Update: The full review of the ASUS Scar 17 with 7945HX is up! Get all the details next: th-cam.com/video/TjvQ1ZezOXY/w-d-xo.html
Hyping for the review, since EOFY is happening soon in Australia, so massive sales are coming soon
Hey Jarrod, would you be able to get a laptop with a 7745HX in it and compare it with the 7945HX in single core heavy games and benchmarks? I play alot of game / VR games that utilize single core heavily so the 3.6 vs 2.9 base clock has me concerned that getting the top end will gimp my personal experience. Problem is alot of companies force you to get the high end if you want a high end graphics card which sucks. EG Alienware.
Any chances you will also review the regular Strix G 17/18 or how it's called this year.
I'm curious how it compares to mine from last year.
@@florinmatusea The difference between them is mostly different GPU, with overseas version of g17 and g18 only having up to 4070 while scar 17 and 18 starts at 4080
what do you think of this configuration for this laptop? legion pro 5 2023 - ryzen 9 7945HX - RTX4070 - 1TB - 32GB - screen 240 hertz 500 nits - for the price of 1896.56 US Dollar
Good to see AMD giving a tough competition to Intel. With Apple pressuring Intel with it's M series, Intel will be pressed to find a better performing processor thermally. Good for the consumer.
Apple has to watch for AMD not intel.
Not good for wallet though
when it come to laptop my brother always had a preference to AMD seems to be a good reason for it.
@@muhammadtausif7195 How is more competition by having 3 CPU vendors not good for wallet ?
@@abdullahnaeem7275eems your brother is just a fanboy, like me 😂
The last 1-2 years have been really great for mobile CPUs. I'm really excited to see how the next few years will shape up.

@@Samdevay basically you get best everything in the market right now, best screen display, best CPU best ram, best cooling system but only 4070 gpu because if higher than that with 1600p Nebula display in asus it will overheat your laptop unnecessarily.
Hey Jarrod, please make a video comparing the ryzen 5 and the i5 too. Majority of the people are planning to buy midrange laptops with those processors.
You're right. I hope r5 can beat i5 in single core 🙏 while also giving better battery life
i7 and ryzen 7 would be good too
@@randy89555 No Bro This year will be different❤❤❤
In single core intel will easily beat AMD ❤❤❤
And because of higher single core Clock in AMD so Battery life will be also Degrade
And another think clock speed can't decide the single core speed but yeh higher clock speed will definitely decide battery backup
Because if any company build a processor core for higher clock speed then that core can't use for lower clock speed
Thats why intel use P+ E Core Architecture for Efficiency
In battery power mode your laptop will use E core for more battery life.
You'll need to be far more specific.
If I ever get any 😅
Awesome video as always, no annoying music, straight top tier analysis and comparison, good job
Thank you for including C++ build times! I’d love to see the LLVM Linux build complemented with a windows/Visual Studio build, like a Chromium Windows build.
Hey love the analysis you do and that's great as always 👍 *BUT* you often switched around the position of the i9 and R9 in the different sections so viewers always have to check which one is on top on which graph. It would be better if one of them is always on top and the other always bottom.
Or change colour of one
The work you put into your comparisons is quit amazing. It's not something that's lost on most of us. Thank you for all the work you do!
Love it when Intel and AMD are competitive like this on the CPU side... on the GPU side tho its far grimmer for this generation especially, both AMD and Nvidia did a massive flop for price to performance especially when the price hike is so big.
Though amd has integrated rdna3 that blows away anything Intel has
@@bogganalseryd2324 ohhh yeah rog ally seems to be benefitting from it the most.
You have to look at overall cost and performance you're getting. the good old Intel/Nvidia combo of laptops are always sure to be extremely expensive. And the Nvidia Laptop GPU's from 80 series to 90 series never deliver what they hype up to be...that's been proven. Why I love the AMD Advantage laptops. Perfect balance of power and efficiency within a cohesive ecosystem
@@abdullahnaeem7275 I agree
yeah, it's especially funny to see desktop buyers complain about prices of the 4070 when its laptop equivalent(4080m) costs like $2500
Thanks Jarrod ,for all your hard work. Really appreciate it
13:06 Worse battery life should be attributed to the chiplet architecture of the CPU and not the iGPU. It takes vastly more power to constantly go off dies though substrate to send data between the CCDs and the IOD in contrast to monolithic 7040 series (and all the ones before it) and intel chips.
thank you for putting this together, your work is appriciated.
