These new chips are FREAKING FANTASTIC. Especially if you don’t push them too hard and keep ‘em under 75 watts.
Any at a lower price?
Oi dave, please arrange a gpu for me at msrp. Please 🙏🙏🥺🥺
yep they sure are

E8400 was a beast tho.
Core 2 quad here. Basically everything past mobile 5th gen i5 is faster but oh well.
i can't help but admire the awesome background! it's like a super modern, industrial-looking bunker
Good video overall. I like your graphs and how they broke down each category. Also I like RGB colors on it.
I was sceptical, but it seems like Intel really did a great job at taming the 12th gen's power hungry chips for mobile platforms! Amazing to see the competition between team Blue and team Red back on fire. Can't wait to see what AMD's response is!
AMD's responded already by ryzen 6000
They didn't though. Look at the sites that are actually doing technical testing and the "feels fast-guys" like Dave2D.
Everyone is saying this will be a nightmare due to thermal issues. It seems like Intel purposely did this move to so "tech-reviewers" can say how fast it is, but it's basically useless power as the thermal issues will eat away battery and long-term reliability.
@@pepesilvia4564 I did not know that thermals eat away battery but don’t you mean durability instead of reliability?

Super interested in how these new Intel chips work in other chassis configurations and contexts. Loved to see Intel back at it and infuse even more competition like Apple did with the M1 chips!
Wow, the comparison with desktop, pretty amazing! Great content Dave!

