Title: Alienware m17 R5 with AMD hardware reviewed: Suboptimal drivers unnecessarily slow down strong AMD gamer
Post by: Redaktion on January 18, 2023, 08:58:56
Compared to the combinations of Intel CPU and Nvidia graphics, gaming laptops with a CPU and a GPU both from AMD are in the minority. If all pure AMD machines have major driver problems similar to the current Alienware m17 R5, then this is unlikely to change. It's a shame really, because the potential remains untapped.

> Immature drivers seem to be another problem.

AMD hardware has always been known for exactly this. Which by no means makes NVIDIA hardware a good buy, mind you.
