What's Inside?
Intel Core i7 13700H
- The 'Core i's are no longer made - but are still strong performers. Generates more heat than the new Intel Core Ultras.
- The '7' CPU is the gold standard for performance and multitasking, offering great speed at a reasonable price.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
- A card with an identity crisis, the 4070 is only ~12% more powerful than the 4060, and is completely overshadowed by the 4080.
- The 4000 series is the previous generation from NVIDIA, and still stands proudly alongside the newer 5000s with less than a 10% performance difference between like tiers. Not a bad choice.
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.
15.6" IPS, (Full HD / FHD)
- 15" and 16" are the standard screen sizes, balancing portability and screen real estate.
- IPS (In-Plane Switching) screens offer great viewing angles and color accuracy — and aren't too expensive.
