  • Dave2D review of the new 17" ROG Strix GL702ZC. The best laptop from ASUS for multi-core applications with it's new 8-core CPU!
    Purchase Here - amzn.to/2zK2CeL
    ASUS’s new ROG Strix GL702ZC laptop is pushing the boundaries of laptop CPUs. This monster has 8 cores from the AMD Ryzen 7 1700 CPU and the Radeon RX 580 with 4GB of GDDR5 VRAM. This graphic card performs similar to the GeForce GTX 1060. All models come with a matte Full HD display with FreeSync for a smooth viewing experience. If you’re looking to video edit or run applications that use all 8 cores, prepare to be blown away.

    If Mac Pros were overpriced, Ryzen made that 400% more noticeable. Many editors/designers are switching to Ryzen or even Threadripper and not looking back at intel/apple.

    when explaining cores mentioning the numbers of threads is crucial. Hyperthreading really works and it boosts multithreaded performance from 30 to 100%, not negligible.

    • @King_Kong_Song
      @King_Kong_Song 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      IMO, Envy 17 is pretty solid too, just because the dedicated GPU.
      It's a bit big though. Idk why they stopped putting dedicated GPUs in the 15.

    • @legion637
      @legion637 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Kim Jong Skill I've seen the Envy 17 in stores. Just because it has a dGPU doesn't make it solid. A 15w CPU in that size is ridiculous, and plastic build is ridiculous...

    • @King_Kong_Song
      @King_Kong_Song 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I haven't seen the new ones in any stores, but at this point, I just expect a plastic build from HP.
      I have a 2013 Envy, it's mostly plastic. I've seen the 2016 ones in stores, they're an improvement, but the bottom is still plastic. (At least they decided to paint it that time.)
      I didn't see the 15w CPU, but that doesn't bother me even after looking at it. Looks like a huge upgrade from the AMD A-10 that I currently have.

    Great video! Can you ask HP for one of the new HP Envy x360 laptops with the AMD Ryzen 5 2500U? It's a Raven Ridge APU and I would love to see how it performs!

    • @IDK-eu7dv
      @IDK-eu7dv 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not raven ridge, those are for desktops and will come out in 2018. This is Ryzen mobile, completely different...

    • @PeterNjeim
      @PeterNjeim 6 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      IDK 700, this is why I don't like talking about computer hardware in a non-hardcore component channel. You are wrong, Raven Ridge is Ryzen + Vega APU's for both mobile and desktop. The U series Raven Ridge APU's are for laptops, and probably the X series (not known yet) will be for desktops. I can't believe someone as ignorant as you would say such a thing, literally just search "AMD Raven Ridge" and see for yourself lol.

    • @IDK-eu7dv
      @IDK-eu7dv 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Peter Njeim OMG just because it has Ryzen/Vega branding doesn't mean it has the Ryzen/Vega architecture. I'll pull up some web links if you need me to.

    As a software developer I am considering this beast as a mobile workstation. If it doesn't take much time to compile and run tests, then there is no reason to start browsing internet while we're at it, and that could significantly improve my performance as a dev.
    I am imagining the moment when I bring this to my workplace first time. Red bag, red LEDs everywhere. But I decided that if I buy it, there will be no games on that laptop - unless I develop them myself.

    • @nameless4618
      @nameless4618 6 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      montgomery mchargue it's a CCG called Duelyst launched in 2016.
      What makes it stand out from other CCGs is the board : A combination of Hearthstone and Final Fantasy Tactics which adds an extra layer of depth and much more room for creativity and strategy. I highly recommend it if you want to get into card games (very newb friendly btw), best of all it's free!
      There has been a big update this 14 November which added a lot of cards and gamplay changes so this is a good opportunity to start playing if you're interested.
      If you're just interested in the artwork this might be to your liking:

