The RX 5500 XT is the clear winner here. It maintains notably higher frame rates than the GTX 1650 Super across all ten games tested. The gap swells to a significant 20-30% in the Navi favored titles in-line with AMD’s official figures. Considering that there is no RTX here, we have no reason to not recommend the 5500 XT over the 1650 Super. However, steer clear of the 8GB model which costs $200+. For that much, you’re well off with a 1660 or even the 1660 Super for that matter. Cheers!

Ever since AMD announced the Ryzen 4000 Renoir APUs at CES this year, there has been considerable hype and anticipation about the new APUs from both the press and consumers alike. Over the past few days, we’ve been seeing several Ryzen 4000 benchmarks leak and all of the results have been promising. Now, we are seeing, perhaps for the first time, a Cinebench result of the Ryzen 7 4800H — a 7nm 45W 8-core 16-thread part that is slated to take on the Core i7-9750H and possibly, the Core i9-9980HK as well.

Just days after Geekbench scores leaked for Intel’s upcoming Comet Lake-H i9-10980HK, tipster @TUM_APISAK spotted a Userbenchmark listing for the processor. Despite having a 45W TDP that’s less than half that of the desktop i7-9700K, the i9-10980HK delivers better single-threaded performance and comparable multithreaded performance to Intel’s Coffee Lake flagship.

A s far as gaming notebooks are concerned, brands have been conforming to a singular design of thin bezels and compact form factors. Take the new Acer Nitro 7, for instance. It has a full metal chassis that adds to its sturdiness and slim bezels that look smart and also keep the size in check. At 2.5kg, it isn’t the lightest gaming notebook, but fits easily into a regular-sized bag. Its edges are a bit sharp and makes carrying it in your hand a tad uncomfortable.

Intel’s 10th Gen Comet Lake-H laptop gaming processors are on the verge of launch this month and we have some leaks of this upcoming CPU. Already the last gen’s Intel Core i9-9980HK is already a powerful processor if it’s cooled appropriately. The Core i9-9980HK score 28,625 points in Geekbench 4.4 that puts it on par with the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X, whereas, the Core i9-9880H outperformed its HK sibling, scoring 29,077 points in the same benchmark.
