What's Inside?
AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX
- AMD's Ryzen processors are slightly better performers than equivalent Intel processors, and usually at a lower price.
- The '9' CPU is a true powerhouse, sometimes considered overkill, but it gets the job done fast and without fuss. It's built for demanding tasks like live-streaming, video editing, and AI model training.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080
- The 3000 series is two generations old, and generally only found on older under-performing laptops. Not bad cards, but due to how the laptop market works you can get the latest generation for around the same price - with better longevity and up to 40% better performance.
32 GB of RAM
- 32 GB is heading to become the new standard, but isn't as widely available as you'd think. It's ideal for power users, video editing, multitasking (like running VMs), and moderate AI training.
1 TB SSD
- 1 TB is the recommended minimum for most users, providing a very usable amount of room for games and files.
- The modern SSD is around 20-40x faster than conventional hard drives, and far more physically resilient.
17.3" IPS, (2.5K / QHD)
- 17" and 18" screens offer the best visibility for gaming or productivity but are somewhat bulky.
- IPS (In-Plane Switching) screens offer great viewing angles and color accuracy — and aren't too expensive.
