5.000 € für einen Laptop mit einem Gewicht von 3.134 kg und einem Netzteil von fast 1 kg machen uns wahnsinnig.
5.000 Euro für einen Laptop ohne Ziffernblock sind Betrug.
5.000 € für Intel Core i9-14900HX bei 10 nm++++++
5.000 Euro für einen Prozessor, der so viel aufheizt und verbraucht, dass er nur 3 Stunden durchhält und man dazu verdammt ist, ein 1-kg-Ladegerät zu verwenden, erscheint mir masochistisch.
5.000 € für die NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090-Laptop-GPU sind das einzig Nützliche, aber ich denke, es gibt auch andere Laptops mit der RTX 4090, deren Preis 3.000 € beträgt, also ist es ein weiterer Betrug.
5.000 € für ein Intel HM770 (Raptor Lake-S PCH) Motherboard oder kostenlos.
5.000 € für die gleiche RAM-Geschwindigkeit wie das Modell 2023, NEIN.
ABSOLUT NEIN und umso mehr, da immer mehr Ultrabooks mit einem Gewicht von weniger als 1 kg mit Grafikkarten auf den Markt kommen, mit denen man AAA-Spiele für nur 1.500 € spielen kann, und nicht dieses für fast 5.000 €

Quote from: paviko on Today at 18:02:24Too little, too late. Apple is already on 2nd gen TSMC 3 with M4. This one is on 4 years old tech (TSMC 4 is like TSMC 5). Slower single threaded, multi threading 12 HP core comparable to 4HP + 4LP in Apple SoC. Price higher than M3 Air at the level of more powerfull M3 Pro.
If you don't want Apple, there are a lot great cheap Amd/Intel laptops for half the price - with excellent battery life >12h. Just check notebookcheck reviews.

Erm, so I honestly don't get the point of using 4 year old node fab tech. Yes, and? Nobody is currently using TSMC 3nm, not even your AMD/intel laptops. Apple has always been ahead of ever else here. And what's wrong with using an older node? You realize using the latest and greatest means the products that are using it are going to be expensive.

M4 is barely any improvement at all, btw. It gets +50% in multithreaded just by adding 2 extra e-cores alone. Seems to be barely any single threaded ipc gains. The 4x GPU improvement using same 10 core GPU probably is something that isn't done in h/w on the m3 such as RT workload, meaning barely any raster improvement. Not saying this is the end of apple, even if they're stagnating a bit. After all, intel did 5 years of skylake cores and still surviving just fine.

I am no fan of qcomm. I do think it's gonna fail but not so much the hardware being so terrible but more due to Microsoft and windows on arm not being on the same level or state of optimization that apple has done with macOS and their silicon.

Not sure why you seem so upset. We don't know the real pricing yet afaik. But if it's a huge fail, they're gonna have to be forced to price drop products to netbook celeron category, which means savings for us customers. I think 12 arm cores for $650 isn't too bad. But again, we'll have to wait and see how it goes. I've no doubt they'll initially try to charge much higher.. then if nobody buys into them, the fire sales may start. :)

Should they revive them,I wish the same music player that enabled both parties to enjoy music during a call be included too; I pretty much miss that, it was really cool 😎👌

Quote from: NikoB on Today at 16:53:11Now let's move on to things that are much more unpleasant for the consumer:
1. 32GB 5600 module costs $210. Despite the fact that DDR5 5600 costs $97. From the same company Crucial (for example).
2. These modules DO NOT provide any real significant speed advantages.
3. The declared lower consumption with the DO prefix must be proven in practice. In fact, the module consumption will change by 1-5% of the SoC consumption.

What do we actually have? That manufacturers are colluding to switch to a rare and expensive (at retail prices) type of memory under the pretext of "optimization," which does not give anything, but reduces competition by an order of magnitude, because these modules are practically not on sale in any store with rare exceptions and the prices are 2 times higher than now; besides, vile and greedy laptop manufacturers can justify increased prices for their models, where even with DDR4/DDR5 the prices for memory modules were inflated 3-4 times, like the prices for SSDs. Moreover, both memory modules and ssds come with a general warranty as part of the laptop, which is most often 1 year and rarely 2-3 years. Despite the fact that in retail most DDR4/5 memory modules come with a 5-10 year warranty, and 5 summer on SSDs of all leading brands at a much lower price than as part of a laptop.

Do you still need these stupid and super expensive LPCAMM2 modules?

chill out, it'll get cheaper with time, and also, chinese factories will be pumping them out in a bit, there's no lock in...any removable , upgradable component is better than none
