This freaking grinds my gears. I’d rather have a 6c/12t CPU with a 7700M XT.

They refused to help you under warranty? o.0

You might be better served by mounting a mini-PC on the back of a monitor. Daniel Owen on youtube has done a few reviews on them. You’d probably have fewer headaches from a serviceability standpoint.

The “iGame G-One Plus” is marketed to artists/designers?

I think it’s probably a case of marketing thinking it’ll sell better if they slap “4K” on the box instead of making optimal use of the hardware. Gotta love those marketing boys.

How does something like this (which is mostly brilliant) go through dozens of stages of approval and end up with a 4K 60Hz fixed refresh rate screen?

1440p 144Hz/165Hz VRR would have hit the nail on the head.

G-ONEPlus: R9 6900HX, RX 6850M XT, 32GB DDR5, 1TB SSD: 6699/5999 RMB

That SKU is $850-$950 USD. That’s a pretty competitive price for someone looking for an all-in-one. Just a damn shame about the screen, really lets the build down.

Ah the 9700 Pro…

I’ll always remember it because I could only afford the 9600 Pro lol.

Not that i cared. I freaking loved that PC.

Do you mean that this overcharge happens when both the framerate and the refresh rate are low on OLED? Because I would imagine that even with a low framerate, say 10 FPS on a 60Hz screen, the pixels are still being… well… refreshed.

As I understand it, Low Framerate Compensation would prevent the situation you are describing above by using multiples of the FPS to fall within a refresh rate window. i.e. At 10 FPS the image would be refreshed to match 30Hz, at 27 FPS 54Hz, at 45 FPS 90Hz etc. etc.

And on a fixed refresh rate OLED monitor, say 60Hz, the pixels are still being refreshed no matter the framerate.

I’m not saying I’m right, this is just as I understood it. Can you please point me in the direction of where I could find out more about your explanation? Doesn’t have to be a link, just the name of the site / creator will do and then I’ll look it up.

Has anyone found out if the new OLED model will support VRR? (Variable Refresh Rate)

VRR with LFC should be possible on this 90Hz display, and I can’t think of a place where VRR would be more beneficial than on Deck because sticking to your framecaps is more difficult when your performance is limited and variable.

I’m not talking about the ability to switch refresh rates manually.

It’s a really meager list isn’t it? Especially in the context of the entire gaming laptop market. Advantage Editions represent what? A tenth of one percent of this year’s SKUs?

I’ve been whipping this horse for so long I don’t blame anyone who’s given up waiting.

I’d also much prefer that AMD worked more closely with Lenovo than with Dell or Asus.

Yeah, that’s another problem to sort out. Not nearly enough supply to meet demand.

Thanks for the correction. I really hope Lenovo see the sense in the refresh.

Pop next year’s Strix Point into this thing and it’ll sell like hotcakes. And as far as I understand it Strix Point is design compatible with this gen, so no need to develop a new SKU.
