NotebookTalk Show-n-Shine Thread - Show Off Your Rig Here
Shark00n replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
Thanks! Yeah ITX is in a great place right now. Huge community of people building tiny PCs, lots of case and motherboard choice, good PSUs, lots of air/watercooling stuff made specially for tiny cases. Plus the nvidia 40 series and ryzen CPUs offer so much control in terms of performance per watt you donβt have to give up much performance. Thereβs also a 4060 low profile card available thatβs awesome for super tiny media/gaming station kind builds, even the 4090 can be tiny once you slap a waterblock on it π Thanks but I think the photos are terrible! π π€£ Donβt have proper lighting in hereβ¦ Next step I need to get me a pelican type transport case for it π -

Here's my rig, no more high performance laptops for me More photos and details on PC Part Picker - Say hello to my little friend! by Shark00n - AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, GeForce RTX 4090 - PCPartPicker -
40 series super cards seem to have started to take shape with increased VRAM across the board (except for the unconfirmed 4090 super). Rumoured release Q2 2024. Anything on super mobile?

Cool. What about during small loads? For most of my everyday computing my laptop is dead silent. Most of them are. It's a screamer under load though. But during those small-load times when the laptop would go silent, does the LPP follow the same behaviour or does it start getting annoying then?

Best of luck. Does it even roughly fit the top lid? π -

Clevo with Framework GPU interconnect standard?
Shark00n replied to KabyZen's topic in Sager & Clevo
Quite like the idea and its potential. Let's talk in 3 or 4 generations time π€£ -
What are the stock RAM modules in these laptops? Thinking of getting the 16GB version and then just buying a 2x16GB DDR5 kit. The upgrade thru lenovo is pricey! Any decent 5600MHz JEDEC kits out there? Also, I've seen so many reviews have been posted lately about the Pro 7i. But every single one of them has the 4080. Anyone seen 4090 results?

Same. They go for about the same where I'm located. Legion is a bit cheaper but the watercooling on this has me curious to try. Have you got the WC system @Gumwars? How's the experience been with that? Did you ever think the unit was too noisy without it?

This generation of mobile GPUs would be a much easier pill to swallow if the 4090 was a 4080, 4080 a 4070 and 4070 a 4060. Pricing would also need obvious adjusting. They'd never do it though. I went from moderately excited for this gen and really considering an upgrade (from my 11th gen + 3080 as it can't really keep up with 4K gaming) to a definite skip.

I understand your point and agree, but Harry Potter is a broken mess of a console port π

Thanks, but I wouldn't be caught dead purchasing an Asus laptop π Fixed plenty of friends machines to develop some sort of resistance to it. They are just a b*tch to work on and look unprofessional, IMHO! Alienware will be up there I think, with the best performing this year. But they're not present in my country. I've done it before with a friend's address when I purchased a 17 R4 a few years ago, but the support is very crummy where I'm located. Yeah... The Clevo doesn't appear to bring anything new or different to the table. Shame π

No point having 16GB if you don't have the memory bus to keep up. And these laptop chips don't. I still have to, reluctantly, replace my 3080 Legion 7i soon. It's a pretty nice machine but the 3080 and 11th gen can't really keep up with 4K gaming as well as I'd like. Thinking the Tongfang/XMG/Eluktronics 17" with watercooling and 4090 is the way to go if the pricing isn't too bad. It isn't as upgreadeable or solidly built as I'd like but that doesn't exist anymore. At least it's more or less a thick-boy and the watercooling does great in keeping the noise down and the performance consistent. Seems like we can't really ask for more in 2023. Don't see the point in waiting out for Clevo's flagship.
-
We've all seen Clevo's newest X170 replacement, the X370. It's obvious it's quite a departure from standard Clevo designs from old. Lost modularity and power delivery in favour of a slimmer design no one was asking for, etc... But still is it gearing up to be the most powerful 4090 laptop?
-
When's the 4090 model expected? Not sure I fancy this AI-tuning business. Can one use it to fullest potential without it?

Yeah it's the Strix Scar, but they have the exact same specs as the one you linked. Seems to me quite a useless overlap from Asus's part. The Strix G18 and Strix Scar 18 with the 4080 share everything but the chassis and keyboard RGB. Apparently fancy colors are worth a 1500β¬ premium, at least in europe π€£

Has it ever been in stock? 'Cause that laptop costs 3999β¬ in europe. 4699β¬ for the 4090 version.

My Legion 7i scores 13k on TimeSpy so it's just 21% slower than those 4080+13th gen scores. It's got a regular 3080, not Ti. 11th gen CPU. And it's going on 2 years. Cost me 2250β¬. I dont know, your mileage may vary. And with the TDPs manufacturers fancy performance is going to be all over the place. Color me not so impressed.
-
4080 is barely faster than 3080Ti, which was already barely faster than 3080. How is frame generation synonimous with 'great performance'? They're fake frames. I'd say that tech is nice when you have less than 60FPS, still wouldn't use it, and pretty pointless over 60FPS.
