Immediate details were scant, but we do know that these third-generation Ryzen chips will use AMD’s SmartShift technology to move power between the CPU and GPU to increase performance.
The gaming laptop will have a 15.6-inch FHD resolution display with options for making that screen run at a 144Hz refresh rate with AMD FreeSync. Storage will go up to a 1TB PCIeM.2 SSD and a 2TB 5,400-rpm HDD.
There will be an optional 4-zone RGB backlit keyboard that works with Alienware Command Center software.The PC will also include AMD’s Radeon Software and Nahimic 3D audio.
We’re looking forward to getting the G5 15 SE and other Renoir-based laptops on our benches soon to start testing.
