Why does ASUS hate GPUs?
They got rid of anything above a 4070 in the 2024 models of the G series.
And this is a dual 120Hz OLED screen device powered by an Intel ARC integrated GPU?!
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoHave you seen the thickness and power bugdet of this laptop? How do you expect a 4070 to work inside that? It's for productivity, not for gaming, and for that the latest Intel iGPUs are more than enough.
- blagie 3y agoNot for me! I started buying beefy GPUs when LLMs became a thing.
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoYou are not the targe demographic for such a laptop. There are other gaming machies with GPUs for your use case. Just add a portable USB-C display to them if that's what you were missing.
- blagie 3y agoIt's hard for me to say who the target demographic is, but I can say this is exactly the sort of device I'd want to buy, just in a slightly beefier version (4k displays). I might even give up the GPU for that. But I'd rather have a proper GPU. [1] Proper GPU: At least 16GB VRAM. Good compatibility. Don't care too much about speed.
- jwells89 3y agoTop end GPUs are too hot and power hungry to be practical for anything more portable than 3 inch thick “luggables”, which these days is a pretty niche category. Nvidia is gonna have to do better in the efficiency department.
- Dalewyn 3y agoNvidia's plenty efficient, it's just you still need monstrous power (and thus monstrous heat) to drive 4K 120fps with raytracing and CUDA and whatever other nonsense.
