 There may be some applications where the AMD CPU will catch up with the Intel one, but I can't find it. The performance hit when running on battery is an even bigger issue.

Look for any of the newest models that use the 11th gen Intel chips if you want the best performance.

I was seriously disappointed in the performance of the CM5 and the Ryzen 5 processor. I even opened 4 windows with the Octane 2 benchmark running - the Intel was still faster.

<div class="md"><p>Been looking into buying a Chromebook for school and for when I&#39;m away from the computer. I&#39;ve been looking at the Asus CX5 and the Lenovo Thinkpad C13. I&#39;m not sure which processor is better suited for some intensive tasks like running Blender.</p>
</div>

Trying to decide on my first Chromebook.

It is 79,000 yen (around $850 U.S) and it will serve my purpose of having a reliable chromebook for a least 5 year or more. Plus the I could also play games on it as well as web browsing etc. 

Before I buy, Any advice ??

 on other Google products. Yes, this portion of the review is likely not going to be limited to the Flip CM5, and that's why the review is docked to only 3 stars and not 2. In addition, I'm still able to use browser-based Google Drive, but it still shouldn't be any kind of issue. But shouldn't the baseline be that Google apps run seamlessly on Google OSes (Android and Chrome)? Forgive me for expecting Google products to interact well with each other

 As such, when my old word processor laptop finally breathed its last symbolic breath, I opted for the switch. Unfortunately, however, my first impressions ~2 weeks in are not particularly high. Before making the purchase, I appropriately did my research. During that time, I was continually thrown back at how low basic performance specs, only to be assuaged by (sponsored, bought and likely fake) tech reviews of how Chrome OS doesn't need all the fancy schmancy high RAM and CPU processing power because

. it's Chrome OS! I knew better, but when budget constraints were accounted for, there were not any truly viable options of reliable brand + desired features + desired performance specs in my price range. Something had to give and it ended up being the performance specs. Out-of-the box, the device consistently hangs when loading basic, basic things

 Something had to give and it ended up being the performance specs. Out-of-the box, the device consistently hangs when loading basic, basic things. I'm not attempting to run anything remotely intensive and there is still that consistent pause that isn't there in similarly-priced (non-bloatware-filled) Windows devices -- let alone anything running Linux (MacOS excluded because of price-point). This is entirely because of the industry standard to short consumers on specs

Unnecessarily low performance specs and horrible selection of Play Store apps for Chromebooks

 It performs really well. Battery life is great. Display is very good. Everything you'd expect from a fairly high spec machine

Great looking machine but...

Asus Chromebook Flip CM5 review: A stealthy, sturdy AMD laptop with a big display

 A $500 configuration of the CM5 is available, but it drops to a slightly slower Ryzen 3 processor, 4GB of memory and 64GB of slower eMMC flash memory for storage. That configuration would still be fine for general use, but spending the extra $100 if you can gets you a much better Chromebook. The CM5 is big but still fairly slim.

11ax (Wi-Fi 6) wireless, you get a lag-free streaming experience. It's Asus' first Chromebook with an AMD processor and graphics with performance that falls between models we've tested with 10th-gen Intel Core i3 and Core i5 processors. The configuration I tested will first be available from Costco sometime in August for $600. That price converts to about £434 and AU$813

Asus launches $499.99 Chromebook Flip CM5 with AMD Ryzen 5 processors

ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 Gaming Laptop: Enjoy everyday gaming with this ASUS notebook PC. The AMD Ryzen 9 processor and 16GB of RAM let you run graphics-heavy games smoothly, while the potent NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 graphics produce high-quality visuals on the 14-inch Full HD display. This ASUS notebook PC has 1TD SSD that shortens load times and offers ample storage.

RTINGS

Our pick for gaming is the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2022). It features an AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS CPU with 8 cores and 16 threads, and you can choose between an AMD Radeon RX 6700S or 6800S GPU. Both GPUs are powerful enough to provide a good gaming experience, and they're also suitable for production workloads like video editing and 3D animation. The laptop feels very well built even though it's mostly plastic, and it's available in two color schemes, Moonlight White or Eclipse Gray.

Performance-wise, the AMD Radeon RX 6700S can push fairly high frame rates, even at the display's native QHD+ resolution. For example, it reaches around 80 fps at high settings in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, with almost no noticeable stutter. The AMD Radeon RX 6800S is about 5 to 15% faster on average, so it may or may not be worth upgrading depending on the price. Thermal throttling is minimal, but the laptop does get hot and loud under load.

As for the display, you get a 16:10 QHD panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and FreeSync support. It delivers a clear image in fast-moving scenes, and it has full coverage of the DCI P3 color space, making it well suited for content creation. Unlike the previous G14 from 2021, there's now a webcam, and ASUS has also added a Windows Hello&ndash;compatible IR camera for quick logins. There's plenty more to praise about the G14, but the main takeaway is that it's a well-rounded and versatile laptop that most people will be happy with.

tom's Hardware

You can use the same laptop for gaming and your studies. The Zephyrus G14, with its AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS and AMD Radeon RX6800S, delivers gaming-grade performance, but also has some features great for working on campus.

