Q: QuestionWhy does the listing claim this laptop has an AMD Radeon 890M GPU when in fact it has an AMD Radeon 880M?

Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer It must be a mistake. First of all, in the detailed specs plus in the side by side comparison it explicitly claims it’s the 10-core AI 365 model. Then too they shorted the memory to 24 GB just like they did on the entry-level Vivobook S 16 model that also has the 365. Both are a hard no to me - more on the 24 GB than the 365 factor (these days Windows is heading to 8 GB of overhead crap, then you want 8 GB of shared iGPU memory, so if you start with 24 that leaves you with only 8 GB of usable program memory). Why should I pay well over $1000 for a 2024 computer with a rather nice 2024 CPU but an unupgradeable 2020 style memory. I recommend the Best Buy execs who thought 24 GB was a good idea, be given a permanent vacation. I do praise Best Buy however for opening up a new 2nd Vivobook S16 option both with 32 GB and the HX 370 CPU. Although pricier, it does bundle the pen - so only option of Vivobook I personally would be interested in at this point. And to the person who said this 14” model might have an HX 375 - that would be a brand new not yet existing (til now I suppose) CPU - so I highly doubt they put the (now) beefiest CPU on an entry level Vivobook that they hobbled with 24 GB RAM.

Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer In another question (mine), Asus said they will not offer HX 370 32G. in the USA, even though they sell it in e. G. Germany (with a much worse screen). So THIS ASUS ANSWER IS WRONG.
