Bigger problem than any that has been mentioned is that there is now 45 series that is desktop cpus on laptops. So I really hope they will stick to HX being just for that category or it will be a mess. :p

You could have an 8520U get clapped by a 7540U for example, because even though the former is newer, the latter is Zen 4 to its Zen 2.

Absolutely completely irrelevant!

Show me a laptop line with these both in them. They are for completely different type of products.

You buy laptops, not laptop cpus. If you are looking for something to game on, you will not even see laptops with mendocino on them.

They had to change the system as they now have multiple different types of cpus instead of one they had different numbers of cores for.

No, you said first number was always last generation. That was pure ignorance and now you are moving goalposts and trying to win by arguing something else.

New names have both the release year and generation in them. You see it in a glance. You see 9840 is zen 4, so you do not accidentally buy it f you only want zen 5.

The two last numbers tell you the product segment, and the second number is how high it is in that segment. Just learn the system.

No it has not.

It was amazing when zen3 mobile came out and they had even second numbers be zen3 and odd zen3 numbers be zen2. :D Except 9 was ofc zen3.

5800, 5600 and 5400 zen3

5700, 5500 and 5300 zen2

That was soo much better, right?

How is that relevant? A refresh of a 8750 would be 9750 as it’s the year that changes.

It’s not my fault you don’t know how the new naming system works yet. Someone who didn’t know how the old naming system works would also have to consult something.

Uhh, no?

They csn refresh them next year, so no problem

Why give away all that dev time and effort and not gain any benefit from it?

Why not, though? Sunk costs and all that. World gets more open code, which is not a bad thing. They don’t really lose much and they would gain goodwill, even if they said they are not going to maintain it.

Sell it and buy it

They literaly dropped the prices ornf the earlier stuff, which is obviously a price drop.

Dbrand?

The title says best gaming experience. However short it is, it is better with a big screen.

Yes, battery and other stuff affects the overall device good/bad rating. Which is literally why I said I would not pick this. I don’t think it is the best. But I’d bet the gaming experience here is the best of any of these handhelds.

You don’t buy a laptop when you want a smartwatch. People buying this probably already have a computer and want to game away from it.

Efficiency doesn’t really make gaming experience. Unless stuff gets hot and loud maybe.

Didn’t this have a huge screen? That would easily do it.

But I would not consider a windows console. And I’d want the touchpads too. And I would also prefer to support Volvo for what they do for Linux.

Have you checked the official refurbished ones? They are 20% off always and they lowered the prices too, so they are cheap. And tested to be working fine.

Gaming is just fine as long as you don’t need some specific games.
