Powerful midrange! The AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, which is equipped with some RDNA 3 genes, currently competes with Nvidia's RTX 4070 models. In terms of VRAM, AMD is ahead with 16 GB. But whether the same also holds true for the performance, we analyze using the Asus TUF Gaming Radeon RX 7800 XT OC. We ran the board partner model through numerous benchmarks to determine the performance of the midrange Desktop GPU.

Better than Intel? Asus also offers its Zenbook 14 OLED as a cheaper version featuring an AMD Ryzen 8000 processor—that even delivers better performance than the Meteor Lake variant. It does, however, face limitations when it comes to its RAM and its Full HD OLED panel which only has a 60 Hz refresh rate.

Up to 64 GB RAM. Dell has created the new XPS 13 out of its old XPS 13 Plus and—the same as with its larger siblings—this means it has an unconventional keyboard and an annoying touchbar. The new Core Ultra processor from Intel delivers decent everyday performance, however, its IPS display is a lot dimmer than advertized.

Equipped with an Intel Core i9-13900H as well as fast DDR5 RAM, it can accommodate several SSDs in the device - all this sounds promising.

89% Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i 16 G9 laptop review: MiniLED with 1200 nits and Core Ultra 9

Now with Advanced Optimus, but the power supply is too weak. Lenovo has improved its multimedia Yoga Pro 9i 16 flagship of the G9 generation in several areas. The 3.2K mini LED panel with 1200 nits is optionally matte and accompanied by Advanced Optimus. We put the most powerful configuration, which has the Core Ultra 9 185H and GeForce RTX 4070 laptop, to the test.

The Scar 16 continues to uphold Asus's peak gaming performance tradition. However, it comes with a few caveats and faces an equally performant competition that vie for your hard-earned cash.
