The 5900HX is just a better binned 5800H (Jarrod's Tech has a good review to show this). The better binned part will be more efficient and will need less power to do the same task. This would actually translate to it being cooler in most workloads than the 5800H. It sounds counter intuitive that...

Hi Guys, received my order and decided to add another one for the mix. This is the 15" recoil with 5900HX mobile and 3080 Laptop. Really impressed with the results, PCS have knocked it out of the park with this one. I've got a stock result and an OC result for the list. OC'ing with +175MHz...

Ah, it seems you may have fallen into NVIDIA's trap! It's worth doing some google research about laptop GPU's and MAX-Q vs MAX-P if you've not heard about this before. The short version, is that a MAX-Q GPU is not as powerful as a normal (MAX-P) one. The physical components are the same, but a...

I'd agree with Spyder that it's worth looking at the GPU if you're looking to upgrade the budget a little. It's generally agreed that CPU performance is ahead of GPU performance currently. This means that in a few years it's likely that your GPU will be the 'weakest link' - and as noted, the GPU...

Something like the Elimina sounds like it would suit your requirements nicely. A true desktop replacement - with desktop grade processor - is usually outside of this price point. Given your previous machine is older, I imagine a newer laptop would seem like a rocket ship regardless - so I...

I was asking the PCS Discord channel about this for my order, just yesterday evening actually. What we came down on in the end was that it would be likely best to have a smaller, 500GB, drive for OS and then a second larger drive for all other files. This way you can reinstall windows...

New benchmark values with this update to power levels? Be interested to see how the firestrike score for this stacks up to the previous runs you've submitted!

Hi mate, you're quite right that they're both similar machines. Both should have DP over USB-C having done the research into these models as well. While the recoil is a bit bigger, it's only a disadvantage if portability is the concern - the bigger size is likely to translate into more thermal...

The recoil is a desktop replacement laptop that's using the 11th gen Desktop CPU. Ionico uses the mobile laptop CPU's which have yet to be released in 8 core guise. These CPU's are due to become available within Q2 of this year according to Intel. I'm in the same boat as yourself in wanting...
