Title: Radeon RX 6850M XT performance debut: Lenovo Legion 7 16ARHA7 laptop review
Post by: Redaktion on September 15, 2022, 06:31:15
Aside from some bugs, the 2022 Legion 7 16 is arguably the best gaming laptop from Lenovo we've seen thus far — no Intel required. Meanwhile, the Raden RX 6850M XT is comparable to the Radeon RX 6800M for better or worse.

This is just a great box for almost silent surfing the Internet! But not more! Hahaha.

And now let's move on to things that are shameful for the AMD version for end of 2022:
The first is the lack of TB4.0 (USB40) with eGPU expander. Second - there is no Display Port 2.0 promised by Lisa for Zen3+. Where is port? For example, in the ThinkPad P16s Gen 1 DP2.0 is announced I will not describe here why it is fake from Intel. The main thing is that it is! =)

Well, for starters, the main shame for AMD in 2022 is that the top mobile processor is 1.5 (!) times weaker in sustained mode than the same processor from Intel, with a difference in consumption of only 12W in PL1 mode! AMD finally lost to Intel all the conquered territory.. ;) The defeat is devastating for AMD from Intel. The "Empire" dealt AMD a crushing blow. RIP AMD... we're plodding along at the end of progress again...

Well, it completes the picture, a poor screen of 2560x1600, instead of 4k@120Hz, and this is in 2022...

If you have pants are full of money, why not buy this "coffin" for relatively quiet surfing? ;) I bought a Dell G5 5587 (exactly for these purposes (and it justified itself here 100% and it weighs, by the way, 2.83 kg, so this is a Lenovo product - lightweight compared to it =)) - coolers practically do not turn on when load up to 30% on the cores. You sit like a silent tablet or smartphone, only the computing power is many times greater ... Even with soft decoding on YouTube 2560x1440 video, it lazily and occasionally turns on at minimum speed. And the Dell G5 5587 comes from 2018...

Well, again, once again, wearily, with despondency, I will write about the shameful tuning of ram in bios from Lenovo. The memory throughput is again much lower than the norm for DDR5 4800, which immediately reflects badly in PhotoWorxx (Photoshop and etc. productivity) test in AIDA64.

Another review only for gaming proposes.
 Instead of dozens of gaming benchmarks why not delete some of them that are certainly redundant for content creation benchmarks like Blender GPU Benchmark, Da Vinci Resolve benchmark?

"There is no Thunderbolt support unlike on most Intel-powered gaming laptops."

What about USB 4 that includes TB3 Protocol support as that's now part of the USB-IF's USB 4 Standard?

And from this very Article,  NikoB, this states:


"Left: USB-C 4.0 (40 Gbps + DisplayPort 1.4), USB-C 3.2 Gen. 2 (DisplayPort 1.4)"

And that 40Gbs is in fact TB3 Protocol based with that TB3 Protocol standard being given over by Intel to the USB-IF to be incorporated as part of the USB-IF's USB 4 standard so if fact this laptop will work with an external TB3 GPU Enclosure.

The price tag of $2600 USD simply destroys any "advantage" it might have over Nvidia laptops.

Especially given that last year's Asus Strix with 6800M was $1600 at launch, and currently goes for $1399.

If one of the owners confirms the real possibility of connecting an eGPU, there are no questions. But given that this is not a TB3/4 port, eGPU support is in question, although Lenovo claims that this is a USB40 port, they do not write about eGPU anywhere. Well, the question is also immediately - where is Display Port 2.0 ?! At least Zen3+, according to Lisa, supports it.

I draw the attention of all potential buyers that Lenovo lies in psref about supporting 8k@60Hz monitors on the HDMI port. Even a full-fledged HDMI 2.1 with a 48Gb/s transmitter will not output lossless 8k@60Hz even in poor 24-bit 4:4:4 mode. Support for 8k@60 is stated in HDMI 2.1 only with loss of signal quality through DSC compression.

