Intel Core Ultra X7 358H Panther Lake leak reveals Xe3 Arc GPU performance in Geekbench. This is Panther Lake chip which possibly will be used in next gen MSI Claw.

First MSI Claw A1M (Ultra 7) scored higher than Z1E in Time Spy and Fire strike, but there was barely any game that ran better on Claw A1M vs Z1E, and some games really struggled, I know because I had every major Z1E handheld and Claw A1M. On the flip side 8AI is so powerful, I can't believe how wel

I know it’s the white version but I’m happy

Very nice choice !Mine is now repaired by asus because b button was blocking itself if you press it left part of it. Using warranty. Other than that it's the best handled/windows fse experience so far. I came from a more powerfull MSI Claw A1M, battery was melting so fast and unreliable and more com

I am IN A MENU!

Didn't notice something strange on my laptop (ryzen 7 8845hs 32gb ram rtx 4070m) But I did with my Msi Claw A1M. Before yesterday it was smooth 60fps gameplay (albeit with low-med graphics). Now after 30 mins of gameplay i get stutters. After reloading game it goes fine for another 30 mins. Idk.

Question about SD Cards

I have a MSI Claw A1M and I don't know if my unit is faulty but microSD cards are more or less unusable with it the normal way sadly. When the device heats up so does the microSD card until it starts thermal throttling. Then it will randomly stutter for 2-3 seconds every now and then which is very a

IGPU boosting issue ultra 7 155h

It's mostly due to insufficient power budget. Can share all of the BIOS page? I can't do much on my 125H laptop due to BIOS restriction but if it were me: Disable HyperThread Disable LPE cores. They don't do much and if task gets loaded on it, they suck Set lower OS level P State for Windows Power p

50% more power for..... a 70% higher price

50% depends on the game. Actually some of them 11% some of them 42% according to Intel’s claims. Btw idle TDP is 8 watts or higher according to RGC Ross. My XAX idles around 2-3 watts for comparison. Also Arc graphic drivers are also still immature. Some games have graphical issues, some have feame

Abysmal performance EGPU

I also had stutters with my MSI Claw A1M with a RTX 3060 12GB via the TB4 dock TH3P4. After I disabled the Resizable Bar functionality in the hidden BIOS feature the stutters are gone. But I can only play at 30 FPS with HIGH presets. Now I have the Gigabyte Aorus RTX 5060TI AI Box and can play with

I Installed SteamOS on My MSI Claw A1M... Here's What Happened

I came away feeling very similar. I actually liked SteamOS as an operating system, but on the MSI Claw A1M the gaming experience just wasn't consistent enough for me to switch away from Windows 11.

SteamOS 3.8.10 on MSI Claw A1M — working well out of the box, but game results are mixed

Yeah, I agree. The hardware feels like it has potential, but the driver side still seems to be the main thing holding the MSI Claw A1M back under Linux. SteamOS 3.8.10 was interesting because the handheld experience itself was really nice, but performance and compatibility still felt mixed depending