Daym Dave, you didn't have to hurt me like that
Jesus, Dave2D your presentation and layout of your videos are 1000/10! You and Greg Salazar are the only 2 guys that are OCD oriented PC guides that have all the facts about anything PC/Laptop related talks and we appreciate all you do for us!
Thanks for the time you're putting into reviewing these devices.
And he is going it for free as well. I mean, that this is not an ad at all. He is just a good guy who reviews laptops for free and he is totally unbiased.
Great review, especially the ice melting touch heheheh, I can imagine the power adapter might be huge…
I'm glad that AMD's and Apple's innovations are keeping Intel on their toes. In their monopoly, CPUs like these would hit the market in late 2020s. Still, an ARM future awaits. PC's will get much faster yet will be less customizable, I'm afraid
Bro we saw number today.
@Joe macbook was using intel cpus like virtually everyone else. No innovation needed if you control the whole market share.
Edit : it's intel who did monopoly if you haven't got it already.
Customization won’t die out however even if they will be lest customizable, this is reflected in the keyboard community with incredible amounts of money spent for a different feel/sound/look.
@Joe he said 'was' bro
@@nabara6949 They used Intel because they had no choice. Now the M1 pretty much dominates Windows laptops in rendering and other specific tasks. It can even game decently,while the Intel ones barely struggled no matter what specs they had.
gaming laptops have come so far in the last couple years. i cant wait for the future
I really like so much how you review a device ...
Thanks a lot for that
awesome video.
i like your overall presentation!
@Dave2D is this you?
finally all the laptop videos from everyone is rolling into my subscription box, I'm so excited
Same here. I was keep searching ces details.
I had been waiting for this. Great review as always!
Would have loved to see the comparison with the other laptops continue in battery life.
as soon as i watched this vid i subbed love your content btw
This laptop is faster than my desktop? Umm yeah Dave. Even a smartphone is faster than my desktop
My desktop is a pi400 idk why he has to kick me when im already laying on the ground
Love your wallpapers. Nice review, by the way. Could you please review some monitors in the 27"-32" segment and not super expensive (mostly work and a little play). If it has integrated speakers then thats even better!
see hardware unboxed
These specs are amazing and very fast! As long as there is no thermal throttling... As laptops tend to be vulnerable to
I extremely hope this MONSTER OF A LAPTOP goes on sale as soon as possible!
Me who doesn't even have a desktop: Ahh yes emotional damage
Steven He: EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
I have an msi GE66 Intel i7 3070 and it was such a massive jump from my desktop it blew my mind I've been gaming solely on this laptop and it's the best gaming experience I've ever had
Great info btw, some stuff I really wanted to know.
these new 12th gens are looking so much better than I was expecting. However I'm going to wait and see what the next generation of Ryzen chips offer before I make a decision. I can wait a while longer thankfully so may as well see what's what towards the end of the year. thanks for the incredible insight. always a fan of your content :)
Very cool. Was debating going laptop or desktop as its time for a refresh. These new 12th gen laptops are making the choice harder
Intel was keeping this technology for 2030 but the pressure from competitors made them release it earlier 😂😂😂
nothing impressive btw, high amount of cores combined with high TDP gets you eye catching results, but efficiency / performance metric is still far away for perfection especially when used on mobile devices such as laptops. i would declare intel as a winner if they can pull off higher performance with the same efficiency as a M1 Max.
Intel 12900HK uses 115Watts to deliver that performance, while the CPUs it is being compared against use 45Watts..
They really should be mentioning that while showing benchmarks instead of misleading the audience
@@mishomaisuradze8205 From your comments you sounds like true AMDumbs aka AMD fanboy, you just mad because your zen 3 and soon 6000 series which is still based on zen 3 totally got destroyed by Intel Alder Lake. It's not even competition.
@@evileye4797 115w is short burst, you obviously AMD fanboy who don't know how TDP works in Intel CPU, its not even the same like in AMD. Honestly you AMD fanboy are just mad because Intel put AMD to the shame with Alder Lake, not even 6000 series can save AMD because it still based on zen 3 and there are benchmark leak already that shows 6900HX is 30% slower than i9-12900HK.
Edit : I just realized my comments triggered Apple fanboy and AMD fanboy because i said the facts Intel smoke those 2 CPU.
@@runninginthe90s75 dude, the 45w is talking about the Macs, harcore Intel fanboy here from what i can see
Missed you dave 2d but its lookin like time to upgrade and i need to know whats the what lets see those big laptop reviews!
I've been saying since the Alder Lake announcement that I thought that the laptop sector would be where they really shine. Having the P and E cores just seemed purpose built with laptops in mind.
You forgot to mention the most important part,
*This year's GE76 is MUCH more expensive than last year*
How much does this thing cost ?
He's selling a laptop, saying it's 3.5k and performance 15% in games is not what intel's wants him to say.
@@medimeb edit: top SKU will be $4200 USD according to notebookcheck, (pre-tax, and excluding the upcharge on added storage and memory)
Assuming this is the GE76 Raider, the current configuration (12900 + 3080 Ti) is to be listed at $4000.
I’m using a $1850 MacBook. This thing’s tempting because it can game, but it’s not $4000 tempting. I’d rather build a comparable desktop for that $2150 price delta.
can't wait to finally get the new gen intel laptops to finish my dual pc setup ! sounds very promising !
Just received my 2012 TUF GAMING F15 today with 12700H!
Cant wait to hear your thoughts on it, and for me to go home and turn it on!
Such a amazing informative video it is.
Quite an informative review, I am looking forward to the performance of Intel's 12 Generation laptop chips in a thinner chassis, in particular the Dell XPS 15 and 17 inch models. I would like to see what thermal cooling solution Dell implements with the higher specification 12th Generation chips, hopefully, they do not rely on aggressive thermal throttling.
They do aggressively limit TGP to both CPU and GPU. IMO this is a better tradeoff for most people compared to the older 9560 where they just let it run at max power until it hits a brick wall and throttles down to 10% clock speeds and the whole system starts to stutter. On the other hand, I was able to stop the throttling on my 9560 by a combination of cutting holes in the bottom shielding, getting a laptop cooling pad, and buying a portable AC to bring the room temperature down. So I guess technically I have the 'best of both worlds' 🤣 (edit: although yes, I'd rather they just give it adequate cooling in the first place)
Avoid dell xps at all cost, their thermal systems and cooling are a joke for both xps and vostro series
This is excellent. Looking forward to seeing what this looks like at 1440P and 4K. I was not expecting a 20% bump vs. prior 3080s.
But now for that pricing...
price .... hell no. we do not deserve it
It’s definitely gonna cost around or over $4k.
@@rengawr7734 they meant 4k resolution
ye for the price u can get like 3 Lenovo Legion 5 with R7 5800H and RTX 3070, which is performing only like 40% worse than these new MSI high end one.
I have one and I can say for the price its more than awesome and u wont actually need anything up such specs rn to play games with high and ultra settings.
@@green_block For that money u could build such a nice desktop PC. In terms of price-performance ratio, there are significantly cheaper alternatives that are weaker but can still keep up with gaming PCs in terms of performance.
So if u need like just a gaming pc to handle latest games i wouldnt recommend it, cause u can get powerful laptop and a powerful destop for $4000.
Its only a thing if u really need the most powerful laptop and u dont care price-performance ratio 'cause u can afford it.
Love the enthusiasm. +1