The lossless 8k@60Hz, 24-bit in 4:4:4 mode requires a minimum of 48Gbps of pure data, while HDMI 2.1 can only do 42Gbps without overhead. Only Display Port 2.0 is currently the only fair transport link for 8k monitors in lossless mode. DP2.0 supports 8k@60Hz at 36bit as max mode. But even it is not suitable for monitors with a frame rate (and as usual fast response, although there are monitors that are fast in response at 60Hz) 120-165Hz. Wait for DP2.1 with pure data link around 160-200Gbps...and this link definitely can't be copper anymore. It's just dumb and stupid of developers to try to use copper cables. It's time to switch to optics, and the townsfolk learn to wash their hands and handle optical high-frequency connectors carefully. Actually, everything rests on the ram bandwidth - until it is brought to the minimum 100-120Gbytes/s even in single-channel mode, 8k monitors will lag even in 2D mode. About 8k in 3d games there is no question in the next 15-20 years of course. But for work, 27-40" (326-284 ppi) monitors with 8k resolution  are a treat for the eyes and the quality of text and business graphics is at the level of laser printers.

We can say unequivocally - AMD is no longer the leader in the processor market. They are again a company lagging behind in everything. Previously, they at least took performance sharply higher than that of Intel and increased battery autonomy with greater performance than Intel. But outstanding performance is now a thing of the past, with Intel taking the lead by just +12W in PL1. At the same time, I note that Intel has an old 10nm process technology. Imagine what it would be like if they also released Alder Lake at 7nm? AMD would have swallowed the dust...

And the prices of AMD processors are no longer so tasty. Interest for AMD is rapidly fading, which is what we are seeing from the collapse in the price of their shares. And by 2024-2025, when Intel finally solves its problems, launches factories and also partially uses TSMC's lines with the most advanced technical processes, how will AMD respond then - a company without factories, standing with outstretched hand in front of TSMC? This is a rhetorical question for investors. And almost rhetorical for those who choose their new platform in 2024+.

No one other than fanboys care if a company that had years of dominance in the market reclaims a spot that they always had an advantage over.
You're speaking as if amd had the lead for ages.
AMD wasn't even there in the same ballpark before zen 2.
AMD was never a real competitor, but intel caused a technological stagnation by resting on it's laurels not only allowing amd to to catch up, and even embarrassingly lost to a company that was many times smaller.
AMD didn't even have a meaningful market share in the laptop department.
But now it does.
But that's not the point.

The point is monopolistic and anti-tech, anti-progress and anti consumer attitude of intel actually made it lose in a department it could've never lost even in the worst made superhero movie...

What did they do from the time of sandybridge to skylake?

They sold the same meltdown infested s**t without making any meaningful changes and marketed them as the most advanced and secure chips.

All those marketing strategies and still paying off, because even tech idiots know about i5, i7 and i3, but ryzen is still an alien term.

They had their place in macs too.




It's not a great story after you do damage control after your own f**kups.
It's not even funny..


And amd not being competitive is not good for consumers... It's probably good for Ryan Shrout and Userbenchmark...but definitely bad for the tech community..

So I am with both hands for fair and powerful competition. But after all, AMD is, in fact, Intel's excuse from antimonopolists was and is. After all, there are no people who want to challenge Intel's leadership on the planet except for her. Huge China cannot even master the 14nm process technology on its own (just boasted that it can now make 14nm chips "unlimited", but lithographic machines are no better than 90nm).

Actually, there are simply no states and alliances on the planet, except for the Western one, which can oppose something. And the reason is precisely in the underdeveloped civil society, and hence the underdeveloped socio-economic environment, which is fertile ground for the emergence of a layer of talented scientists and engineers. Just think about the fact that China, despite having a population of 1.5 billion like India, has not had a single Nobel laureate in the last 30 years in the natural sciences. In India, the "middle class" as a base for the proliferation of human capital, according to international funds, does not exceed 70 million people! The only Nobel laureate in natural sciences born from China, lived in Hong Kong (a colony of England) and left there even before England handed it over to China.

There is nothing surprising that there are no competitors - there are no communities, societies, states, alliances that can oppose something to the West, but even in it, with the "drive" of human capital, everything is bad and only getting worse. TSMC, like Taiwan, also belong to the "Western" camp. The most advanced alliance on the planet. The Western alliance is losing its technological drive due to the loss of the quality of human capital, more and more diluted with less passionate and inquisitive people from underdeveloped countries with an increasingly slavish mentality. Once capitalism ended in the US and outright socialism began, things got bad for industrial competition as well. Capitalism at the level of large corporations has turned into imperialism (as a means of pressure on less developed states, without any regard for the need for competition in every sector), with less and less chance of success in the technological progress of civilization. Politics and the financial mafia have completely subjugated the real economy.
Of course, the population is fed with tales about AI and other nonsense for illiterate inhabitants, but it is obvious that this is unrealistic and, moreover, critically dangerous with such a mess on the planet and in people's heads.
Indifference flourishes more and more. The larger the population, the more people feel their loneliness if they try to go against the mainstream, like pioneers. Moloch of societies grinds inquisitive and inconvenient more and more effectively. Where in such a world can pioneers come from? Especially when even science has become just a business with an attempt to attract funding for frankly fake projects? A whole galaxy of "scientists" has grown up, whose goal is not science, the progress of mankind at the level of their mentality, but the skillful, smart-a** knocking out of grants and parasitizing all their lives on fools with money ...

