The hardware is fitted into a compact device with good ventilation. The cooling system is well-dimensioned and allows the AMD Ryzen 9 5900HXand the AMD Radeon RX 6600Mto work without limitations, even under maximum load. The manufacturer has already proven the use of good cooling units in other devices. Some issues remain in the selection of available ports. While the number of ports is satisfactory, the HDMI and DisplayPort ports sadly only support 2160p at 60Hz.
