lol,

my AMD laptop is basically more powerful then my office workstation and has decent battery life and thermal performance then the average intel mobile performance chips.

if intel was so stable why the had to fire their last CEO and the hire a new one who will also admit intels failure to compete even with a lifestyle company.

no one care about loyalty here. we just want the best for our money.

you just simping for intel while we look for progress.

If want safe go Intel. If you don't mind experimenting can try amd. 5000 mobile and 4000 mobile difference is 10% so don't need to wait. The one that need to wait is 3060 which is up to 40% more than 2060.

isnt this making you limited to intel's offering?

msi's prestige 14 evo looks pretty well for the 5k budget

Easily AMD.

Intel still stuck in their donkey ages of 14nm and quad cores (for i5, as im benching it according to price, if you want to compare i7 with ryzen7 then it’s 6 vs 8).

For same budget (actually still cheaper), you can get Ryzen7 4800H, which have double the cores/threads while likely still consuming less powers (TSMC 7nm is fantastic here).

I5 cost more than R7

I7 cost even more than that, yet still less cores than R7. The previous saving grace of Intel having better single thread performance also will soon change after 5th gen Ryzen reach the market.

Ryzen 5th gen can even obsolete Intel’s desktop chips

Ideapad Gaming 3.

Sadly the “FRONTLINER” discount code no longer working, no more such dirt cheap price.

Thanks boss. There's always another time. Good for waiting new AMD gen3 too.

Can’t deny that

But in “value for money” aspects, the value is really really hard to beat in foreseeable future (Ryzen5/7 and GTX1650 laptop for under RM2.5k? Asus/Acer likely have a shock reading about that too laugh.gif)

Zen3 have substantial improvement in single core performance. Though I expect newer gen likely means higher price too, as TSMC is overloaded with chip orders and had increased its price to maintain the demand and profit. Thus AMD likely will have to increase their price too.

Back then when I bought my 3rd gen Ryzen5 lappy, AMD didn’t break through the mobile computer market yet and their Ryzen5/7 laptops go as cheap as sub RM1.5k-2k as compared to Intel i3 or i5 which easily start above RM2k. With 4th gen Ryzen turned the tide against Intel, Ryzen devices no longer start at under RM2k (though still far more competitive as compared to Intel).