You lost me at 1080P. This is a PERFECT device for 1440P.
Even 4k but they couldn't have kept the 360hz screen
QHD 240Hz and UHD 120Hz are offered as well, in both higher brightness and better colors. FHD is for the base model.
I wouldn't pick anything less than 4k with such caliber of hardware.
@@blue4059 And let me guess, the 4K 120Hz model costs $4000, right?

Man, you can feel how excited this boi really is.
I want to get this for the RGB light bar. Oh, the performance is pretty good, too.
These are cool but I already have a 3080 laptop from last year and a 3080FE which I finally landed for retail price for my desktop. Even though I'm pretty set for now it's nice to see how quickly things move in the tech space.
As they say, Every new tech that comes out today is already outdated the second that it launches. It is just better to buy things you'll know will last you a long time based on what you need it for, not what trending now.
@@GothicDragonX I agree. I'm coming from a daily driver laptop powered by a 4gb 960M and 8gb of ram just a few years ago to now having a laptop and a desktop with a 3080 so I'm set for a while before actually needing to upgrade. It's so easy to try to upgrade to the latest and greatest but as long as what you have does what you need, you can be at ease.
I think these newer laptops are making it a little easier for people who wanna PC game without having to buy a crazy expensive prebuilt or paying way too much for a graphics card. Love seeing it.
Thanks Dave!
I'll stick with my i5 9300h for a few years until the price goes down. New stuff with extreme performance ALWAYS cost extra.

Nice review, perfect balance of graphs and B-rolls. But what I really want to see is what the other side of this room looks like :P ;)
When Dave uploads and says it's good, you know it's good 🔥
I used to have an MSI Laptop. It was great specs at a good price. Exactly what I wanted, but it never felt that greatly crafted, and I don't mean physically. It felt like a bunch of third party stuff that never integrated properly. Everytime windows updated half of it would stop working and you'd have to wait for new drivers to become available. Sometimes the subwoofer just wouldn't work. It just never felt like a complete package.
This omg. I went from an Asus G75 to an MSI thinking they were just competitors and all that would change would be the brand. Holy. fuck. Was I wrong. A massive downgrade in everything but the hardware itself. I shouldn't have skimped out $100 for a sale.
@@Wylie288 wow. I remember before I bought my last laptop, thinking MSI might be a good way to go as an "enthusiast brand". Ended up getting an XPS 15 instead. Sounds like I made a good choice 😅
I used to have a laptop with similar issue. Awesome specs but not translating into desired output
I am running a GT72 2PE Dominator Pro with the fancy Tobii eye trackers as my daily driver for the past 7 years with a 4th Gen i7 and a GTX 880M. Having an MSI laptop was a dream for me, but it’s not great. The build quality is skeptical, with everything held by screws with the worst being the area around the bezels with unreasonable gaps. The LCD, lots of backlight bleeding wasn’t great too and the GTX 880M decided to fry itself and with no compatible 880Ms to replace it with. Currently using it as a desktop rig with an external keyboard, due to previous water spills that ruined some of the SteelSeries keys with RGB still working!
You should start providing links to the wallpapers you use. They are really good.
Beautiful design just wished it had a larger touchpad
With AMD facing chip shortages, this year seems like a good opportunity for Intel
yep, Intel move fasts in dealing thing with TSMC, and Intel got the agreement. AMD is refining their APUs but they forget the business side : secure the stocks and production.
Everyone is having a chip shortage, and intel and other companies cant take advantage of it because companies buy waffers for chips far ahead of time so these chips were claimed before the shortage even happened. its an even playing feild, the only reason intel has performance right now is because there talented engineers optimized core counts. you cant really act fast on events like these because every company is reserving chips until 2026 right now and they dont want to over buy

