    Don't underestimate this gaming laptop, I pushed mine to 75w by swapping v-bios and now it performs just aswell as any other rtx 4050 laptop.

    Quick question, why do reviewers always let us listen to the sound? How could we possibly get a nice representation of sound going through their mic and then compressed and out our tiny phone speakers?

      @G1NZOU 4 месяца назад +1

      Depends, some people are watching while wearing good headphones.
      But yeah, unless the reviewer is doing a side by side comparison of a bunch of laptops it's hard to really tell the difference, nothing beats hearing it in person with a store demo model.

    Not sure if you forgot to mention it or maybe I wasnt paying attention but the 4050 in this laptop is also capped at a low 45 watts. This GPU has the ability to utilize 115 watts max. So this GPU may not perform as well as other 4050 GPUs. Besides that, nice review

    worst port numbers (only 2), no thunderbolt, screen is not bright enough, no extra ssd or hdd slot (only 1 ssd 512 GB so upgrade possible only via replacement), battery size/life sucks, only 45W 4060, no nvidia optimus, no mux switch, terrible hinge design, no RGB I must have been drunk when i bought this laptop. Dont buy this crap at any price. Only thing good about this laptop is the 40 series card and low weight, but sucks otherwise

      @@VictorOliveira-l7p if your options are limited i guess there's no workaround. the worst points about this laptop were storage upgradability (512 gb no extra slots) and usb ports + (check the other points i mentioned). If you are good with the provided specs for cyborg and want a little less lightweight non-gamey laptop look and more professional office look laptop then can go with cyborg as the rtx 4060 can handle anything you throw at it, despite having low wattage. Best.

I have not ran a single game on it uptil now, please advise if you have any suggestions to make it perform faster and better.

    • @G1NZOU
      @G1NZOU 4 месяца назад

      I assume they made a compromise one weight, reviewers have said this is more portable than many other options which is partly to do with them choosing a smaller battery, as well as limiting the TDP so there's less heat from the GPU which results in a smaller and lighter heatsink.

    I got the 12vf003 at launch next to my RX7800xt Nitro + Desktop build. And its been pretty good so far.
    Positives
    4060 45watt ( yes 45watt still with resize bar its pretty good performance overal )
    i7 chip
    i changed the 512gb m.2 to 4tb m.2
    16gb ram might change it to 32gb
    also people hating Build quality but i got this one over Katana and GF cuz those felt horrible in store, so i went with the 45watt version cuz the Cyborg build felt better.
    Also for better colors enable Windows Auto color management. Makes it a whole lot better to look at.
    Also update the BIOS day one. i never had stutter issues. Just put everything on performance like Nvidea control panel power options and msi center.
    With resize bar enabled its running pretty much any new game at almost highest settings.

    Just got the A13VF for a decent price, but gosh, that screen is awful. It is miles behind any cheap IPS monitor, looks more like a bad TN panel. 66% sRGB coverage is a joke, only 250 nits at max brightness, but the worst part is probably the response times, it's a blurry mess, no matter the frame rate.