There is even a logical theory of how mankind developed - thanks to which it developed. In every society, once small, then large tribes, there were rebels, the more sedentary the society became and more and more turned into a state (i.e. a stationary bandit with compulsion to extortions and obligations, without guarantees of social return), the stronger such society-states squeezed out people suffocating in their shackles. As long as these pioneer rebels had somewhere to physically flee on the planet, civilization developed. But after moving to America, there were no white spots left. The rebels have nowhere else to go to create a new young society with rapid fermentation and the development of advanced ideas. The whole world is mired in corruption, ever larger parasitic (rather than productive) sections of the population. This is the end. And it will inevitably cover this whole colossus of civilization, rushing by inertia right to the reinforced concrete wall...

I didn't pass off any righteous anger there.
And it wasn't some kind of 'speech'.
I was pointing out the facts. You can verify each of them too..
You were talking as if AMD was in some kind of dominant position.
AMD barely managed to get the lead with zen 2, then extended its lead with zen 3.
But that should've never happened.
Intel's fkups are the reason why it happened it the first place.
I was explaining this to some detail in what you called a 'speech'.
So making it out so that intel won some kind of battle while it can at most be called damage control, is just ridiculous.

And what kind of grand topic are you talking about anyway?
All those things you talked about doesn't change the fact that your seemingly harmless comment actually sounds just like those leaders who increase the price of 5 commodities by thrice and then after a few months reduce the price 2 of them by half and 3 of them by 1 and half and then pose in front of the camera as true philanthropists...

Anyway, that has nothing to do with any of this.
And I am not here to encourage your trolling.

The comment earlier om how amd is no longer 'the' leader was definitely an exaggeration.

AMD was NEVER 'THE' leader in the processor market.

It has held an underdog position throughout history. It has offered better products than the competition. But intel has always been a multiple times bigger company.

And this has always been true whether they had a fab or not.

 It's not like you don't post comments that are better. I've seen your fair share of good, to the point comments as well.
But this one wasn't like that.

As for your question, zen 4 marks the end of Jim Keller's contribution.

And intel's Royal cores are coming.

So amd is probably gonna go back to bulldozer days soon, unless another Jim Keller appeared.

K12 should be resurrected ideally and Keller brought back (don't see this happening though).


With apple silicon doing so much more than even they expected it to, we might see a revolution in ARM space. Then there's RISC-V.

And all the big players are betting on AI and ML. So we never know what would happen.

We might even see something so advanced by today's standards becoming obsolete in a week!
But that still doesn't change the fact.

AMD was never the leader in the processor market.

And with all the financial power AND the number of engineers in R&D, intel should be ashamed that it even managed to give amd any kind of lead after thoroughly tramping upon them after the rise of x64.