"For those who dare"
...to not have an honored warranty
Bruh, hope the motherboard problem doesn't spread into their AMD laptop lineup (as the Ryzen 9 7945HX is basically a 7950X desktop but with cutted down TDP)
@@sihamhamda47 All good
@@Eleganttf2
Considering the temps in this video I'd sooner bet it isn't. That AMD chip was running much hotter than the Intel and that was while pulling less power. Definitely something going on there.
What a right moment for this video to release, the M18 was offering both high end configs but ended up getting Intel since it was cheaper oddly enough & I guess i made the right choice since the performance difference in games is negligible (I play at 1080p anyways so went for the 480hz option ) all I care about is cooling & maintaining its max speeds now, thanks for the video glad I don’t have to cancel my order lol
how are you enjoying it? and why do you prefer to game in 1080p instead of 1440p on the m18? i keep going back and forth as i was gonna use AMD for the CPU and the 7900m GPU but it requires me to get the FHD screen and not the UHD
@@jacedragon I enjoy it a lot, IMO FHD is where it’s at for high refresh rate gaming & I love high FPS. It really depends on what you want, I went with the 4090 config but I hear the 7900m is in between 4070 & 4080. & on an 18 inch screen 1200p is fine for me of course QHD will look crispier but I don’t care much about res if Im being honest. I went for the 4090 for the best performance possible & the 13980HX since the test shows it was doing better at 1090p
Respect for all effort here Jarrod, great comparrison!
Jarrod, thank you very much for improving the "Professional applications" Section in the review: I must say that more and more engineering companies and such start using gaming laptops instead of "Professional" laptop with "professional" video cards (like RTX T1000, RTX A4000 and so on) -- the price premium for "professional" became insane lately, not reasoning the gains.
If you could add any 3D CAD applications (SolidWorks, CATIA, Fire Pro) and FE software (CalculiX is free, for example) that would be great!
Thanks for you hard work once more!
The gaming results where the AMD chip is faster in 1440p and 4k are due to the chip using less energy at lower usage, allowing the GPU to use more of the available TDP, allowing better FPS.
yes, I have same thing.
Yeah I was thinking it's funny how the CPU difference mattered more at higher resolutions 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds smart to me.
Dude couldn't make connection despite making his living out of this comparisons 😂😂
Didn’t he have the cpus power limited in those tests though?
This is probably the most informative channel about laptops. Excellent Videos Jarrod!
Thanks!

Phenomenal video per usual and much appreciated! In the process of upgrading in the next few days. Been bouncing between the Scar 16,17,18. I wish I had somewhere local to see them in person but unfortunately do not.
Man imagine being able to afford one of these.
6k for a laptop... dreams bro
there are cheaper, better options than Asuss imo. $4K AUD for a Legion 7 Pro 13900HX/4080 is about the best ... I mean least worst value...... and $5k for L7P with 4090, or the Tongfang (XMG Neo 23 / Mech17 GP / Aftershock Manta etc).
Go get a job instead of complaining about how you can't afford anything and starting a pity party under every tech video.
😂😂😂@@Freestyle80
My friend, I make 6 figures, and 6K for a laptop is extreme! I would never in 1000000 years bite that bullet.
The chiplets design's idle power inefficiency is still plaguing right there😫
power efficiency when being used is excellent, still doing pretty good against competitor at the same power level. But when it comes to idling/light task it hits where it hurts for mobile usage.
Great comparison, thank you! Would it also be possible to include a game like Anno 1800 in future comparisons? Since this game really benefits from fast CPUs and especially Cache, it would be great to see the difference in the processors performance.
Thanks for this video jarrod
I think the adantage in higher resolutions might be the efficiency of 7945HX letting the GPU use more of the TDP budget
Thanks information brother 🙏🏻😊
thanks, really great video!
