a desktop cpu like a gaming laptop that has the ryzen 9 3950x desktop cpu in it such as the xmg gaming laptop. I only game in 4k and I don't do any transcoding at all for videos or compressing videos. For videos I only do uncompressed videos. I'm not really a fan of compressed videos. I prefer uncompressed audio and uncompressed video. I would get the Intel i9-11900k desktop cpu from the origin pc eon-17x gaming laptop with it's 4k display, 3080 ti 16gb vram version and removable battery with 4 nvme ssds since I need as much ssds as possible when I can get 8tb ssd for each ssd with 32tb ssds. I don't know if 32tb would be enough since I use alot of 4k uncompressed videos and I also rip my 4k discs in uncompressed iso format as well from my external 4k drive. I have not even mentioned my library of games from steam, gog and epic games as well as emulators snd android apps. I already rip my cds in uncompressed format and I have plastic bins full of 4k, blu ray and dvd movies and games too. When I record 4k videos from my sony xperia 1 iv android phone from it's 4k display, I record with uncompressed videos only and uncompressed raw pictures when taking pictures. Any kind of compression is my biggest pet peeve. When I use motion cam pro, a 10 second uncompressed 4k video is already 2gb. I'm still looking for an app to open my 4k uncompressed videos that I record in raw dng format. If there was an option to use real film by plugging in my phone from the usb c port I would. I actually like taking pictures with film like the kodak and fuji film cameras instead of using digital for photography and videography. The only thing that I like about digital is the hi res 4k. If there was 4k laser discs I would use it instead. I prefer my audio to be analog instead of digital but I only sacrifice with digital because most music and videos use digital plus cds are easier to store since I don't have the room and space to store analog vinyl records. I even still buy casette tapes. Digital is mostly artificial due to a.i. and computational photography but I'm more of a purist when it comes to audio and video recording. Trying to improve the camera every year for smartphones is not beneficial since most people use social media to post there videos and pictures and social media already compresses it and turns out to be mediocre. It's like compressing mp3 audio files even more and you can't get the data back that is already being thrown away when social media and streaming services already compress them until social media and streaming service support uncompressed formats with true lossless audio and true lossless video. It would cost more money but you are getting high quality and the results speak for themselves.

The 2019 msi gt76 titan and the alienware area 51m both use the Intel i9-9900k desktop cpu in a gaming laptop. The 2021 origin pc eon-17x even has an option for putting an Intel i9-11900k desktop cpu and the 3080 mobile gpu 16gb vram version on the gaming laptop with a 97 watt removable battery with 2 power bricks being 250 watts being a total 500 watts. I wish every laptop has a removable battery just like the older early 2000's laptops instead of just making the laptop too thin that not having a removable battery is a sacrifice when the battery will degrade over time. I wanted the 2021 origin pc eon-17x when linus tech tips made a video about the laptop having a 4k display while playing microsoft flight simulator and it has a similar form factor and size as the msi gt 77 titan. I have the 2022 razer blade 15 with an Intel i9 1200h mobile cpu, 4k 144 hz and 3080 ti 16gb vram version. I wish the battery was removable on my razer gaming laptop since the battery already stops holding a charge and it automatically shuts off when it's unplugged from an outlet and it will only work when the laptop is being plugged into an outlet and the battery is stuck at 99% and won't go to 100%. I constantly plugged the laptop when the battery is low and when the battery is at 100%, I would unplug the laptop. It's mostly likely that the heat killed the battery faster since my razer laptop gets very hot. I always leave the laptop plugged into an outlet to get better performance instead of battery power when playing with native 4k ray tracing enabled, dlss off, v sync off and motion blur off and all the graphics maxed out. I use as much vram as possible for every game that I play in 4k since I only play games in 4k. I wish there was an option for using noctua fans and noctua heat pipes on the gaming laptops since noctua has varieties of fan sizes for desktop pc's for better performance while lowering the temperatures at a comfortable temperature while remaining as silent as possible.