Stand still in bright array, ye Saints; here stand, Ye Angels armed; this day from battle rest: Faithful hath been your warfare, and of God Accepted, fearless in his righteous cause; And as ye have received, so have ye done, Invincibly: But of this cursed crew The punishment to other hand belongs; Vengeance is his, or whose he sole appoints: Number to this day's work is not ordained, Nor multitude; stand only, and behold God's indignation on these godless poured By me; not you, but me, they have despised, Yet envied; against me is all their rage, Because the Father, to whom in Heaven supreme Kingdom, and power, and glory appertains, Hath honoured me, according to his will. Therefore to me their doom he hath assigned; That they may have their wish, to try with me In battle which the stronger proves; they all, Or I alone against them; since by strength They measure all, of other excellence Not emulous, nor care who them excels; Nor other strife with them do I vouchsafe. So spake the Son, and into terrour changed His countenance too severe to be beheld, And full of wrath bent on his enemies. At once the Four spread out their starry wings With dreadful shade contiguous, and the orbs Of his fierce chariot rolled, as with the sound Of torrent floods, or of a numerous host. He on his impious foes right onward drove, Gloomy as night; under his burning wheels The stedfast empyrean shook throughout, All but the throne itself of God. Full soon Among them he arrived; in his right hand Grasping ten thousand thunders, which he sent Before him, such as in their souls infixed Plagues: They, astonished, all resistance lost, All courage; down their idle weapons dropt: O'er shields, and helms, and helmed heads he rode Of Thrones and mighty Seraphim prostrate, That wished the mountains now might be again Thrown on them, as a shelter from his ire. Nor less on either side tempestuous fell His arrows, from the fourfold-visaged Four Distinct with eyes, and from the living wheels Distinct alike with multitude of eyes; One Spirit in them ruled; and every eye Glared lightning, and shot forth pernicious fire Among the accursed, that withered all their strength, And of their wonted vigour left them drained, Exhausted, spiritless, afflicted, fallen. Yet half his strength he put not forth, but checked His thunder in mid volley; for he meant Not to destroy, but root them out of Heaven: The overthrown he raised, and as a herd Of goats or timorous flock together thronged Drove them before him thunder-struck, pursued With terrours, and with furies, to the bounds And crystal wall of Heaven; which, opening wide, Rolled inward, and a spacious gap disclosed Into the wasteful deep: The monstrous sight Struck them with horrour backward, but far worse Urged them behind: Headlong themselves they threw Down from the verge of Heaven; eternal wrath Burnt after them to the bottomless pit.

Post by: NikoB on September 18, 2022, 07:32:20
I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.

Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.

In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable Rights" of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."

But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. And so, we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.

We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.

It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment. This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning. And those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual. And there will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.

But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.

The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.

We cannot walk alone.

And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.

We cannot turn back.

There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?" We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality. We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. **We cannot be satisfied as long as the negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. We can never be satisfied as long as our children are stripped of their self-hood and robbed of their dignity by signs stating: "For Whites Only."** We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until "justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream."1

I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells. And some of you have come from areas where your quest -- quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.

Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.

And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

I have a dream today!

I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "interposition" and "nullification" -- one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

I have a dream today!

I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together."2

This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the South with.

With this faith, we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.

And this will be the day -- this will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning:

My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride,    From every mountainside, let freedom ring!

And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.

And so let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.

Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.

Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.

Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado.

Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California.

But not only that:

Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.

Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.

Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.

From every mountainside, let freedom ring.

And when this happens, and when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual:

Free at last! Free at last!

Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!3

Someone "Russell" is already quietly talking to himself, posing as me. It's fun in his ward. How is Napoleon doing?

I retract my statement, I am a bellend incapable of love or experiencing true happiness.

Russell is a benevolent impresario and I am a rube.

Thank you.

No hard feelings. I understand. I am also unworthy and will retreat back into the hills of Avalon from whence I came.

I will no longer intrude upon and reserve further commentary for future discussions involving my celibate lifestyle and refusal to procreate (thereby mitigating the risks of spawning my tainted seeds)

Still no TB4/USB4 support. I will wait to upgrade. Maybe in 2023...

This series officially has one USB40 port. If there are no problems with the eGPU, then this is a complete analogue of TB4.0.

Quote from: NikoB on September 16, 2022, 20:33:23A whole galaxy of "scientists" has grown up, whose goal is not science, the progress of mankind at the level of their mentality, but the skillful, smart-a** knocking out of grants and parasitizing all their lives on fools with money ...
And here is another confirmation in the form of another voice crying in the oasis of busines from "science": theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/sep/26/physics-particles-physicists

But this is only one stream in the flourishing world of pseudoscience..

I can only confirm that a Thinkpad T14s GEN3 with AMD 6650U and USB4.0 is working with an
eGPU over its USB4 port.

I believe in one God,
Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the only-begotten Son of God,
begotten of the Father
before all ages;

Light of Light,
true God of true God,
begotten, not created,
of one essence with the Father
through Whom all things were made.

Who for us men
and for our salvation
came down from heaven
and was incarnate of the Holy Spirit
and the Virgin Mary
and became man.

He was crucified for us
under Pontius Pilate,
and he suffered and was buried;

And he rose on the third day,
according to the Scriptures.

He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father;

And He will come again with glory
to judge the living and dead.
His kingdom will have no end.

And in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the Creator of life,
Who proceeds from the Father,
Who together with the Father and the Son
is worshiped and glorified,
who spoke through the prophets.

In one, holy, catholic,
and apostolic Church.

I confess one baptism
for the forgiveness of sins.

I look for the resurrection of the dead.
and the life of the age to come. Amen.