Was waiting for the MSI GE series with a 16:10 display quite some time now. But they didn't change their GE chassis. This is the 3rd iteration of this specific chassis design. I feel this design looks cool and stupid at the same time. So waiting for them to change it at least next time so I can consider it for my next laptop.
It is a gaming laptop though

MSI is doing some really good work lately
Super happy to see Intel showing up this year. But I'm waiting for Zen 4 to see the competition. 🔥
Zen4 is likely to blow it out of the water again. Intel is barely competitive considering that they need 75W to secure a real win against the 5900HX. I'd like to see both chips compete at 45W to see where Intel really is.

@@zihechen3111 I have a Zen3 mobile chip and it flies like the wind. No idea what you are talking about. Sure it isn't as fast as Zen3 desktop but it is faster than Zen2 desktop and Zen2 mobile. It also has really great performance at only like 25W, I know because I play Heros of the Storm with it and it gets over 100FPS in that heavy single threaded game with only 25W power. Even in games like COD It only gets like 28W power on my Alienware laptop (due to my custom thermal limitations) and it flies.

Glad to see Intel making a comeback. Makes me exited to see Dell put these bad boys in their newer XPS laptops. If they do, it would make them more competitive against Apple's Macbooks!
Dell has to first fix their quality control issues. I don't understand how such premium products can ship with wobbly track pads
Ya i am planning to buy xps17. I want gaming performance and fix that touchpad issue.
The xps are way too thin to outpeform the MacBooks, even with the new intel chips. If they wanted these numbers, they would overheat!
Dell can fit in lowly end i3s and i5s and still won't be able to cool the xps properly 🤣
I wish Dell to develop a product that looks elegant while being perfectly capable of gaming loads over extended periods of time. The market demand is there, as most people woulkd want a single device using which they can do both, work and play. Like a hybrid between theri XPS and Alienware devices. I would buy it immediately.
That icecube shot was *chefs kiss*

Congratulations on intel come back!! I’m looking forward purchasing the new MSI gaming laptop.
If 105W power draw for the CPU in a mobile device is a "come back" I'm not sure what isn't a "come back". This chip draws way too much power, even on 75W it is far behind of the competition in terms of power draw.

Man what a beast. Also hey nice laptop
@Dave2D have you seen major differences between laptops with a MUX switch and those without one? Does this particular system have a MUX switch? The ASUS ROG 2022 lineup has that particular feature and I'm trying to understand the benefit of having one.
Check out the video done by Jarrod on the topic. Extremely enlightening on how the MUX switch hampers performance for gaming laptops.
I'd like to see how dell's XPS lineup fares this year. 9700 and 9710 can cool 70W on the CPU stock, and if Dell lets Intel rip, we're looking at 40% performance inprovement. That's insane.
If they had just put AMD in they were looking at 100% performance improvement with much better battery life. Instead the XPS lineup will continue to be a solid "meh" with atrocious thermals, loud fans and shit battery life.
RETURN OF THE PRODIGAL SON.
Thank AMD tho, their competition broke the stagnation at Intel. And damn did they break all expectations.
This multi core boost won't transform to gaming performance uplift as much. They uses only 6 big cores instead 8, like in desktop.
I bought last year's GE76 cuz of your review (and the semiconductor shortage meant it was the only premium laptop realistically available to me!). Despite costing the price of a small car for all the bells n whistles, I love it. It's beautiful, it's weighty (why I think that's a good thing, I don't know), the 4K display doesn't disappoint, and it simply doesn't flinch for my needs. I especially agree with you on Balanced mode, it's so quiet for what it does.
I can't afford to upgrade this year, but I love that they (Intel, MSI, Nvidia) take my dollars and keep innovating, and these kinds of generational leaps make me really hopeful for the power of all kinds of mobile devices in the future.
Very impressive performance for a laptop indeed, just afraid how crazy expensive it will be. Nice showcase

No hate to MSI though im a big fan of their work, let's hope they don't overprice these products. All in all i think MSI and Intel have created a beast here!
Does it have a MUX switch? Thats becoming a must have feature.
I feel cleaner when I started being a fan of Dave
