Intel's gaming laptop stuff ain't it right now

You know that Dave's serious when he ain't recommending teal backlit laptops

Basically he said: "intel, u are cheap now. Act like one."

Asus and Acer: Send laptops to Dave for review. Dave: *You don't deserve reviews.*

Love how I was on the internet looking for gaming laptops for my kid and a few days later this video pops up. I feel so connected to the internet. It’s so convenient and not at all creepy and stalker like.

ASUS really tried to buy off Dave with that colour combination xd

I love how I watched this just a day after I bought an intel gaming laptop

I can't imagine paying $1700 for a 4 core, Intel processor. You're absolutely spot on to point out that a laptop is so much more than appealing aesthetics, Dave. Great observation and recommendation.

The attention to detail in this video is amazing. the background wall, laptops, hoodie and desk everything sort of matches and gives a soothing minimalist feel.

My man being honest with his audience for 8 minutes straight!

So instead of making companies happy and making money, he is helping us save money. Genuine person, you earned a subscribler

I've been following your channel for over a year now and I must say that I really love these conversational type videos. It really gives us useful information we can use in looking for a good device that suits our needs. Can you do 1 for content creators who also like to game on the side but content creation being the primary use?

Me who just bought a gaming laptop and clicking on the video: *”Uh oh...”*

"If you buy a laptop with intel, you're being bamboozled" Dave Lee

Dave is one of the reviewer not only talk about tech, but also explains the market, the situation, the perspective. That’s why, I wouldn’t buy a laptop without his recommendation.

Wow, well articulated; at some point in the near future, I'll be getting the best gaming machine I can afford, your review comes off genuine and knowledgeable, and I'm a big dummy when it comes to choosing the right thing, and probably that's what these companies bet on, an uninformed consumer that will fall for aesthetics over functionality, so I'm subscribing! Thank you!

Dave: Here lemme put some nails on that Intel coffin

The only KZfaqr that doesn't do obnoxious thumbnails and clickbait, respect

I really like the silent background. Like there's literally no other sound being recorded. Make's the video much more impactful given how well the content was presented. Subbed... :)

I like this level of honesty... thanks dave!

I love how thoughtful he is for us viewers.

I love this guy, his intro is simple only 1 second and then he gets straight to the video. You sir, have earned a sub

Great review! Best and most random thing I noticed was no edit cuts and just concise, straight to the point facts!🙏🏼

I bought a zephyrus m15 a few months ago and I gotta say I'm pretty happy with it. Idk if it fits into this video (it's an intel) but instead of the 1700 it retailed for I got it for 1250 because someone returned it.

Imagine if AMD has not developed Ryzen. Intel would still be selling quad cores as i7s. Wait they still are? in 2021? but how?

I almost got that f15 when I missed the strix g17. Good thing I watched reviews.

Here’s something I’ve been wondering about, if the processor is fused into the motherboard, can’t I “professionally” claw it out and fuse another?

I love how there isn't a bunch of obnoxious EDM and over the top forced hype and energy in Dave's vids

*Amd ceo after watching this* Now that's what I call perfect review

100% agree. I was looking for a regular good laptop (non-gaming) and it looks like the market has them terribly price atm. For the price they want i am looking at gaming laptop territory price range and even then they are not worth it atm. However I am exited for AMD to release gaming laptops sometime this year and see how they are. So for now i think waiting is the better option.

Why is that all your views about products are soo much relatable ? Its not just one or two but every time you share your opinion on something its just like am talking to myself from the other side. Just love your perceptivity and thoughts man appreciated 👏💖

It is a literal trap. From the outside, it might look like a sweet gaming laptop. But inside, it might have intel integrated graphics!

Everyone's talking about Dave's honesty Me: How long is Dave's desk ?🙄

I saw a deal in Mediamarkt yesterday selling F15 for 1199 EUR. It has 3070 in it. I was about to buy it, I wanted it so much, but I just wanted to wait because I was not sure about how it is possible for that laptop to be 1199. Then I saw how it gets bottlenecked and now this video, Dave you are a life saver!

