GPD Win Max gaming laptop busts crowdfunding goal on day 1

[edmundhonda]

There was a review on a last gen Ryzen laptop and they put it up against the Intel chips. It shows even latest gen Ryzen mobile chips can't offer the same battery life as Intel can.

The GPD is ~80 minutes in full gaming power mode, if the batteries run to their spec. The intel igpu is extremely juicy under load, although I'm not sure Vega at 7nm is that great either

It's possible, given the form factor, that battery life was critical.

I'm not sure this is a high profile, high numbers machine which is worthy of a bribe.

You do know those things aren't the same, right?

If they were the same, there would be no point in making comparisons between them.

They are the different propositions and product tiers presented by two different companies and there is a pattern, which I pointed out.

Feel free to present a counter argument or point out that they are indeed different and the competing parts suited to this form factor may well perform similarly, but the moment you decide to be a prat about it or start getting obnoxious, I'm done bothering.

Thanks.

Ttaskmistress is not stupid and can actually bake very well, already gets amazing dinners that she cannot hope to replicate, and makes it very clear what stuff she does want. No excuses.

Damn. Done before even getting to "profit".

I tried to bake once. I ended up plastering the wall with chocolate, egg, flour... stuff by turning on the electric mixer before putting the whisk thing in the bowl.

My argument is that it should have had an interlock.

Her argument is that baking should be performed sober and by someone competent.

I have never been asked to bake again. I see this as a victory.

Current gen ryzen has better battery life than intel. Last gen ryzen had worse, but is not relevant when discussing current gen.

I will need to find the link i shared from one of the last threads on this. They moved away from Ryzen embedded because apparently working with the AMD embedded division was a massive PITA. But, maybe we'll have another option in the future that isn't just enough to keep things ticking over.

Anyone doing custom things in AMD was probably keeping Microsoft and Sony happy for the next gen consoles! If Intel have the capacity to support the small players like this making niche products then fair play (and maybe a discount helped )
