Yeah I never really considered them before Ryzen, but even afterwards, it’s been very difficult to find one with the specs I want.
Comment on There is no fix for Intel’s crashing 13th and 14th Gen CPUs — any damage is permanent
Krauerking@lemy.lol 3 months agoHonestly I was and am, an AMD fan but if you went back a few years you would not have wanted and AMD laptop. I had one and it was truly awful.
Battery issues. Low processing power. App crashes and video playback issues. And this was on a more expensive one with a dedicated GPU…
And then Ryclzen came out. You can get AMD laptops now and I mean that like as they actually are nice.
But in 2013 it was Intel or you were better off with nothing.

Indeed, the Ryzen laptops are very nice! I have one (the 4800H) and it lasts ~8 hours on battery, far more than what I expected from laptops of this performance level. My last laptop barely achieved 4 hours of battery life.
I had stability issues in the first year but after one of the BIOS updates it has been smooth as butter.
