The laptop will cost the same as a similarly-configured MSI GS66 while undercutting the Razer Blade 15 by $200. However, it will come with a slower 6-core Core i7-10750H CPU compared to the 8-core Core i7-10875H in the Razer.

These latest GeForce Super Max-Q laptops offer just marginal advantages over regular Max-Q laptops at best or they can even perform slower at worst.

Acer's 17.3-inch gaming laptop brings all the latest computer games smoothly onto the screen. The configuration is pleasing: A Comet Lake hexa-core processor, a GeForce RTX 2060 GPU, a 1 TB NVMe SSD and 16 GB of RAM (dual-channel) are on board.

The 2019 Blade 15 Base Model is now the cheapest it's ever been. You might want to have a secondary 2.5-inch SATA III drive or external drive ready though because the primary 256 GB SSD is going to fill up fast.

The latest Windows 10 Game Ready driver for NVIDIA GeForce cards unlock DirectX 12 Ultimate features on RTX GPUs. This may bring attributes such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing and mesh shading to certain games. The new driver also supports 9 more G-SYNC-enabled monitors from AOC, Dell, LG and other OEMs.

Dell has overhauled the G7 15 with a refined design and more powerful components. The G7 15 7500 will be available with up to an Intel Core i9-10980HK, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD. 144 Hz and 300 Hz IPS or 4K OLED displays are available too.

Tipster @CyberCatPunk leaked what appears to be a spec sheet for NVDIA’s upcoming flagship RTX 3080 Ti. If true, the 23 TFLOPs monster might be enough to take on AMD’s soon-to-be-launched Big Navi lineup.

Are laptops really better with two displays? At least one manufacturer is insisting on it. The high-power Zephyrus Duo 15 will offer a primary 15.6-inch FHD or 4K UHD display alongside a secondary 14.1-inch 3840 x 1100 touchscreen that tilts when opened.

An early example of the RTX 3080 Ti may have been spotted on 3DMark Time Spy. The Ampere GPU, thought to be based on a GA102, posted over a 30% higher graphics score than the RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition and even managed to outperform the NVIDIA TITAN RTX.

It is now becoming increasingly clear that the purported NVIDIA Ampere GA102 flagship GPU will come in three variants with memory capacities between 10 GB and 24 GB. NVIDIA may launch the flagship GA102-400 variant as an RTX 3090 or a new second gen Titan variant. Also, whether Ampere would actually use GDDR6X VRAM is still anybody's guess at this point.

Lenovo has released more details of a new addition to the IdeaPad Slim 7 line of notebooks. This one is powered by the Core i7-10750H processor, rather than the Ryzen 7 4700U like its 14-inch counterpart. However, the OEM has included dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics here...even if it is an older card.

A Dutch retailer recently listed the Acer Swift 5, apparently the first Tiger Lake Core i7-1165G7-powered laptop we’ve seen til date. The Swift 5 is set to launch on July 27th and should offer GeForce X350-equivalent GPU performance in an ultrabook form factor.

A tipster spotted a mention of “Van Gogh Lite” GFX 1040 graphics in what appears to be AMD driver code on Linux. This adds to the speculation that AMD will be launching Navi RDNA-powered APUs next year, with significant gains to GPU power.

The 2019 Blade Stealth was full of compromises. Want a faster CPU? Then you'll be stuck with integrated Intel graphics only. Want a faster GPU? Then here's a CPU that's even slower than before. Thankfully, you won't have to make such unnecessary trade-offs anymore with the latest 2020 Blade Stealth.

The latest Insider Preview Build of Windows adds GPU compute for the Windows Subsystem for Linux. One of the most often requested features, GPU compute allows users to run heavy computing tasks through their DirectX 12-supported GPU.

Our recent review of the HP Envy 17t highlighted some great facets and some small quibbles. While we like the build quality and the beautiful 4K screen, a confusing keyboard omission and lackluster battery life left us wanting more.

Need a supercharged AMD-based small form factor PC? Corsair has got you covered with the new One a100 mini tower system that resembles an Xbox Series X console. The One a100 systems feature high-end AMD Ryzen 9 3900X/3950X CPUs, RTX 2080 Ti / Super GPUs, plus Asus ROG Strix X570-I Gaming motherboards with 32 GB of DDR4-3200 RAM and 1 TB Corsair Force MP600 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD + 2 TB Seagate Barracuda HDD storage combos.

If you thought that NVIDIA had finished with the GeForce GTX 1650, then you thought wrong. A new version of AIDA64 has confirmed that NVIDIA has at least TU116 and TU106 SKUs planned. Yes, the GPU from the RTX 2060 and RTX 2070 is coming to the GeForce GTX 1650.

According to a Coreteks video, NVIDIA might be deploying a dual-sided PCB design, with a ray-tracing traversal coprocessor residing opposite the GPU die. This could potentially provide the RTX 3080 and RTX 30980 with a massive boost to ray-tracing capabilities.

Tipster @Casmoden spotted what looks to be a revamped AMD RX Radeon logo in the latest trailer for the PlayStation 5’s Godfall. The rebranding effort comes close to the arrival of AMD’s RDNA2 Big Navi later this year.

An image of what appears to be the purported RTX 3080's heatsink has leaked online indicating that NVIDIA will be introducing a new dual-fan mechanism with a huge cooling block and at least four heat pipes with the upcoming Ampere GPUs. The top-end GA102 GPU will use the PG133 board for the Founders Edition of the RTX 3090, RTX 3080 Ti, and RTX 3080, which will use the new cooling system while AiBs are supplied with the PG132 board that allows for custom cooling designs.

New versions of the Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptops are now available for purchase in India. They are all powered by 10th-generation Intel Comet Lake processors. Choices of CPUs include the Core i5-10300H and Core i7-10750H. On the GPU side of things, one can pick an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, GTX 1650TI or RTX 2060. Prices start at INR 72,990($962), and the laptops are available for purchase on Acer's official website.

Surprisingly, battery life on the Core i7 GeForce option is almost the same as on the Core i5 iGPU option. The $1000 surcharge brings significantly faster graphics performance at the cost of running both louder and warmer in the process.

Dell has released the XPS 17 9700 and Precision 17 5750. The devices start at US$1,399.99 and US$2,399 respectively. However, you must spend US$1,899.99 if you want a dedicated GPU with the XPS 17 9700 and at least US$2,849.99 for an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q model.

The Asus laptop comes with a beefy 76 Wh battery for such a small screen size and yet our original battery life tests were disappointing. With a second unit on hand, however, we've rerun some of our tests and the results are now hours longer.

Details of the upcoming Xiaomi Mi Notebook 14 have started leaking out. Apparently, four models will be made available, with customers being able to select from 10th Gen Intel Core processors and a dGPU from Nvidia. Prices are expected to start at ₹50,000 (US$662) for the base Mi Notebook 14, which will be launched in India on June 11.

A series of fan-made renders of the upcoming Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 have been published online shortly after the revelation of a photo of the alleged reference design hit the news headlines. The Ampere-based RTX 3080 looks very different from the designs utilized for the GeForce 20 series.

A picture purporting to be the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 has leaked, possibly showing what RTX 3000 reference designs will look like. Specifications for the RTX 3080 have been offered, too.

AMD's CFO David Kumar recently claimed that the company's upcoming RDNA2 graphics cards, including the "halo" "Big Navi" product, will arrive before the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. This means 4K/60 AMD Navi cards could be available in just a few months.

Huawei's latest iteration of the MateBook X can still stand toe-to-toe with some of the best Ultrabooks available, but it's such a minor update over previous versions that you may as well buy a 2018 or 2019 model instead.
