I would have bought if wifi was ax210 instead of ax200. No Linux support for ax101 or ax200.

These 7040HS chips have been out for weeks, and these drivers should have been ready *before* shipping the product.

Yea, that is not good, but will catch up. As linux user worse thing for me is lack normal video accelaration support in chrome browser on linux. Big ignore from google for many years. Only possible in some cases with hacks from community. But older GPU's which are capable are out of luck.

They want to earn some money, not just make you happy :) And 7840HS or 7840U are very good processors but you cannot buy them as end user to build your own box. There are no desktop analogs with such integrated graphics. At least for now.

Quote from: NikoB on July 08, 2023, 12:46:15How can the latest SoC with the most advanced video decoder have frame drops at a banal 4k@60fps, if AMD claims confident support for 8k@60fps?
Easy, because AMD still has NOT released an official driver yet. It's running with unsupported drivers, which is making the whole thing slower and more unstable.

AMD... Please do your homework.

Those. as in the case of W10-W11, users at their own expense are free beta testers for the manufacturer.

So maybe people will then be paid to test and give them beta products for free? After all, this is a highly paid job in the IT industry...

Why do people agree to pay their own money for beta versions and be beta testers for free for manufacturers (and often alpha, as with W11)?

The non-standardized power plug is bad joke and dealbreaker.

At the same time, the author did not mention this problem in detail anywhere, except for the results, which is rather strange for a "review".

Well, the noise of 32dBA when playing 4k@60fps is simply shameful against the background of completely silent operation of smartphones for many years with the same video stream. It's been a disgrace to the entire x86 industry for years now! Consumption in 4k@60 30-bit decoding mode should not exceed 5-8W in total for a long time, except for the screen. So coolers should NOT work at all in this mode! As in 8k@60fps, since they are also supported by hardware.

Due to the closed nature of these specifications (paid only) and the fact that the testers on this site do not test the full capabilities of the TB4 / USB40 ports, it is not clear whether the USB40 supports 2xDP1.4b simultaneously or tunneling video traffic in 40Gb / s mode, as TB4. Hence the question of their equivalence for the consumer.

Currently, 4k@144Hz (and 120Hz @ 30 bit color) monitors can operate in lossless mode (i.e. without lossy DSC compression) only where a TB4 input is provided. And accordingly, the TB4 output must be on your device. If not, you will have to use such monitors at 120Hz(30bit) and 144Hz(24/30bit) only with DSC compression in the legacy DP1.4b mode. Most technically illiterate people don't even know about it...

Cons says no thunderbolt usbc support but there are USB4 ports so that should either be corrected or USB4 ports should be part of Pros.

+30% power is absurd with the more energy efficient Zen4 Phoenix. This is pure cheating, just like Intel. But earlier we were assured that Zen4 Phoenix is the most energy efficient x86...

Why run this processor at 60W when the maximum power/speed effect is achieved at 35W-45W?

Again, poorly balanced operation of RAM - only writing is close to the theoretical limit of 5600. Reading/copying is a complete failure by sustained speed. Shame for R&D  if that's the case is real.

The absence of optical SPDIF (as well as 5.1 audio output) with galvanic isolation to external DACs with headphone amplifiers is also shameful.

In such solutions, the decisive factor is still - silence - in office work, complete silence on YouTube/streaming when playing any content up to 8k@60fps VP9/AV1. The overall noise level is no more than 26-27dBA with a load of up to 30-35% on the cores on average. And at a temperature of cores no more than 75C.

For that price, there should be 64GB of RAM, not 32. And a 2TB SSD. It is overpriced by $150-200.

VERY GOOD PRICE Our review unit comes configured with the Ryzen 7 7840HS CPU, integrated Radeon 780M GPU, 32 GB DDR5-5600 RAM, and 1 TB NVMe SSD for approximately $780 USD. No other CPU, RAM, or SSD options are available at the time of writing. VERY GOOD PRICE

The Ryzen 7 7840HS and integrated Radeon 780M further cement AMD's status as a mini PC powerhouse. Early Beelink models were seen as low-cost alternatives to the Intel NUC, but the latest GTR7 now outperforms most options from Intel.
