Quoteold Zen 4 processor
To be fair, Zen 4 is still fine bc Zen 5 didn't bring much to gaming as most modern games are mainly GPU-bound: Which brings us to the core issue: The 5070 Laptop (= 5060 desktop GPU chip) and (hence) its only 8 GB VRAM vs the 2200 bucks price.
Quotealthough there may be limitations due to the lower 8 GB VRAM.
Good to see it mentioned. Wait for next year's Refresh models, which gonna finally use 3GB GDDR7 chips, instead of the current 2GB ones (=+50% VRAM increase), which is already the case for all 5090 24GB VRAM Laptop GPUs, because the GPU chip used in there is the same one that is used in 5080 desktop GPUs, which, as we all know, only have 16 GB of VRAM due to using 2GB GDDR7 chips (256bit bus width chip/32bit per chip=8 2GB GDDR7 chips attached to the GPU chip).
The IPS display looks fine on the first glance.
Quotemax. 64 GB
This amount of maximum RAM capacity is not enough for certain open-weight LLMs and is future-proof anyway. Should be at least max. 96 GB RAM, better 128 GB RAM.
Who is gonna buy this, if the FA608WV has a much better CPU and only slightly worse GPU?
