  • The MSI Claw First Look after 3 days of use with many many hours and no sleep. It seems like there is so much potential here but will MSI be able to fix the issues?

    They dropped the ball with this primarily from a price point perspective. I suspect this will be on sale relatively quickly . Will be interesting to see what launches towards the end of the year from other competitors.

    Excellent first look, appreciate the optimism and few positives you gave the device, everyone else seems to hate the device (which I understand) so its nice to see someone not be so angry at it. I was wondering also, what performance monitor are you using?

      Theres a lot to like about this device bit unfortunately a lot to dislike as well. It is a messy launch its its unknown what MSI’s plan is for optimizing this thing. Im in it for the whole journey either way. Will have a lot more videos coming including comparisons to the other handhelds. My overlay is msi afterburner. I switch between that and the built in claw overlay

      It's gonna be a long journey. I honestly don't think it will ever be better than it's AMD counterparts. Intel is always a few steps behind with drivers. Plus game devs don't usually optimize with Intel in mind. But I guess time will tell 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Is Resizable Bar on in the BIOS? Intel ARC cannot work correctly if that option isn't on (at least it's like that for the desktop GPUs.). You get stutters and frame rate is all over the place without it. Also, DirectX 11 and earlier games don't run well, regardless (though Intel has improved performance in older titles after launch.)

    Clearly we have severe driver issue hence the staggered release they wanna iron stuff out before doing a mass launch in raw power this should be beating the legion go by 10 to 20 percent watt for watt but we’re not which means driver issues

      If your looking for a windows handheld I recommend the z1 extreme version of the ROG Ally or the Legion Go. Both are very solod right now. Ally is the lighter smaller of rhe two and Armory Crate has gotten very good

      Im getting full plugged in performance with my 65watt Ally dock charger and also my legion go charger. Its when you use a dock it changes. You need a 100w dock and charger for it to work. Cant plug a 65w charger into a dock and get full power. And i have seen some reviews out there making that mistake.

    I dont think many of its problems will be fixed even by software. Never heard of an Intel chip thats efficient in power and performance, usually the motto of Intel is more wattage more processing power cuz efficiency are for the weak. Efficiency are trash in the face of pure raw power, kind of mindset. 😂