You should have tested intel’s 150W performance.
So that we could know that the power difference matters or not
AMD winning in gaming performance but sadly sacrificing efficiency on battery kinda makes sense for these big desktop replacements
It's by design of their desktop chiplet architecture. It has an always active seperate I/O die.
Dragon range is their desktop chips.
@@DeepteshLovesTECH ELI5?
they don't sacrifice efficiency under load though, it's absolutely the opposite.
Which might make a difference in a few years in a laptop with a total board power limit when the CPU is hammered in a game using a full 175W on a 4080 or 4090. In other words, something like a CPU limit of 75W will get more work done by a 7945HX than it will by a 139x0 HX.
Thanks for another excellent comparison, Jarrod!
You think you could make a review of an HX i7 model+4090m?
The 1% lows due to too many cores on the i9 is terrible. Imagine buying a top end gaming laptop and get poor framerate stability just because you chose a top end CPU
what to do? can we disable e cores?
@@vmafarah9473 depends on a laptop I guess
I'm trying to decide between these two laptops right now and want to thank you for such a detailed, informative, and concise video. My current gaming laptop has an intel CPU but for most of my life I've preferred AMD, and, thanks to your excellent comparative review and AMD's friendlier price point, I think I'll be returning to my AMD roots. Thanks again!
I am also trying to choose, I have already reviewed 20 videos that you have chosen

Very detailed. Awesome work
Great video!
Thanks for your work jarrod!
Again, great video
Would love to see budget cpu comparison too!
Damn Jarrod ur videos are great keep it up 😎
I'm a bit surprised to see a cpu comparison and the good ol csgo isn't there. I mean, the thing runs on a potato but it would have been nice to see which cpu runs it better. I hope when csgo gets updated to cs2 or the cs2 beta becomes available, Jarrod'd include them in a test or something
It's really annoying that in the US, the Legion 7 with 7945hx won't be available. I have an intel laptop now and I'd like to give amd a try for once since at this point, you can't really go wrong with either
Valve had to give the beta to Jarrod
I can tell you wich cpu would win in CSGo. Intel. Because that game is heavily Singlecore Performance dependant.
It's generally not available outside of Asia. It isn't in the U.K. either for that matter.
Just what I was looking for, thanks!
Glad to help!
It's worth noting that the Radeon 610(M) is on the I/O die and explicitly meant for extremely light tasks and especially GPU diagnostics.
It's meant for youtube videos as well, & long battery life. I think Jarrod messed up that test.
Really interesting how poorly it did at TH-cam playback, considering that's half the reason it exists in the CPU.
@@randxalthor The iGPU didn't do poorly at youtube playback, battery life is unrelated to performance. The issue with battery life is with chiplets. Chiplets are much less efficient than monolithic dies, and it's a sacrifice that had to be made in order to achieve such high multicore performance at lower power. The 15W-54W Phoenix will have much higher battery life, since that is monolithic too.
@@mikeb3172 It might also be because the 7945hx is chiplet just like the 7950x (because they need chiplets to get 16 cores with good yields and reasonable cost), and the 7950x has significantly higher idle power consumption than even the 13900k due to the chiplet design. When amd does monolithic, they beat intel in battery life but seem to lose performance due to the lack of l3 cache that can fit.
@@mikeb3172 I don't think he messed up the test, but it is hard to pinpoint what as there's no power data during the battery life test. Maybe that would help? Notebookcheck found the 7945HX CPU package power to consume 42% more power at idle than the i9-13900HX (8.3W on AMD vs 5.8W on Intel). 2.5 at 1hr idle = 2.5 WHr stolen.
>We also checked the CPU Package Power while idling with identical power settings on both systems. Intel's Core i9-13900HX is better in this regard with an average consumption of 5.8 Watts, while the AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX consumes 42 % more at ~8.3 Watts.
But that'd only explain maybe ~10 WHr due to higher load (thus a ~11% loss in battery life). Something else is wrong here.