Glad you made this video on the TOPIC because I have been thinking about this a lot!

all kinds of traps, especially when you see RTX 3080 80W TDPs on "premium" laptops like the Stealth... Or when those same top notch laptops rocks intel cpus that aren't even last gen.

AMD: launches new generation that's faster and offers more Intel: launches old generation with less specs for more

I couldn't be happier to get this video recommended now, I was debating the F15 with RTX 3060 as I don't do anything that requires multi core performance, this video however opened my eyes, Legion here we come

Your discord really helped me find a laptop, thank you for this video 👍

Dave's videos are so clean I mean watching this literally calms me

Dave: "It doesn't make sense to put underpowered CPU's into laptops designed with premium aesthetics." * *Apple has left the chat* *

Saw some ASUS TUF laptops the other day which have AMD CPUs with either AMD/NVIDIA GPUs AND they're supposedly easy to disassemble. The one I was looking at had an additional NVMe bay which should be the norm rather than the exception. I use a Dell Precision laptop for work, and it's a phenomenal performer and easy to upgrade--but pricetag is very steep.

This looks like a good review channel. Seems honest and non-based about brands too. I needed this.

At this moment: Intel inside, Stupid outside.

Dman he look so young , no one can believe his age is 40

I can't help but almost throughout the video I'm looking at your jacket, as a reference for how to draw jackets and folds~ XD

Dave, I gotta agree with you. Everything you mentioned makes sense to me. But I have a question that the negative side of these processors is only less no fo cores, then this will affect on gamming only or on different software who needs good performance. also, multicore performance is important for those software and gaming? will you please elaborate.

This is why you and I watch Dave Lee's channel. Almost all, if not all, of his content, is just downright genuine and sugarcoat free.

Really love how the intro is simple and short, and how he instantly goes to the point!

Dude, everything in the camera is clean as frick, the dude has some nice sweater, the laptops are clean in their design, the Painting in the background is perfekt, dude how

Great video, thank you for sharing your opinion on the state of laptops

I clicked as fast as I could hoping it would be a g15 review, but then I saw the title

Dave's channel is the only channel where I don't skip a single second in any of his videos.

I was going through laptops on Amazon. What I found is, either they make it super expensive or they put I5 with 3060 etc. Or they give lower quality screens at 60hz. Something is always missing under 1k which is my budget. So either you get non gaming laptop or get 1.5k plus laptops

@5:50 it makes perfect sense, when you take into account that laptops take a long time to design and manufacture. back when these laptops were first conceptualized, Intel was on top. AMD must've caught everybody by surprise by how good their new mobile chips are. and once the design process starts, manufacturers can only choose to continue and release a potentially inferior product, or abandon the design and lose their money. so they went with the former and hoped for the best. i expect that we'll see similar AMD based laptops in the coming months. but for now, everything being released are the ones that were being developed when Intel was still the best.

Your videos are so clean and aesthetically pleasing. The thumbnails are beautiful... Makes me want to binge watch Dave Lee videos

Carpenter: How long you want your table to be? Dave: Yes

Very nice review..honesty above all.. just subscribed.

Really surprised you didn’t touch at all on heat concerns and core clocks. This all seems very justifiable if thermal throttling is an issue with higher core count cpus - the cpu you mentioned has higher clock speeds than the higher core count cpus, which is generally preferable for gaming, and I’d imagine heat wise it’s not even comparable.

Dave: Doesn't recommend intel laptops Intel: *"It was at this moment, we knew we f****d up."*

That intro was so clean holy

Thanks a lot for doing this. It's refreshing. And very helpful.

5:32 “32.3 cm x 22.8cm x 17.3m” Boy that’s a *THICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC* Laptop

Your video intro is, by far, my favourite on KZfaq. No Music that blasts you while other people are around.

