This laptop is interesting, to say the least! The Intel NUC laptop that no one knew existed may actually have a huge place in this market! Today, we’re going to test it out in eSports and AAA titles to see just how good it is for the price.

If they used the A730M instead of the A530M it would be a nice laptop. As is, that 144Hz monitor will spend most it's life below 100 fps.

Would have been nice if you showed the power wattage for the GPU while gaming. I saw it maxed out at 100% usage. According to the specs on Intel, it says "60W - 80W TGP". It feels like the performance I get from my Iris integrated graphics. How does the laptop determine to use the integrated vs discrete GPU?

I bought an X15 from newegg myself a couple of months ago (12th Gen I7, A550m, 32GB, 1TB for $700). Basically it's a bare bones laptop kit that the seller did minimal and outdated setup. Not ready out-of-the-box and had to reinstall/update everything from the BIOS to the drivers and OS. Now it purrs like a kitten...very powerful for the money, so I'm pleased. I was more concerned with stuff like CPU, RAM, and DPC latency...the graphic performance was just a bonus. The X15 had better specs than anything else in that price range. Using it mainly for content creation, with only some occasional gaming. Not a gamer really, but I have stuff collected from sales like the Star Wars games (Battlefronts, Fallen Order, Squadrons), Guardians of the Galaxy, the Batman Arkhams, racing games, etc. plus some console emulation. This laptop has handled everything I've thrown at it so far. No branding or logos whatsoever so I like to tell people it was made in Wakanda.

AV1 encoder quality on these Arc gpus is actually pretty good so I guess dedicated streaming machine could be one of the use cases? Sure, rtx 4050 also has AV1 encoders but these Arc laptops are still at least couple of hundred of $/€ cheaper if thats all that you need so it might not be a bad deal at all. I stream couple of sports events every year and having AV1 available would be pretty great tbh

@ChuwiEnjoyer Ай бұрын

I kind of like the bundle that this laptop represents, although it is a little unbalanced. The 8gb of VRAM along with a beefy CPU at 700 dollars is a killer value, although it is hamstrung by drivers, cooling (hitting over 90 degrees whilst below 50% utilization) and just 16gb of RAM. The RAM you can fix though, and drivers do get better over time. If only they had gone with an i7-12650h and cut the price by another 20$, but thats just me being nitpicky. Overall, good job and nice find!

@washingtonrocha8877 27 күн бұрын

I bought this laptop on Newegg and I had to return it. I didn’t want to return, but unfortunately, it had a lot of bugs. I think was due to bad drivers from Intel, this laptop manufacturer. Mine was i7 12th, 32ram, gpu a730m 12gb. It is a beast. Super fast… Now let’s talk the problems. First off, battery life is terrible. I think it didn’t last 30 minutes. I did everything, updated all the drivers, installed OS again from scratch and no success. The fans get very loud in idle sometimes. One time I left it charging on my bed, and if I didn’t come back too see my bed could be in fire. It was sooo hot that I could smell burnt plastic. And the main problem for me when you closed the lid it won’t go to sleep mode… after all this is a very solid construct laptop, excellent trackpad, speakers, keyboard and screen. But with very bad drivers.

@saschapurner9579 7 күн бұрын

I did have my one since half year now and be happy after modding it with a lot of cooling pads. In the Bios i am Able to allow the OS Energy Plans also. No Problems with anything, Linux and Arc with Games runs also Good. I hope my one stay for a long time.^^

Unfortunately it only makes sense recently to go with Intel, and not with this model. Intel has refused to have a decent mobile CPU and integrated GPU for generations and now they finally have the Core Ultra series. Unfortunately it looks like this one might use one of the categorically dismissible CPUs from the ~8th to 14th gens that are all low end trash for mobile use.

For $100 more you can get the A730M version and get 30%-50% better gaming performance which is still a great price and the A730M beats the 2050M pretty handily in newer titles and 3d benchmarks. .
