Even then you wouldn't though. AMD says the Max+ 395 can sustain 120W and boost upto 140W. That's not really much less than most 5060s do paired with a Ryzen 7 or Ultra 7. I have an Omen Transcend 14 with a Meteor Lake Ultra 7 and a 4060. The total power budget for them is ~85W because the laptop is

The only reason I don't have a 14" M4 Pro is that I got a stunning deal on my Omen Transcend 14. Same price as an M4 MacBook Air actually. But the trade-off of battery life was worth it to me for the OLED screen and being able to run Assetto Corsa and iRacing on it. The 14" Mx Pros are the absolute

VR and laptop in the same sentence in most cases should be a crime. only if your not deliberate like me, but since i bought mine half a year before getting my quest 3 i made that shit work as PCVR was not worth missing. price point is great for getting ur foot in the door. I got my ($1500) Omen Tran

TLDR; I’m in the middle of a similar situation and it’s a tough choice giving up MacOS, great Mac build quality, and superior battery life, in return for better gaming performance, Windows, and worse battery life. It is a difficult decision. Good luck OP. I’m in the same boat, I just want one device

This laptop is way overkill for what you want to play on it. Those games don't require much. As you know, that kind of power hungry hardware drains the battery much faster. You can get a much cheaper laptop with better battery life that will still play those games. I have an OMEN Transcend 14" OLED

For the budget range you listed there are quite a few laptops that fit. Coming in just under the Flow you have the following: G14 with 5070ti (open box for about $1600 at Best Buy) G14 5070 (check the spec on whatever you’re looking at some of them only have 16gb of RAM) Omen Transcend 14, 5060 and

Omen transcend 14 is around 2.1k on shopee rn and it's only 1.6kg since it's 14 inch. If you want a lightweight laptop the 14 inch ones are just much lighter and very portable. I think old gen zephyrus g14 are also around 2.5k? There's also a bunch of different models out for 14 inch gaming laptops

Macbook udah menang di poin 1, 2, dan 4. Gw pribadi sebetulnya dulu mau beli Macbook Air M3 16/512. Cuma ngeliat HP Omen Transcend 14 (16/1024) diharga yg sama dan bisa buat jalanin LLM juga pula karena pake GPU Nvidia (gw kerja di IT RnD, lagi sering riset seputar AI) akhirnya nggak jadi beli Macbo
