“What are the key differences between Model:FA617NS-A16.R77600 and Model:FA617NT-A16.R77700? Aside from the upgraded GPU, are there any other upgrades or changes made to this newer model? Does the R77700 model have more heat pipes to help with cooling?”

The one additional heatpipe on the CPU side is only available with the Ryzen 9 7940HS model. This one doesn't have it. This model does have FRL on the HDMI and USB4 on the USB port connected to the iGPU, which the old batches of the 7735HS + 7600S model doesn't have (due to pin space limitations, Thunderbolt 3/4 and USB4 ports for both Intel and AMD integrated chipsets can only be connected to the iGPU, so the direct-to-dGPU USB port has to stay 3.2 to provide direct-to-dGPU extra performance). However, the new batch of 7735HS + 7600S models has FRL and USB4 also, so in the case of the new batch, there is no difference beside the dGPU.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm not certain, but I think it's safe to guess that the cooling has been upgraded.. the 7700s appears to be the only difference spec-wise.
