      I see that everywhere. Yes. Lisa is a god for AMD and I'm glad she took over. Baby steps were needed at the beginning but whenever someone takes over, results are then seen over course of the years ahead and in that specific moment you can only do so much like when 480 RX cards came out and Ryzen 1000 series. If we only see how much has changed and been planned over past few years for today is crazy. I also believe many things were worked on before Lisa came, but she improved everything, even marketing side of the business.

      In my humble opinion, just save up for a desktop if you want to game or just buy a more practical laptop for productivity + portability. I get that the idea of a gaming laptop is to have enough power to run the best PC games with the portability of a laptop. However, in most cases, it's too heavy to bring around. Also, since it has too much power for a supposedly portable unit, it tends to heat up quite easily in response to running those AAA games that are installed. Which in the long run, causes damage to the battery. My friend has one and he can't really have it unplugged for more than 5 mins or else, it'll hibernate.
      So in the end, it's just like buying yourself a more expensive but less capable desktop. I get what it wants to achieve but that "portability" is gonna go away in like half a year. The longer you own it, it starts turning itself into an underpowered and uncustomizable desktop computer.
      TL;DR: Owning a gaming laptop is like owning a unit that is less powerful PC and a laptop that is not so portable. In theory, it's supposed to be the best of both worlds but actually, it's like having the worst of both.

      His review unit - R9-5900HX, 115W RTX 3080M, and dual-4K Display - is already *$3,700 USD.* $2,200 is the base 6GB 3060M model, which is waaay too expensive for the amount of VRAM you get, and since you can get a same 115W 3060M GPU laptop from other brands for around $1,200.
      Outside of US, the local pricing of the Duo 3080M will be closer to $5k USD. Hence importing directly from the US into your own respective countries will be cheaper, including shipping + taxes. $2,900 FHD, 3070M is the 'sweet spot', but that's almost 2x the $$$ of a cheapest last-gen RTX 2080 laptop, or a new 120W 3070M laptop that is almost half as affordable at $1,600.
      So if you're interested in any of these new Ryzen based laptops, my advice is to wait for Lenovo and ODMs (TongFang, Clevo) to get the 2nd batch of AMD supply in Q2. Compared to the Asus lineup, Lenovo has - on average higher-watt GPUs, better displays (color and brightness-wise), HDMI 2.1, better expandability (2 SODIMM and 2 NVMe slots), Advanced Optimus / MUX switch across all lineup, and far more reasonable price/performance ratio.

Was about about to throw that adapter box in the bin, thanks to watching this video I didn't. Thanks, it works brilliantly as a stand. I can now see both screens at the same time perfectly without cranking my head!

    Such a seemingly high-quality piece of technology. I have the Zenfone 6 from Asus and I can tell you it's a lot of tech for the price. I can see why they opted for a side trackpad due to the extra screen. Not sure if I'd just go for a full touchscreen laptop, but seems like a decent amount of space for notes. And it might help with compartmentalizing multiple active windows. Hopefully, stores have these so I can feel out the differences because this is quite different.

It is completely silent in idle and even in silent mode while gaming , where noise never reach over 30 db and game never drop bellow 60 fps. Also it has much more better thermal performance. where cpu and gpu is much cooler cos of that improve design which lead to higher gpu clock speed and keyboard area with touch pad is no where near hot to touch under load like these other two and in turbo mode cpu can reach even 66 C and gpu 68 while gaming wiitcher 3 which is incredible.

    Hey Dave, In general, I’d agree this is the highest performance CPU/GPU combo available at the moment, but in pure gaming performance the GE76 and Alienware M17 R4 both have 3080 150W TDP, a large difference in TDP. In addition, both of those laptops have a Gysnc/MUX switch option which will boost cpu bound game performance in esports titles dramatically. But those laptops also have intel chips, so only great for pure gamers and not people who need multi rendering performance. Looking forward to your next video! Cheers! -Brandon

      To compare with another laptop with higher wattage of GPU. For example the Alienware M17 R4 has a charger of 330W which is even bigger compared to ASUS's 280W. Speaking of battery life, the M17 R4 got only 2-2.5 hours. On the other hand, the zephyrus duo 15 se has 4-5 hours, thermal throttle won't be happening while gaming and very low fan noise due to the design. It can be used as a daily normal laptop! The performance compromise between 130W and 150W is totally worth for the functionality and productivity it got.
