Now ready to order at Lenovo US site; search for IdeaPad-5-15ARE05.

Won't the Renoir chips be competing vs Tiger Lake, which are going out to OEMs this summer?  A pcgamer article reports more competitive Geekbench 5 numbers for Tiger Lake...

"Assuming the Geekbench numbers are true, Tiger Lake-U has some modest gains in performance: a single core score of 1400, and a multi-core score of 4920."

amd renoir is about:
-energy efficiency under load
-a lot of productivity
-midrange low power to high-end gaming/working long lineup
-competitive price
-often a better gpu(does not matter much really)
the only flaws
-idle power consumption(not confirmed)
-intel has faster single thread performance(does not matter much really. since it costs energy, there is no 5ghz advantage like in desktop)
..
current intel chips are full of flaws.
14nm lakes are hot and power hungry, also worse gpu, 10nm lakes are..4 cores. you say 5k geekbench for the new tiger? renoir is up to 8k. good luck with it.

Go look again, 5000+ for Windows also and not just Linux.

Yeah you're right. I stand corrected. Anyways, I did say "most" in the article. The same variability will likely apply for the Ryzen as well.

Your Geekbench search link shows many Intel Core i7-10710U scoring over 5000+ in Lenovo based chasis. There goes the "much better" argument. ;D

Haha. That's for Linux. Not under Windows. Have a look again ;)

There are multiple examples of over 5000 scores in windows using MSI prestige or Dell XPS chassis. And even over 6000 on NUC platforms. It doesn't seem to be OS dependent.

4500U beats the 1065g7 and 10710u

4500u=1065g7 in cpu multicore and gpu. same memory options.
10710 has faster cpu and slower gpu, no lp memory option.

Quote4700u beats a 250MX on graphics

id love to spend extra 50usd for 250mx to pair with 4xxxu

QuoteI can't wait to see 4800u and 4900u

4800=4700+25% cpu
4900=4700+30% cpu :)

QuoteI would also like to see some actual release dates, not vague quarter dates. Does anyone know when the embargo ends at least?

the whole system is fucked up. i can call my car dealer about any date and any piece of my current or future car. he would be very happy to share any information with me, i am his money. laptop oems, on the other hand, are all in cooperation against consumers. no dates, no answers, hidden parameters/hardware everywhere, we share our knowledge about compatibility, performance, upgrade options, between us, with no to very little help from a manufacturer.
i tried to discuss this question on reddit a couple of years ago. people told me something like "haha who the f*** are you"

LENOVO INVALID" is my favorite geekbench laptop model :)
4500u is a direct competitor to 1065g7