Wow, insta subscribe - the voice and the colors are delightful.

love how im watching this video about the teal backlit laptop right after getting it

Dave: "these laptops don't deserve reviews" Still Dave: so anyway I started reviewing

how the hell is he so clean? I admire to be that minimalist.

I am glad I watched this just when i am researching about gaming laptops to buy in few weeks

Need more videos like this

When you are viewing it on the intel gaming laptop that arrived yesterday EDIT: Which F key? F1? F2?

I still can't believe you're 39. Are you drinking unicorn blood?

I just got the MSI GE75 10sf 2020 446 Model last Saturday and I'm happy with it. It has 5g video memory card, 500gb ssd drive, 1tb hdd drive and 17.3 screen and i'm happy with it.

this set is genius, amazing

So much respect on him. He’s one of the best tech reviewers out there.

Hey man, I appreciate the fact that as a freelancing reviewer it takes guts to call out something like this. Thank you for the great reviews!

Even if I know I have watched your video 500 times the thumbnail makes me click every time it's just pleasing to the eyes.

I need to buy a laptop for video editing and I watched so many of your videos and now I am more confused about which one to choose but I subscribed lol

Parallel universe Dave: HEYYY BUY THIS SIIICK WHITE NEW LAPTOP FROOOM INTEL Thank god we got the good honest Dave on our side lol.

I understand the point of your video and all, but I still haven't gotten over the bass in the new intro, it's incredible. I've literally rewound the video just to hear it again on headphones. I love everything you do, and all of your sets are beautiful

Randomly been finding loads of KZfaq vids and news articles on gaming laptops after buying my Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3. So far everything I've read makes it sound like I got a good ass deal. Even got it for a few hundred off, and could spend extra on upgrades and software. I'm not complaining.

Yes, you are "conveying this properly". Thanks much for the honesty and the heads-up.

*Every tech KZfaq channel covering smartphone Dave Lee covering laptops*

it feels like Dave's outro music reflects his overall character and the atmosphere of the channel. love D2D.

Fantastic video. Even now in October '21, Intel are selling i7 laptops with 4 cores. Going with AMD!

I like your videos. Keep up the good work Dave.

1:25 "sjdalkwjdlkajwdksalw Intel's laptop" I felt that.

I love how his intros change every video but are still so goooood

Appreciate the honest review well done

This video was soo calm

Your channel just upgraded to my 'Must Be Notified List'🙌

brother this honesty is appreciated

Don't know why I got this recommended now but whatever sound advice at the time and subbed

A month before you uploaded this video I've already experienced this. Long story short, Best Buy left my country by 31 of December of past year so they had an HUGE sale all over the country so because I wanted to update my 840 G1 I went to see what were selling and I found an A15 TUF (the metallic one with the 2060 and the ryzen 7 4th gen), because I didn't had all the money at the moment I left half paid in order to go to the ATM and paid all the money left and go out (it happened a problem with the card and I decided to better go straight to the ATM), to my surprise when I came back the casher had already sold the A15 and offered me an G512li-cherry with an i5 10th gen and an 1650Ti plus some gift card money, I didn't mind much at the moment because I used the gift card money for some Christmas gifts but the more I thought about it I regret it to purchase the G512li, it's not bad but the price it's horrible considering the A15 has a better CPU and an RTX GPU. If you are thinking of purchasing any laptop most of the time you are way better with AMD than Intel, I'm the only one that has an Intel in my house and everyone spended the same amount and yet I'm the one with the worst CPU, yeah it has some nice aesthetics (I love the ROG theme in purple) yet it's not worthy to pay the same as an way better system.

I feel Dave's frustration. Love the honesty.

We really need to hear honest reviews like this. Thanks Dave.

I kinda felt the same way too. Glad I waited it out for a Ryzen 9 5900HX. It just smokes intel with performance and value.

Start of COVID I got a low speck 17”Omen. I still love it.

When KZfaq recommends a video to you even before you get notified, you know it is gr8.

Love these kind of videos! You are the guy holding ethics in this tech review community together ❤. These laptop videos are my fav btw :D
