Figured i would write a review since noone else has, the TLDR is its a beast, could be used as a mobile workstation, and roughly competes with my actualy gaming desktop at home. The price is steep, but the performace is amazing too, especially for a laptop. The laptop itself is pretty awesome. The screen is amazing, can barely tell a difference between it and my oled, it has all the specs for the hardware, it almost never gets hot except when loading shaders and it games like a straight up beast. Spec wise it has 64gb of ram, 2tb of ssd, 24 core and thread cpu, 24gb of vram with the laptop 5090, which is about as powerful as a 3090 desktop. Thats a pretty amazing package tucked into this laptop. The temps are amazing in my opinion, during shader loading it can get as hot as about 92c on the cpu from what ive seen. But during gaming my temps seems to max out around 85c, and usually stay between 80-82c and I even like it warm in my room. So its doing a pretty good job if you ask me. The gpu never really goes over 75c so I dont think you need to worry much about temps with this machine. Still with something like this a cooling pad is strongly recommended. I personally only really game. So I cant speak on the productivity side of things. But as a gaming machine, its a total beast. I dont go around benchmarking everything I own. But I spent a good part of a day getting a few stats to give people an idea of what kind of fps this beast pushes. All of the stats will be will dlss and frame gen on, settings set to high, and the resoltion set to the laptop default of 3840x2400 (16:10 aspect ratio)unless stated otherwise with the few outliers at the end. Bf6: 110-140 FPS Oblivion remastered: 120-140 outside, 150-170 inside caves and buildings Mafia the old country: 70-110, menu was buggin with 40-50? Ready or not:250+, 140-170 native Spacemarine2:100-130 2x FG Helldivers2:70-80 Borderlands4:70-110 2x FG Hogwarts legacy:100-120 2x FG Some games have multi fram gen with the rtx 50 series. Again i didnt get every game or test everything but here is some stats for 3x and 4x frame gen. 3x FG games: Hogwarts:130-140 Fps Borderlands4:120-150 Spacemarine2:140-170 4x frame gen: Hogwarts:150-170 Fps Spacemarine2:180-200 Borderlands4:160-190 Some of my outliers would be escape from tarkov, squad, hell let loose(not vietnam), and forza horizon 6 Fh6 is an outlier because it was actually in extreme settings for the graphics. But the fps went as follows for rhe benchmark. 2x FG 107 fps/ 3x FG 145/ 4x FG 176 fps averages. The other 3 are all very map specifc when it comes to fps, so take them each with a grain of salt, to be fair. For escape from tarkov I picked the map streets of tarkov, because its notoriously the worst for optimization and fps, however I still averaged 65-85 fps walking around and about 50-55 in the scope fighting. This is with streets low resolution texture mode on. Definitely not the best showing. But playable. If it can pmay this, the rest of the game should be playable too. For hell let loose and squad i had to just pick a random server and map. They are a little harder to find a match. Hell let loose i played on foy and was getting 110-145, with LIGHT stutters. This was the first time loading this game up compared to all the rest. So the shaders may have been still loading up. Im not sure. For squad, i played on al basrah i think is how its spelled. And this game actually has up to 6x frame generation. And it seemed to work from what i could tell. With dlss on i was getting around 100-120fps. With 6x FG it was producing between 480-580 fps which is actually crazy. In almost every single one of these scenarios, the latency given by the software monitor, was over 50. Meaning its only faking the image, with extra frames. You still FEEL whatever frame, THE SYSTEM can actually generate. With that being said, i also couldnt hardly tell a difference with the latency myself. So to be fair, it does seem to work well.

I’m playing around with local AI. I had an intensive processing task that on my old Raider GE75 maxed out took 24-36 hours. This beast took it down to 4-6 hours and I could even play Warhammer 40000 Rogue Trader while doing so without any noticeable impact. The frame rate and display are top notch. The hard drive, lightning fast. I just wish the power cord from the brick to the machine were longer.
