Gigabyte: Gigabyte Technology is a Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer founded in 1986, best known for its motherboards and graphics cards. Gigabyte offers a wide range of products including motherboards, graphics cards, laptops, monitors, systems and components. Gigabyte's laptops offer gaming and creative features on the go. Gigabyte monitors offer 4K Pro Gaming.


These graphics cards are able to play the latest and most demanding games in high resolutions and full detail settings with enabled Anti-Aliasing.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop: Fast mobile graphics card from the Blackwell family, which Team Green presented at CES 2025. The 5070 have 4608 CUDA cores with 8 GB GDDR7 VRAM.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


AMD :

Ryzen AI 7 350: A relatively powerful Krackan Point family processor that was introduced in early 2025. The APU integrates 8 CPU cores (4 Zen 5 cores with up to 5 GHz and 4 Zen 5c cores with up to 3.5 GHz).

AMD Strix Halo/Point (Zen 5/5c, Ryzen AI 300):

Ryzen AI 9 HX 370: A powerful Strix Point family processor that debuted in June 2024. The Ryzen AI 9 series APU comes with 12 CPU cores, the 16 CU RDNA 3+ Radeon 890M graphics adapter and the 50 TOPS XDNA 2 neural engine. There is still no PCIe 5 support here and 8 of the CPU cores are slower than the other 4.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


16.00:

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


No weight comment found (one expected)!


79.71%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