Please in future videos include some audio production tests such as latency and throw in some plugins in a Daw to see the CPU loads and compare. There's nothing for the audio guys on Ytube and if you include this everytime it'll become the place to go for us.
Very Detail's Test!!! Thx !!!!
Thanks for this review i made up my mind thanks to it. I bought the Intel version rog 18, but with nvidia 4070. I work a lot in Corel Draw and with Adobe Suite.
11:37 I think I have an explanation:
As you stated before, the 7945hx is a bit more efficient. So maybe it drawing less power improves thermals or powersupply for the GPU?
Love the fact that both are so close in real world performance. You can’t go wrong with either both.
except for in the battery life department, both are terrible with the 7945HX getting partiuclarly bad battery life. But hey, the people who get these laptops are likely getting them for desktop performance purposes... for the most part.
@@niko1evenyup battery life is a no brainer for these kind of laptops
They are just portable desktops at this point
@@ashutoshtiwary9605 kind of. If you're used to carrying a heavy laptop, 16 inchers are fine. I carry around the Scar 16 to classes everyday and it's fine. It's when you get to the 17 and 18 inchers where it gets unwieldy. In fact, I love using the Scar 16 for everyday use, it's a fantastic daily driver.
LOVED IT ! please try for a mid-tier CPU comparison test. More like Best bang for buck !! (also suggestions for suitable GPU - RTX 40 series preferred )
Great comparison! I wonder how the Intel Core i9-13900H compares to the intel i9-13980hx since I see the 13900h in many midrange to highrange laptops and the 13980hx in more highrange laptops. Are the 13980hx laptops worth their price?
no
Perfect review, tnx a lot.
Ty for the review
Very interesting as always, thanks JT
Thank you. You are always my favorite.
okay, just before I watch the vid: mad props for putting all these chapters and timestamps.
Hello Jarrod. Thank you for the great video. Is there any info on how to undervolt the Scar 17 CPU?
Thank you so much, I've spent over 14 hours researching whether I should get the 17 or 18, you save me a lot of time by making this video.
Appreciate your effort. Earned a subscriber.... Keep it up❤
12:34 Zen 4 laptop chips are same as desktop ones. Those aren't monolithic. 610M is simply what Zen 4 comes with by default, as this iGPU is inside of the I/O die
AMON AMARTH SHIRT...alone worth watching the video seeing you wear that :) Great video, great band, great reviewer. Thanks Jarrod! cheers m8!
🤘
Daaamn, how much I love competition.
quite a bummer for me, I loved the last generation of amd processors because they managed to deliver pretty good performance while doubling the battery life compared to intel. sucks to know that this isn't the case with these two high end chips
you need to get 7040HS or U series processors for that, they have better battery life compared to even ryzen 6000. 7945HX is just 7950X desktop with less memory speeds. Same with 13980HK, it is literally a 13900K.
From other reviews, the ryzen 9 seems to be way more efficient than the i9 in multi-core heavy workloads (all cores being pushed as hard as possible), and show similar efficiency in single core heavy workloads (a single core being pushed to 100%). However, for workloads that are not heavy at all (like the one done by Jarrod - watching a simple youtube video), the efficiency cores in the i9 are enough to keep the task going, so there's no need for the performance cores to kick in, thus saving a lot of battery.
Could the small lead at 1440p and 4K be from less electricity going to the CPU and more to the graphics from the reduced frame rates at higher resolutions?
any chance in adding in some vr performance into your laptop reviews?
I'm looking to make my desktop portable with something like one of these laptops, actualy the 7945hx 4080 zephyrus duo and some vr performance numbers would really help with the decision.
Looking more for a portable desktop replacement than a 'laptop' where its always plugged in, for mobile work i am more than happy with the 12 hours i get out of my m2 apple.
Could the 4K results seeming to be higher for AMD be a result of the 4090 drawing max wattage at 4K leaving less total power for the CPU ?
