AMD Radeon RX 5300M Destroys NVIDIA’s GTX 1650 and 1650 Max-Qedit
I know a lot of people who were able to get a GeForce GTX 1650 powered gaming laptop for a very reasonable price. Paired with the Ryzen 5 3550H, they make for some extremely affordable devices. However, AMD has gone punched a hole in the entry-level Turing card. According to NotebookCheck, the new Radeon RX 5300M beats both the Max-Q version of the 1650 as well as the standard. I wouldn’t look at the overall Firestrike score as it comprises the CPU PhysX performance too, but the graphics score should give a decent indication of the real-world position of the RX 5300M.

Asus Zenbook 14 review: It’s sleek, stylish, powerful and expensiveedit
I have seen many people disappointed with the AMD processors, but gone are the days when AMD used to play second fiddle to Intel. The new series of AMD Ryzen 5 3500U Mobile Processor are fast and energy efficient. While the laptop does not have an excellent battery life, it survives only 6 hours with gaming, and 8-9 hours with video watching and moderate use. It is still better than others in the range. Heating, though, is an issue, and the fan isn’t as quiet as you would want it to be.
