Chinese vendor debuts world's first AMD Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 laptop, but 192GB LPDDR5X-8533 for gaming? Really??
SIXUNITED's new laptop pairs an AMD AI chip with 192GB of memory, aiming squarely at AI workloads over casual gaming
Chinese manufacturer SIXUNITED has unveiled what it claims to be the world's first laptop built around AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 Gorgon Halo processor. The device, named AXN88B-160M-YD, boasts an impressive 192GB of LPDDR5X-8533 memory, a feature rarely found on portable computers. This memory capacity, rated at 8,533 MT/s, raises questions about its practicality for a laptop meant for portability.
The laptop features a 16-inch display with a 2560 x 1600 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, wide color gamut coverage, and the ability to rotate up to 145 degrees. It also includes two M.2 2280 SSD bays running on PCIe Gen4, connectivity options like Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, multiple USB ports, an HDMI 2.1 output, and a 2.5GbE RJ-45 port.
The chassis, built from metal, houses a full-key RGB backlit keyboard, a fingerprint sensor, and weighs approximately 2.1kg. The laptop features a dual battery system rated at 99.9Whr and 85Whr combined. While this laptop seems like a powerhouse for AI workloads and professional software, its 192GB of shared system memory and power delivery of 120W indicate it's more aligned with workstation use than gaming.
This configuration, priced around $10,000, seems more suited for developers and researchers than casual gamers.
