1. Remove the bottom plate

To get inside this laptop you first need to undo two Phillips-head screws located on the back, and two on the bottom panel. Then, pull the plastic shroud. After that, undo all 10 Phillips-head screws left on the bottom panel, and pry it with a plastic tool.

2. Battery

Inside, we see a 45Wh battery pack. It lasts for more than 6 hours of either Web browsing or video playback, which is not a great result. To take it out, unplug the battery connector from the motherboard, and undo all 4 Phillips-head screws that keep it in place.

3. Memory and storage

Remove the metal shroud to access the two SODIMM slots. They work with DDR5 modules and we are pretty confident that you can fit up to 64GB in total. Storage-wise, there are two M.2 PCIe x4 slots. The 42mm one supports Gen 4 drives, while the 80mm one is limited to Gen 3 SSDs.

4. Cooling system

In terms of cooling, two heat pipes are shared between the CPU and GPU, a third one meant for the processor, plus a total of four heat sinks, and two fans. Furthermore, there are heat spreaders cooling the VRMs and the graphics memory.

Aangezien we de versie met Team Blue al hebben bekeken, gaan we nu kijken of het AMD model beter is. En in de toekomst gaan we een diepgaande vergelijking maken tussen de twee, en mogelijk enkele concurrenten in dit segment van de markt.Wat kun je verwachten van deze laptop? Nou, hij heeft een veranderd uiterlijk, dat nu erg doet denken aan de Legion-serie. Natuurlijk is de assemblage v[...]
