The Schenker XMG Ultra 17 has to prove itself, being one of the first notebooks with a six-core processor.

SCHENKER:
With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Mobile: Pascal based laptop graphics card using GDDR5 graphics memory. Should offer a similar performance to the deskto GTX 1080. However, there is also a more power efficient "Max-Q" version that performs worse than the normal GTX1080 and is used in thin and light laptops.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Mobile: High-End laptop graphics card based on the TU104 chip with 2,944 shaders and 8 GB GDDR6 VRAM. Compared to the desktop variant, the GPU is clocked lower.

Intel Coffee Lake:
i7-8700: High-end desktop processor based on the Coffee Lake architecture. Offers 6 cores with Hyperthreading clocked at 3.2 - 4.6 GHz. Compared to the 8700K, the 8700 offers a lower clock speed, less TDP and no overclocking possibilities.
i9-9900K: High end desktop processor based on the Coffee Lake architecture. Integrates 8 cores (16 threads) clocked at 3.6 - 5 GHz and a integrated UHD Graphics 630 GPU. Fastest Coffee-Lake CPU at the time of announcement in 2018 and produced in the 14nm++ process.

4.284 kg:
A laptop with this weight is comparatively heavy and less designed for mobility than for use at the desk. Therefore, the devices tend to shine less with battery life than with a large screen and higher performance.
4.368 kg:
86.67%: This is an above-average rating. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that about one fifth of all tested models receive a better rating.
