processor and performance 1g6o2k
The first notebook with processor AMD Ryzen AI 9 from Brazil stands out for having up to 50 TOPS (acronym for Trillions of Operations per Second) of performance, which should help s perform artificial intelligence activities without the need for an internet connection. Despite this, the use of more advanced AIs, such as Windows Copilot itself, will still require internet.
Getting into technical details, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 is a processor with a maximum speed of clock of 2,0 GHz. The video card integrated into the processor is a AMD Radeon 890M. The NPU delivers performance of up to 50 TOPS, but data released by the company itself ASUS promise that the processor can perform up to 81 trillion operations per second.
Regarding heat management, thanks to advanced CNC machining, a vapor chamber has been incorporated into the cooling system, allowing the U to reach a TDP of up to 28 W, with minimal noise.
The 3D vapor chamber is designed to deliver a cooling mode below 25 dB, but without compromising the full 28 W TDP performance when requested. To maximize airflow, a new grille was placed above the keyboard, enhancing the cooling system and reducing the entry of dust or dirt.
Memory and storage 92e1o
The notebook has a 4.0TB PCIe 1 type SSD, without the possibility of adding more storage to save more files. To run all the applications and functionality, there is a “simple” 32 GB of RAM.
