AMD launches Ryzen Mobile 7 2700U & 5 2500U with Vega Graphics

Need to see what the Ideapad and Swift bring to market. 2700U has to be better. Looking more at the Swift with the dual channel memory.
 
Wasn't me. No need to. Just memory access and NVMe drive access. Changing that is what boosts performance. And it is one chip. Future variants for socket may be with HBM2 on package.
 

Now she can fight giant enemy crabs...

I just wish another model came out with a better quality IPS screen. That kind of kills it for me. Also, I can't stand non-matte finished screens, especially for laptops. They become almost unusable in situations where you have direct light.

I just want to see a 2700u release for the $500-$600 price point without sacrificing essential features that can't be upgraded later down the road.

I'm with you, 2700u with a decent screen at $600 and I'll be in.
 
Gah, that's going to be the challenge, isn't it?

We're not going to get a straight Ryzen APU in an XPS13 with the same bells and whistles, for example, are we...

[and I don't see how it'd be a detriment for Dell, as the system would still be 'fast enough' for productivity while being faster for gaming, one would hope, assuming the AMD part behaves when shoehorned into such a tight package]
 
The 2700U sounds like a perfect replacement for my ancient laptop I take with me when I am traveling. Would love to see a review on that chip to see how it stacks up.

Yeah, the 2700U have got my interest too. Waiting for some good options becoming available.
 
I'm not to sure if it is going to matter that much between the 2700U and 2500U because in real workloads there still balanced by the same amount of Watt?

The 2700U could- potentially- be better binned, thus run cooler/leaner at higher sustained clockspeeds.

PR and reality collide again.

So FULL of ...

From the same article.

Although this is a staggering difference, I emphasize that it's not representative of performance in the real world. If we don't remove the display from the picture, the Optimus-equipped Swift 3 only posted nine and a half hours of run time in our i5-8250U review, or only about half again as long as the Envy's six hours and 12 minutes.

Not shocked that you take only a small portion, rather a single point and post it without context.

ALL Posters that do this should be perma banned.

It is Shintai or some other persons which go by posting pictures without the necessary background information they do it all the time, when it suits them they use sourca A then declare it is the one to go by then when source A posts material which does not suit them they go by source B and claim source A can't be trusted it is such a boring process , at least Shintai posted a link to check out the article the others don't even do that .....

Why do you take exception to the display being isolated? Are we trying to compare CPUs, or LCD panels?

It is without reference isn't it ? just post something that makes the product look bad on something trivial. When is the last time you purchased a laptop based on an external monitor performance?

Because he doesn't like the result when the base systems are compared and why he wants information banned ;)

If anyone wondered why AMD pretty much got no RR designs, this is it.

And then we dont have to mention how the Intel got a smaller and worn battery.

Your reading skills took a quick dive he said you as poster should be banned he does not care about the information source if it is not put into any context. But then again that is asking to much of you anyway :)

They eliminated LCD power usage from their test. That's a good thing. They're not reviewing the laptop, they're reviewing the CPU!

Can or did you read the quote? Did you not see shintai post comment above the graph? Context is king.

Are you going to ignore the context of the review, and why they tested with an external monitor? Why the deflections here?

Should we start using different monitors for desktop CPU tests and then include the power usage of the monitor in the results?

Did you see me say anything like that? Did I contest the graph as a lie? NO!!!

I contested this ignorant asinine comment below:

And maybe since you seem to be so intuitive at the moment, answer my questions directly rather than obfuscate my points.

Why dont you relate to the fact both platforms are supposed to be equal in power usage when PR slides are to be believed. Yet here we are, a plain massacre as usual. One is power efficient, the other is anything but that.

I get you dont like the news, but it is what it is.

I have no problem with the news. Your typical drive-by trolling comment with it is the problem. And how about the quote I posted from the very same article just below your graph? ... Yeah I know you don't like it because it does not prop up your delusional interest.
