      TBH the only other modern laptop I've used was a 16" M2 Pro MacBook Pro, so not really a fair comparison haha. The biggest thing I'll say is that it doesn't "feel" cheap, which is a little bit of what I was expecting. Battery life isn't amazing, but for me that's not a big deal. I have the 13th gen i5, but with what I do, I could get by with like a 6th gen mobile i5 lol. I do wish there were two internal NVMe slots, because I would be interested in dual booting with linux mint or something. Overall I like it.

    Is NAS the way to go? or there are better solutions (not cloud)?
    but I am worried that the constant power would cause failure to the HDD motor. Also, I have read that companies such as WD and Seagate have gone to higher density HDD which reduces the costs of the drives but has lower data retention periods.

    For a lot of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen Ryzen based on my testing as a used local buyer/seller and Bryan from Tech YES City made a video on it as well a while back.
    These Ryzen CPUs saw an improvement of memory to 2933mhz to 3000mhz would make around 7% to 11% increase. After that 3200mhz made not much a difference at about a 1% to 2% more. Then no more improvements or making it worse at above 3200mhz.
    This is based on memory and the motherboard. Teamgroup has mostly been best in compatiblity with majority of AM4 CPUs and mothetboards. Corsair was usually worse. But that was based on my variables.
    My sister has a Ryzen 5 3600 for editing for some years now with an MSI A320M using PB. I have a Ryzen 7 1800x in my newer rig with an ASUS X470. And I've built only with Ryzen 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen before covid.
    Loved the videos.
    Completely forgot about Ryzen Master software. Man I love Ryzen. Was funny cause I remember AMD wasn't a favorite to anybody back then. Now, more buyers want AMD like Intel making it half and half of sales and great for customers.

    I'm not well versed in virtualizing graphics, or gpu splitting. That being said, I think it is logical to experience slow down when trying to virtualize a gpu without passing through the bare metal. The process has to go through more layers between endpoints, and also the possibility that the resources needed to virtualize the gpu slow down the process. I could be wrong, but that is what makes sense to me.

    You should add WoW to your CPU tests. Its very CPU dependant and lots of people still play it. You could always do a trial version. Getting a steay repeatable run together would be an issue but perhaps just putting a character in a busy area like near a bank/auction house in either stormwind or the horde town (been years since I played). Lots of motion to hurt the CPU.

    Bought the same one from ebay with Ryzen 2400GE in it and 32gb of RAM. Added low profile Radeon 6400 to it and my kid is beyond happy, this thing rocks in Fortnite, Valorant not mentioning Roblox. Now, I do have Ryzen 7 2700 (non X) laying around, still haven't tried it in to see if it supports it.

    I would have made the power cables longer and made the power supply external allowing hopefully for a proper GPU providing of course than dell didn't cheap out and actually provided the full 75 watts to the pcie slot per the pcie spec. Sometimes dell does not do this.

  • @BonusCrook

    You're the goat for figuring out how to use ryzen master to get better ram performance. You should try using a pcie extension cable to squeeze a better gpu in there somewhere maybe an RTX 4060 LP using a 2x sata to 8-pin.

    A bit ago, I picked up a dell 7050 SFF which came with 8GB of DDR4 RAM. On paper, it can handle an i7-7700, but came with a i5-6500. Bought a 32GB pack, but left the 8GB in. So while the RAM is slowed down a bit, 40GB isn't to sneeze at. Will get a i7 at some point as they are quite cheap. Don't think I'm going to bother with a GPU though. There's just not enough room.

    It's unfortunate the built in encoders in the Ryzen CPUs are so inefficient or poorly supported (not sure which is the bigger issue). I have an HP SFF with a 3400G Pro in it, but power draw shoots up when trying to transcode. Not sure if it's worth upgrading the GPU, but considering what you spent I'm pretty sure buying a base system with an intel chip would be the better option.

    Bro, the risk to the system not post can be reduced by update BIOS first.
    My Dell Latitude does not support my actual processor, but with a BIOS update it simply works.
    Dell does not keep up to date the documentation, but the rule is for almost all AM4 series.
    If you have 1, 2 or 3 you can update between them, and 4 and 5 the same.

    Battery power would be nice, but isn't mandatory.
    I want something portable, but powerful enough to run the above.
    (of course, if I'm going to spend $600, I might as well buy a more modern PC with the awful chiclet keys)
    This looks like a good enough solution if I can get a cheaper gfx card that will do.

My desktop has DDR5-6000 which is displayed in task manager as 6000 Mhz, and my laptop with DDR4x is showing the full value in task manager as well.. Not halved. i have no idea how windows picks and chooses whether it will display the halved rate, or the double rate..

    i have a t400 in my dell poweredge r630 i use it to render videos. to e exactly i render pictures out of weather stations from 5000 locations with each frame represents 5 min from one month. i do this for 7 values. then i have a big folder of pictures and now with my location renderer code i can select exactly those locations i need and render a video out of all pictures overlaid. also i have the option with openCV and machine learning to find locations of interrest and make a special video of it.
    the most work this system does is cpu and ram bandwidth bound the t400 does mostly nothing. i need it for keras and open cv because the cpu is already packed and doing machine lerning stuff and rendering needs much more power as the cpu can provide the gpu is much better in this stuff even this tiny one. is 5 times faster as both xeon E5 2699v3 combined
    the whole run takes 2h to 5h on that system i have done this before on my ryzen9 5950x but this was way worse it took over 50h. if you consider i crawl through 10Tb of data with 1.562.400.000 data points this is really fast
