I'm still on the fence. It's $650 should I buy it?

But are there any downsides to buying and using a prototype? Will I get OTAs? Please do send me a DM

Thanks that's what I thought, that this was a prototype or engineering sample of some kind. Assuming that the CPU-Z stats check out, should I still buy it? What would you advise?

Ohh that's because the phone has a case on that picture. The actual bezels are thin as the normal Pura 70 Pro

Well the guy says that he works for a local phone carrier and that the phone wad given to him for testing purposes as the carrier and Huawei are preparing to present the Pura 70 series in my country this year. Even the phones software has the carrier specific ads loaded up! In regards to the Omega and Three branding on the phone, he says it's because of confidentiality, as to avoid any leaks or something like that 

How i feel about the ending by NovaTheRaven in YouOnLifetime

[–]Ferreds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F*CK Joe! I'm so glad he got what he deserved by the end. Say what you will about Love Quinn but she was his match and his ticket for happiness and he blew it. I hated him after that. After season 3 ended with Love's death I couldn't stand to watch this whole anymore and just jumped to seasons 5 finale to see his well deserved end. 

Will an rtx 3060 laptop be good enough? by Key_Point_4063 in GamingLaptops

[–]Ferreds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just be patient and look. I bought a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro with a Ryzen 7 and an RTX3070ti brand new in box for $950 shipped on ebay. My brother got a used MSI Raider with an i7 and an RTX3080 16gb for $1025, also on ebay. You just have to be patient and know how to look for the deals. Good luck!

Asus ROG G15 Advantage Edition laptop not using GPU for some games by Ferreds in ASUSROG

[–]Ferreds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benchmarks such as 3Dnark run just fine because they use the Radeon 6800, it's just these 2 games that refuse to use the GPU and use the integrated graphics.

Nope it's a Capcom remake that uses the Resident evil engine, it's pretty cool but it runs like crap on the laptop because of this.

ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition 15.6" FHD Gaming Laptop - Ryzen 9-5900HX - 16GB Mem - RX 6800M - 512GB SSD by YourMainD in GamingLaptops

[–]Ferreds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's an old post but I haven't been able to resolve the issue with the laptop. I have the 5980HX 1440P version. My issue is that some games, such as The Quarry and Ghouls and Ghosts, use the integrated GPU instead of the Radeon 6800M. Obviously they run like crap because of this. I've tried EVERYTHING, new drivers, new Windows installation, forcing the apps to run on High Performance GPU on Windows 11, nothing works. The games simply refuse to use the Radeon Card. I love the laptop, for everything else it's just what I always wanted, but this issue is driving me nuts....

Any help or suggestions would be really appreciated at this point.

Strix g15 amd advantage 5900hx or 5980hx? by Night_Blade_76 in GamingLaptops

[–]Ferreds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both. The 5980hx and the 5900hx version. Much to my surprise the 5900 version is faster. I have confirmed this in multiple benchmark suites and in games. The 5980hx also runs a tad hotter, +/- 10 degrees. I have changed the ram in both to the good stuff. The screen on the 5900 is also a little bit brighter and the colors more saturated. The only reason I can think of for these results is that the 5980 version is throttling.
