how are you feeling about the launch?
I think it’s been rushed and I totally blame MS.
how are you feeling about the launch?Bigger battery and lower res screen.
Tiny bit.Bigger battery
Depends on his SKU.and lower res screen.
I watched the Dave2D video, he danced around the software until the end, when he mentioned the Copilot+PC experience is not ready and not available.I think it’s been rushed and I totally blame MS.
somebody please run unpatched New Vegas on sex elite, I wanna get crashes per second metrics.The death of x86 has been greatly exaggerated.
GEMM blobs aren't useful for much per se.for AI hardware they'll barely get to use in the near future.
Indeed. But it remains to be seen how x86 market share will evolve in the coming years. I'm not sure WoA will change the market, at least not immediately, and perhaps never. But the change in the hyperscaler datacenters has started.The death of x86 has been greatly exaggerated.
Oh no, retaliation is in order.But the change in the hyperscaler datacenters has started.
When the M1 launched in 2020 you had clear reasons to buy it over Intel and AMD. The performance, efficiency and battery life were all there and the competition didn’t compare. It was crazy fast for a thin notebook that was fanless and you got the 16GB RAM config it would still be usable for years.Ok, but where's the jaw-dropping experience? It was hyped to the moon, where's the awe?
Why should I buy X Elite over the upcoming Strix Point for example? I'm not kidding, I'm actually looking at these products as a prospective buyer.
Qualcomm and Google have zero incentive to do so. Valve would need to work with Qualcomm.Meanwhile people want to run PC games on Snapdragon mobile chips...
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra runs Fallout 4 and many other PC games with more than playable frame rates
ETA Prime has shown off the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra running a couple of PC games, which includes Fallout 4. The YouTuber used a modified version of an emulator called Winlator and hooked the phone to a monitor using DeX to get a PC-like gaming experience. It appears that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3...www.notebookcheck.net
Dude's cooking a hit piece already;Starting to think Charlie was on to someshing
Gaming is just a no-go on this thing, you'll either crash or stutter.Even assuming some sort of emulation hit, this goes to show that a mobile GPU clocked to hell and back falls apart when running an 8 year old DX12 benchmark.

Can’t believe I’m saying this but more games run on an ARM Mac than this an X Elite laptop. Like Rift Apart, some of the latest Assassin Creed games etcGaming is just a no-go on this thing, you'll either crash or stutter.
Or both.
Kuo is expecting 2 million sold to be sold.Looks like there's a golden opportunity for some indie devs to write some native WARM games, assuming these X Elite systems sell in non-zero quantity.
Well Apple put some effort (cash upfront) for ISVs to deposit stuff on Mac.Can’t believe I’m saying this but more games run on an ARM Mac than this an X Elite laptop. Like Rift Apart, some of the latest Assassin Creed games etc
Out of ~265m units PC TAM?Kuo is expecting 2 million sold to be sold.
NVIDIA has the cash to get ARM ports going next year at least.Well Apple put some effort (cash upfront) for ISVs to deposit stuff on Mac.
Qualcomm would have to e-beg gabeN for adding aa64 distribution to Steam which, good luck lol.

hilarious
Nvidia will be the wild cardNVIDIA has the cash to get ARM ports going next year at least.
They can try but all you'll get is aa64 Cyberpunk 2077 and maybe something else from their pet studios (Metro Exodus?).NVIDIA has the cash to get ARM ports going next year at least.
Yes, time for another x86 killer.Nvidia will be the wild card
Frankly I don't think ARM is the problem with the gaming results here. Even if the games are emulated, only performance should be impacted. Games outright crashing or experiencing severe stuttering like I've seen from some reviews sounds more like driver issues.NVIDIA has the cash to get ARM ports going next year at least.
It is nice but nowhere near WAOUW.-10% performance hit in emulation.
Most x86 apps work fine in emulation.
Silent, nearly no fan noise.
Battery is great.
Price and value is great.
Don't forget Remedy or gullible indies.They can try but all you'll get is aa64 Cyberpunk 2077 and maybe something else from their pet studios (Metro Exodus?).
