3rd: 4K gaming on a thin laptop (Razer Blade 15 game testing)
6th: Gigabyte Aero 16 Review
I think both are interesting videos, I've been personally using the Aero series myself for years but with the new 16" model, I don't think I can recommend them anymore - more details in the video, but a combination of software issues, lack of ports and flimsy dongle.
The Razer Blade 15 game testing video has a bit of an interesting spin, rather than just doing the usual benchmarks at 1x resolution we did 1080p, 1440p and 4K at all setting presets to find out if a thin machine can actually run 4K games. It came with a 4K 144Hz screen, so I wanted to find out if there's any point in getting that.
Otherwise this week my partner is starting up on the MSI Creator Z17 laptop and then finishing with a laptop that's under embargo and passing it to me later today.
I'm also starting on the i7 vs i9 comparison today, setting up both laptops right now (Windows update/drivers/BIOS/EC etc). Planning on using the XMG Neo 15 as they were able to lend me the same chassis + 3080 Ti with 12700H and 12900H to find out the differences.
I think the Razer Blade 14 with Ryzen 9 6900HX is also in the mail, should arrive here this Thursday, so still plenty going on!
