Key to that is Dynamic Boost 2.0, an AI-tuned algorithm that operates on the fly, dynamically balancing power delivery to the GPU and CPU on a per-frame basis. Max Q represents a more holistic design philosophy than ever before, with OEMs having to work closely with Nvidia to ensure the best possible performance out of their systems with the green team's new chips. (Image credit: Nvidia) Nvidia Max Q 3rd Genīut with the third generation of Max Q laptops now hitting the shelves we're also getting refreshes of key technologies alongside the new GPUs themselves. Yes, we're finally getting 1440p panels in gaming notebooks, and this one is a rather lovely 240Hz beast.Ĭompleting the specs list is 16GB of dual channel DDR4 memory, running at 3,200MHz, and a 1TB WD SN730 SSD. That makes it all rather familiar except for the new GPU, except for the new screens. Speaking of the notebook chassis, it's the same GS66 Stealth surround from the last generation-most laptop makers have kept to the same designs for this round of laptops. Thermal constraints of a skinny chassis, and all that… Though in our testing, when it was pushed on all cores it stuck around the 3GHz mark on average. Paired with the new Nvidia GPU is a 10th Gen Intel Core i7 10870H processor, sporting eight cores, 16 threads, and a potential max frequency of 5GHz. It does come with that 16GB of VRAM, but realistically that is only really going to be of benefit to you if you're aiming to use the laptop for pro-level shenanigans such as video rendering and 3D modelling.
With the version of the RTX 3080 inside this MSI GS66 you're actually getting seemingly the lowest spec 16GB Max Q version, with a boost clock of just 1,245MHz and a maximum GPU power limit of 95W this is definitely a chip designed to go into the slimline chassis of the MSI machine without melting a hole in its brushed aluminium surrounds. In mobile trim the new RTX 3070 comes with 5,120 cores, putting it closer to the specs of the Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti (opens in new tab) in real terms. That also means it's only slightly more well-specced than the big boi RTX 3070 graphics card with 5,888 CUDA cores.
That also means we're looking at a GPU with only 6,144 CUDA cores inside it as opposed to the 8,704 in the GA102 chip in the desktop Nvidia RTX 3080 (opens in new tab).
