A review of the HP EliteBook 865 G10 business laptop. (AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 7840U, 16GB DDR5, 512TB PCIe Gen4x4, AMD Radeon 780M iGPU, 16" FHD IPS)
HP has refreshed the EliteBook 865, now in its 10th Generation. New AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors and iGPUs, brighter display panels and faster DDR5 memory. Is it enough to keep this AMD powered 16 inch business laptop on top?

This is such a great review and so under-viewed! Thanks!!! The only thing I didn't like about this laptop is screen resolution (only full HD). It would have made a whole lot difference if it is at least 2K :(. Other than that, everything else seems perfect!

Thanks! HP have been letting the EliteBook range rot over the last few years. Totally agree, the display lets the side down.

Can a third party AV like Bitdefender run along side Wolf Security or should Wolf Security be disabled if it can be disabled? How does Wolf security compare to Bitdefender? Thanks!

It only has one heatpipe cooler. P16s and P16V have more. The 14" Thinkpads and Elitebooks usually hit +55c on keyboard top row with long sustained workloads.

Hi, can you explain if the iGPU that is Radeon can carry out computations with Machine Learning and Deep Learning professionals? Or that's only performable on Nvidia Graphics cards that support both Tensor and CUDA cores? I'd appreciate your reply. Thanks.

@Dovecomputers 8 ай бұрын

The answer is yes it can ( AMD provides a software platform called ROCm that supports major machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch) but won't be as good as a NVIDIA dedicated GPU. So if you rely on it for your workflow, get a workstation with a NVIDIA RTX Ada GPU.

You are comparing battery life of a x86 vs an ARM CPU? Might wanna compare performance under some real load like a KVM virtual machine. ARM processors are completely dead meat once you throw a VM on them.
