A good place to focus is on the CPU. You will find a variety of options here as AMD and Intel compete for the top spot. When it comes to Intel, you generally want to go with an i7 or an i9, as these are going to provide the most robust level of performance. The i9 is consider...
As with all of my CPU reviews, I stuck with almost identical test benches across Arrow Lake, Zen 5 and Zen 4, and Intel’s previous-gen Raptor Lake processors, only swapping out the CPU and motherboard between the various platforms. I’m using an RTX 4080 and a kit of DDR5-6000 mem...
this is a good vidio about cpu. but even thow cpus only have a 3 year warranty they dont seem to just die. unless its the new stuff... but as the nm gets smaller more problems happen so more failers. but for most people it last long enough they wil most likey upgra...

I'm worried that the 7900 XTX will be bottlenecked considering it's between the 4080 and 4090. So is the X3D CPU the way to go? I don't want to invest in a full AM5 upgrade as it's expensive. The X3D is 300 eur here on sale. 0 Likes Reply elstaci MVP 11-26-...
If you got $1200 rather get a 4080S, or save some money with a 4070TiS ($800), which is nearly as good for 20% less AMD R97950X3DCPU/Asus ROG STRIX X670E-Eboard/2x32GB G-Skill Trident Z Neo 6000CL30RAM/ASUS TUF Gaming AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX OC EditionGPU/Phanteks P600Scase...
The Razer Blade 18 (2024) is the pinnacle of gaming laptop hardware, with a gorgeous 4K 200Hz display, Thunderbolt 5, Intel's i9-14900HX CPU, and up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 GPU. You'll pay for the privilege, though, and the powerful hardware runs hot and tears through battery...
While we're discussing thermals, it's worth highlighting that the Intel Core i9-13900HX CPU was drawing around 150W under sustained load, while the RTX 4080 laptop GPU was also at its best behavior, operating at over 170W under heavy GPU load. They're tuned to chug less power if you ...
Moving on, this motherboard also has got quite a number of expansion possibilities at the I/O area. It comes with a Display Port and HDMI port for video output via the CPU’s graphics chip. It also has 2 x USB 2.0 Type-A ports, 5 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports (4 x Type-A and 1x...
I'm going to go ahead and say you probably don't need to spend that much on a gaming laptop, period. Sure, the relatively cheaper model I used only has a 1080p display instead of 4K, but that 144Hz refresh rate more than makes up for a few jagged edges here and there. On occasi...