For instance, on our battery test, the Zephyrus lasted more than 10 and a half hours, which means you can go through long lecture halls or stints at the library without plugging in (unless you're gaming, of course). The AMD Advantage model has a 16:10 aspect ratio to show a bit more text, spreadsheets or other work than prior versions.

And while it goes without saying on most laptops, Asus brought the webcam back to this model, for when you need to work remotely or collaborate with others from your dorm room.

Read: Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 review

If you don't want to spend too much on a premium gaming laptop like the Razer Blade 14 (2022), go with the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2022). It sports a powerful 8-core AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS CPU, and you can choose between an AMD Radeon RX 6700S or 6800S GPU. Both GPUs can push high frame rates to provide smooth gameplay, even in AAA games running at the display's native QHD resolution. As for the display itself, it has a 120Hz refresh rate and a fast response time to deliver a clear image in fast-moving scenes, and it supports FreeSync to reduce screen tearing. The laptop is only available with 1TB of storage, which isn't very much considering modern AAA titles typically take up more than 100GB each; however, the SSD is user-upgradeable, so you can just put in a larger drive.

The keyboard feels comfortable to type on and provides satisfying tactile feedback, and there are plenty of ports for peripherals and external displays. Its 720p webcam is decent if you want to stream, and it supports Windows Hello facial recognition, meaning you can log in quickly. As for battery life, its 76Wh battery lasts through an entire day of light use, but for gaming, you can expect it to last only a little over an hour, so you'll need to use it plugged in most of the time. It gets hot and loud under load, although you can change the fan and thermal profile at the cost of some performance loss.

Another option is the HP OMEN 16 (2022). It's a great alternative if you want a larger 16-inch screen or prefer an Intel/NVIDIA system. It has a better port selection, including an Ethernet port and Thunderbolt 4 support, and it's more upgradeable than the ASUS as you can replace both memory modules, and there are two storage slots, whereas the ASUS only has one user-replaceable memory module and one storage slot. The display doesn't get very bright, so it might not be the best option if you often use the laptop in very well-lit settings.

If you don't want to spend too much on a premium laptop like the Apple MacBook Pro 16 (2021), check out the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2022). Yes, gaming laptops are excellent for video editing because there are many similarities for hardware requirements. It's particularly true with the G14, as it sports a sharp 16:10 QHD panel with full DCI P3 coverage. Its factory calibration is good, but you might want to fine-tune it before you do any color work. It has a powerful 8-core AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS CPU, and you can choose between an AMD Radeon RX 6700S or 6800S GPU, both of which have enough horsepower to handle video editing.

There are a few downsides you should know about. First, this laptop gets hot and loud under load; you can change the fan settings if it bothers you, but at the cost of some performance loss. Second, the battery lasts a little over an hour when performing demanding tasks like video editing and gaming, meaning you'll have to keep the charger close by. Third, the USB-C ports support USB 3.2 Gen 2 standards, which is much slower than USB4 or Thunderbolt 4. ASUS promised an update that will add USB4 support, but there's no word on the update. Overall, although it doesn't feel as premium as the Apple laptop we recommend above, it's still an excellent laptop for video editing, and it can also double as your gaming PC.

ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 14" Gaming Laptop AMD Ryzen 9 16GB Memory NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q 1TB SSD Moonlight White GA401IV-BR9N6 - Best Buy

 3. GPU. The novicia RTX2060 performs very well. The integrated AMD graphics also work very well for programs that do not benefit from a discrete GPU

 AutoCAD is not a very good multithreaded app, so high clock rate translates to better performance. So, strictly for AutoCAD, an Intel 11th gen Core i7 or i9 might have been a better choice.

 Excellent magnesium alloy shell. Well put together. 2, CPU. The Ryazan 9 4900HS is a great performer, runs my main programs (AutoCAD, Dialux) well

 3. CPU clock rate. AutoCAD is not a very good multithreaded app, so high clock rate translates to better performance. So, strictly for AutoCAD, an Intel 11th gen Core i7 or i9 might have been a better choice

 4. Battery life. My other laptop is a 5 year old Asus Zenbook, which is nice, but this runs rings around it in all ways, the great battery life being one of them.  Cons: 1

Great laptop with a couple of caveats

 This is disappointing because most stores that sell the G14 offer a free copy  - no thunderbolt 3  Amazon has also increased the price by 10% since I last bought it a few weeks ago. Consider the price, and whether it's worth it for you. The price will likely go higher than it is now.

 If you are irritated by noise, this laptop is not for you.  - no free copy of assassin's Creed Valhalla.