I thought about it too, if thats the case its just amd's efficiency coming into play and a genuine advantage.
no shouldn't be, the Scar 18 has a 330w power supply, and games shouldn't push the CPU all the way to 175 watts.
cross load limits might be lower tho. The less pure performance-oriented models like these tend to have firmware limits in place to limit CPU power under full GPU load to keep well below powerbrick limit.
thank you for the great vid Professor Snape.
great video thank you so much
I wish a compagny will put a 7945hx in a smaller chassis, even at 65w. Seem like it would destroy everything for a productivity laptop
thanks gareth that's so kind of you.
I was worried most about ray tracing performance but for gaming sound like price and good deal will be the major considered here.
Hi Jarrod how about R7 7745hx vs intel i7 13800hx? does it have the same result?
Your videos are excellent assessments and just what I was looking for. I enjoy the lack of hyperbole.

CPU cores are on the CCD, iGPU is on the IOdie ... so size in this case does not play a role ... it's more a power delivery issue I'd say ...
exactly, why I love your channel. Thank you.

Can you undervolt AMD CPU?
@@shrey522 Not much as intel, but you definitely can
good information,,, thkanks,,,
and, can i know all core boost clock?(max load)
Absolute monster Ryzen!!
Disappointed by the battery life though, hopefully it improves. (Maybe they could use a similar technique they employ to park CCDs on their desktop chips)
Why is the battery life poor? Battery life is where Ryzen is meant to crush Intel but these HX chips are really bad in that area
It's the core chiplet design - infinity fabric has had bad idle power use since Zen 1. Multiple dies communicating through the interposer routed through the IO die is just less power efficient than a ring bus on a single bit of silicon. The actual ryzen core itself is far more efficient than Intel's raptor lake P cores. But runs hotter because zen is really squished in there, being a server design at heart where they want heaps of cores running efficiently at low clockspeed. We consumers however pay a lot less than datacenters do for silicon so we get less of the same chiplets clocked way higher and that makes them less efficient. Swings and roundabouts.
@@defnotatroll has to be cpu idle power, no way 2cus is using more power than intels igpu lol, they need to fix software asap
@@defnotatroll these are the dragon range laptop cpus, they are desktop replacement class products providing high load efficiency. for ultrabooks and battery life, look for amds phoenix point cpus, which are the ones that get 20h+ of battery life

6:47 nice lightbar sync
The same 13980hx from strix g16 instead of g18 has been reporting phenomenal battery life? Close to 9.5 hours. That's phenomenal for a hx processor. You think 4080 and 16 inch ips draws less power than 16 inch mini led or the scar 18?
Thanks for the extensive tests! Currently I'm getting really annoyed with my Laptop performance, but it's partially the bad optimization for the games at fault, but I still suspect that my single core performance of my CPU is an issue. (Lenovo Legion with RTX 3080 and Ryzen 7 5800H). Games like Redfall, Anno 1800, Sons of the Forest, etc. were really having issues with frame rates. Is there any way to overclock the CPU at least a little bit?
Ryzen Master, PBO2?
@@sushimshah2896 doesnt work on laptops. if the OEM doesn't deploy their own control software u got no way to do it

Ordered the 17 for $800 less than the 18 with the same specs. Also seems like 17 has less or no coil whine compared to 18 as some say. Will see when it arrives in a day or two
Have you experienced any coil whine yet?

The 4080 is a scream as it is. I'm sure you will be thrilled with the 4090. I love the design of this laptop. Very stylish and subtle yet powerful when it needs to be.@@sosuslays
I think in gaming you're seeing the difference between older game engines and newer game engines, especially UE5 which puts a decent workload on the CPU and lumen and nanite in particular, and probably at greater resolutions it's a bigger workload on the CPU and GPU BOTH. So, the old view of greater resolution always means more work on the GPU, so much so that the CPU doesn't matter just isn't true anymore. It's not true for desktop now as the 4090 is showing. The CPU is making more difference.
In fact even NOW there isn't a CPU that exists that can keep up with the 4090 in all situations, even at 2K and 4K. In some games you're not hitting a GPU bottleneck, but you are with CPUs paired with the 4090.
Can you do a 2023 Ryzen 7 vs i7 comparison?
Which one is better Scar 16 or Zephyrus M16 (both with rtx 4080 & mini LED displays)? Which one has better cooling and performance? Make a comparison video pls.
