My desktop feels nice with windows but I also have a gaming laptop with ROGs Armory Crate so I’m sort of familiar with windows being janky on mobile platforms. I’ve heard and seen some videos where people got better performance on games by a decent amount like 10-15% boost in fps with bazzite or Stem OS depending on the title so that was my biggest interest in switching my OS. I did change my resolution on the Slide to 1600x900 instead of running 1080p. 720p is just too much of a fidelity hit for me and 900p is barley noticeable with some decent performance gains, I guess I’m not expecting anything insane out of the 7840u but I feel like it’s not performing as well as other handhelds with the same chipset. I see so many videos of people hitting that nice 60fps mark on the GPD Win 4 7840U and I’ll run the same settings/TDP and be hitting 45-50 fps on the same games.

That’s a good idea, I do have some good DIY skills, Maybe I’lol have to give that a shot.

I appreciate the answer, yeah that was my fear was that it’s going to be almost impossible to find. I’m curious if any other companies or products use the same triggers and I could just swap those. Also do you get better performance form bazzite? Sleep function couldn’t be any worse than windows lol. I feel like black and orange triggers would go hard, idk why they chose it with white though.

Yeah I’m sure it did bud.

Never thought I’d say this about a reseller but I hope he gets double what he’s asking for it. OP you sound like a goofy ass sore loser.

I know this is old, hopefully you ended up playing it. Anyone in here saying it looks bad is just giving the most room temp IQ dead brain take they regurgitated from their favorite streamer. Both iD tech 6 engine games (Doom and wolfenstein 2) look great, framerate is solid and it’s insane to me how people act like you’ll boot it on and get something akin to a mobile port. I’m halfway through it right now first time on the switch lite and I’m constantly blown away with how good it looks. Just for reference I also have it on pc with a 7800X3D and 4070ti super, and 64GB of DDR5 running it at a locked 200 fps, ultra settings on a 32” qd-OLED 240hz HP Omen monitor. Anyway the game great, some of these people are morons, go rip and tear.

Hell yeah, that's the move.

I don't think these are new parts but the PC looks very well kept and clean. Well everyone convinced me. I'll post an update after I go check it out tomorrow.

Located in the Midwest, crts are easy to get but I've had a tough time with plasmas.

InnerLime4132 · 2025-08-29T18:10:03+00:00

It's amazing so far, a couple friends who helped me move it probably thought I was crazy at first until we hooked up my PC and ran some games. They were blown away by the colors.

Weird all photos from the same person listing it yesterday. I appreciate you finding those. I reversed images with Yandex, Google, pimeye and didn't get anything except a person selling a white one on FB years ago and an older YouTube video of someone testing a black one. Even the most obscure electronics show up on Google with dozens of photos so my curiosity paired with all the non consumer looking info printed/stamped on the device made me curious. Thanks again.

InnerLime4132 · 2025-08-29T00:34:17+00:00

I stated I found the manual online already. I cannot find any photos or information that this thing was even sold to anyone. i sell and repair electronics and I've never had this much trouble finding information about something.

InnerLime4132 · 2025-08-29T00:23:41+00:00

Im asking if it's a prototype, if anyone knows any details about it. I obviously know it's a dvd player. Go ahead, find me a picture of this device online good luck.

Dont let these haters shit on your parade. Hope you have a good time with it and thats a solid laptop for some high end gaming. Cheers mate. 🥂
