Players can play recent games under this versatile laptop since it has the latest generation high -end dedicated GEFORCE RTX 5060 Ray Tracing NVIDIA dedicated graphics card Blackwell.
Especially since the GeForce RTX 5060 benefits from its full capacities since its TDP is not restrained contrary to what is found under other configurations.
But also that playing in Full HD requires less graphic calculations than in high definition (eg: 2.5K), which implies a higher number of FPS.
If the players will appreciate the GeForce RTX 5060, the creators too.
Because under the applications taking advantage of the GPU calculation power, such as Vegas, the Adobe Suite or VSDC, the GeForce RTX 5060 provides graphical acceleration of multimedia treatments.
In practice the GeForce RTX 5060 is activated by Nvidia Optimus technology to carry out graphics treatments deemed too heavy for the AMD Radeon 780m graphical solution inserted in the processor, the two obviously allowing to look at HD photos and videos.
Despite its much lower services than that of the dedicated GPU, the AMD Radeon 780m is preferred to the maximum by Optimus to ensure the best possible autonomy.
Precisely represents an undeniable asset of this configuration since it is established around 8 hours on battery in light use.
Certainly not the most nomadic that is by nature, this computer is nevertheless much easier to transport regularly than an office PC. It can therefore be used serenely in one room or the other of the house for example, without the need to worry about the proximity of a power outlet.

The Ryzen 7 260 will also interest the creatives since it performs treatments much faster than a quad/hexa core. We clearly feel the difference in CPU resources that exploit multicoors, as in video editing, 3D rendering or photo retouching.

You can clearly store and install multiple various and varied files, applications and games on the SSD with a high capacity of 1000 GB integrated.
We appreciate that a M.2 location is available, allowing to insert a second SSD in the future if necessary if you need more space.
Silent, energy efficient and very fast, the SSD clearly participates in that this versatile gaming laptop is well reactive and fluid.
Under this laptop, the arrival on online game cards is made quickly as is game/software, processing and start/stop launches.
