It's goofy people have to go into the BIOS in the first place. They should at least include a slider on the front of the PC, like the 1980s Turbo buttons.

Dear NBC, please ask AMD and/or Asus (for ROG Flow Z13) / HP (for ZBook Ultra G1a 14) about option for 12 GB VRAM.
Especially on 32 GB models this could be optimal/universal for gaming/productivity, 16 GB VRAM leaving bare minimum for system RAM and 8 GB VRAM being on the low side for some games and/or, say, DaVinci Resolve.

@Redaktion There is also another setting to improve ignificantly the battery life by giving power priority to CPU or GPU. The APU state can be set to P=0 or P=90 to save battery from the part of the APU that is used the least.

So you can get 9.5 hours of battery live while gaming!

The Phawx on youtube review: Asus ROG Flow Z13 - Strix Halo Review, explains this here. Most people do not know about this setting. (I can't post the link)

Oh great, can't wait for the upcoming review on this! Judging by the pwm showing in the screen shots I'm guessing you've the 2880x1800p OLED panel.

According to HP's own official QuickSpecs documentation, a notable difference between the OLED and FHD IPS is the difference in power draw. The FHD IPS draws 1.64-1.97 W whereas the OLED draws 4.09-4.42 W, when running between 150 nits and 200 nits.

Curious to see how this will impact the battery life between the two. Will you be reviewing a variant with the FHD IPS panel?
