Hey guys,

Check it out!

So, I decided to try and play Dirt 4 on my new Hp laptop. It has the AMD Ryzen 7 3700U processor and Rx Radeon Vega 10. Although, I only have 8gb of ram and 512GB of storage. All these new games are pretty big in size. That's why I always say if you can get the bigger 1 or 2TB if possible. If not, you have to choose which games to install and maybe delete them once you finished playing.

Right up, when the game starts, it began to stutter. I checked the game custom set to Ultra-high. I remembered playing this game on my gaming pc. So, maybe that's where the setting came from. I forgot as I'm downloading from my STEAM account. I'm really surprised, as I thought, the AMD graphics card would at least be on par with my pc GTX 1060 graphic card. Apparently, not.

Ok, blame it on me not doing my research. I didn't actually buy this laptop to play games. If not, I would have got a gaming laptop. But, most of them are out of my budget. But, of course, me being curious, I tried and lowered the settings and it had to go really low. In fact, Ultra-low. Even then, it still stutters. That's why I was really, really surprised. How good is an AMD laptop?

I went for a quick search and found this website that shows the real benchmarks that Vega 10 isn't a match for the GTX 1060. Almost, half of its capabilities. It even states that most games you can play are set to minimal settings. Well, that explains the ultra-low settings I had to set to be able to play the game. Kinda a disappointment. I thought I could at least play on medium.

Once again, if or when I have the money, I want to get the Asus Rog Zephyrus G14 with the anime led lightings. Why aren't any other computer company doing this? Don't get me wrong, I actually like the HP 5s laptop. I love the size, the full backlit keyboard, and the sound which is pretty loud when gaming. I don't think, you actually need a headphone to enjoy the great sound effects.

Earlier, I tried to download and play Modern Warfare Warzone free multiplayer game and I'm surprised how smooth the gameplay is. I didn't even have to set up anything. The game set itself up, so I don't have to dabble with the settings and just play. If this laptop has a better graphic card, I would have been very satisfied. For now, I'm just happy to have a new laptop for my basic usage and occasional gaming.

If you have the money to blow, you'll want the specs above. One thing for sure, you won't have to worry about the minimal settings for a long time. And, with 2TB of storage space, download as many games as you want. Although, now I prefer the 15.6-inch widescreen and the full keyboard of my HP 5s, the G14, 14 inches will make it a little more portable.

The portability makes you want to bring it everywhere you go. Of course, without the internet, it's just a brick. That's why I prefer buying a full game that you can play offline. All these online streaming, makes you stuck to a desktop or your home. And, you have to keep paying for stuff that supposed to be already in the game. Read my past blog post and you'll know I hate this kind of 'free-to-play' game.

I think the G14 design is very modern yet a low-key design for today's gamer. As I've said before, that's part of the reason I got the HP 5s. It has a similar silver color and backlit keyboard as the G14. AMD Ryzen laptop seems to be popular as my unboxing video already has hundreds of views. Maybe, I thought, I'm the only one that's interested in the G14 design?

HP should upgrade their laptop specs to Ryzen 10 with RTX 3090? If they aren't already working on it. Yeah, I'm crazy. Lol. Who knows, they can actually do it. Haven't the Ryzen 9 already been a year? If not, it sure seems so long ago that a Ryzen 9 laptop appeared. I hope they include the anime led lights for the new laptops. It's fun to play with led lights. 

Able to play Dirt 4 only after setting it all to ultra-low.

Even in ultra-low, the graphics aren't that bad. You can slowly adjust up a bit here and there to improve the graphics. This laptop is definitely for the budget-conscious but also want the ability to play some of the latest AAA games. Albeit, with the lowest of settings.

*Update: After dabbling with the AMD Radeon software, updating my windows 10, and lowering the resolution, I can now play the game on custom low-medium. Now, it plays pretty smoothly and the graphics aren't that bad either. 

I guess, the Radeon X Vega 10 isn't that bad after all. That is after you play around with the graphics setting.