    • @nameless4618
      @nameless4618 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It depends on what you consider as P2W. As a CCG, it is much more f2p friendly then other card games I played. For example, a card pack containing 5 random cards (at least 1 rare guaranteed, and on top of that, the drop rates for Epic/Legendary cards are pretty high) costs 100G.
      You get a daily free common card.
      2 quests rewarding 25-50 gold every day
      15 Gold every 3 wins (the winning player may choose to tip you 5G if you loose)
      Mystery crates containing cosmetics/cards/gold/orbs although you must buy the keys to open them with real money but you get 1 free key per month to open one so you can just ignore them.
      So you can easily buy at least 1 card pack a day by being a casual player and slowly build your deck. By the end of the month you'll have a couple of decent decks to compete with. And if you're a gifted strategist, you can compete in the top rankings without a single legendary.
      Of course there's also a luck factor, so if you've been cursed with bad luck by an evil spirit avoid any card game :P
      Personally, I've been playing this game since the open-beta in august 2015 so I've watched it grow. There have been a lot of changes since then but I found it very newb and f2p friendly. I'm able to compete in high ranks without having ever spent a single cent. In addition, it's backed up by a great community willing to help new players so if you have any doubts you can head to the forums ( forums.duelyst.com/ ) or to the discord server ( discordapp.com/invite/0WbpmyLbu52aphyb ) and ask anything you want.

      Yeah they could but it will be freaken expensive as hell. This laptop looks great for production, the 580 blazes with OpenCL in blender, and the CPU crushes handbrake and other renderers. It can game well on the side too, not the best but very capable with that Freesync display, butter smooth.

      DAMN is this an amazing deal for $1500!

    • @TexelGuy
      @TexelGuy 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's probably the worst deal in laptops ever. For that price you could get a laptop with a 1070, which blows away the 580 in literally every single way.

      Most people don't edit at 4K 60 fps, an i7 is enough for anything below that. I'll take a huge boost in graphics performance instead of slightly better productivity performance any day.

    As always, great video! The title, tough... it's not clickbait but it really looks like it. Would be nicer to see a "(Insert laptop name here) Review" or something similar. Just my opinion!

  • @MrUnknownPunk
    @MrUnknownPunk 6 ปีที่แล้ว +52

    why no love for the xioami notebooks? fuck macbooks, review the xiaomi notebook pro. that thing is just amazing for the price, but you have to reinstall the windows since it comes with windows in one language (chinese). after the reinstall, then it's awesome. it has a dedicated gpu too, best macbook killer, better than xps 13/15 imho, better battery life too.

      true. but not dave. i prefer d2d's reviews on laptops than ltt. if that's your logic, what's the point of having multiple tech youtubers, if having one would be enough.

    • @ne0n_n1nja32
      @ne0n_n1nja32 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It might just be because Dave reached out to them but they haven't replied yet. They are a Chinese company after all, so they might not know who he is, and he isn't as big as LTT.

    • @MrUnknownPunk
      @MrUnknownPunk 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      true. reviewers can't always get em for free. but i think LTT bought it themselves, or is affiliated with gearbest, since that's the link they have on the video. i just hope that D2D will review the unit tho, coz it needs more love imho. xioami makes great mid range phones, and are very innovative. china is on the move!!

      Lmao so true so though, but if you are deadset on an AMD platform, please do yourself a favor and buy the Helios 500, the Vega 56 is EVEN better, and I think the Helios 500 has Ryzen 7 2700, and you probably can upgrade to a Ryzen 3950x 12 core CPU, the cooling on Helios 500 is EXTREMEly capable!

    • @poypoygerminal6778
      @poypoygerminal6778 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      it doesn't slide, you have to take out the heatsink (and repaste) as the ram needs to be angled at 45 degrees or more inorder to secure it - based on experience

    I have seen this video over 10 times and I still love this laptop because I feel that is basically made for me, which is crazy, y can live with the extra weight and loud, for have the ryzen 7 which I love so much, and I think that is perfect for the one who can't choose between a desktop and a laptop and only have to choose one.

    Unless I am mistaken, no one makes a 350w AC Adapter, might just be a typo but it should be a 330w.
    Also no mention of possible CPU manipulation, overclocking or downclocking, max RAM speeds, storage etc, the things that Ryzen users are concerned with. The other important issue with the laptop is the 4GB VRAM limit. For a laptop like this you want to keep for the long haul and 4GB VRAM is quite limiting.
    I do agree that the panel should at least be color accurate though, unless your editing on one machine and shipping to this one for render, but that doesnt make much sense either...

    As a desktop replacement is basically edit the heavy stuff on the go (hotel room, etc) and also hook it up to a 1440p/4k monitor for accurate colors.
    Editiing on a tiny ass 17-19" is quite moronic specially at home.
