Framework brings AMD mainboards to its 13-inch laptop |
https://www.engadget.com/framework-brings-amd-mainboards-to-its-13-inch-laptop-140050567.html?src=rss
|
Framework has slowly broadened its product portfolio to include a gaming laptop and an AMD variant of its inch productivity notebook After an initial manufacturing hiccup earlier in the year it s the latter that s finally ready to reach eager pre order customers as new mainboards make their debut Like every other Framework release you can pick them up as a pre built laptop or as the parts for you to upgrade an existing model There are some differences both in how they re set up and what they can do but don t expect a revolution This is still a Framework after all and it can do more or less the same thing it s always been able to HardwareGiven Framework s emphasis on building a stable platform for its modular laptops there are no changes here Pop the hood and you ll only notice a few differences like a plastic retainer on the WiFi module rather than a metal one but that s it At this point I feel confident enough that I could swap out a mainboard without having to consult a manual Framework s adopted the Good Better Best mode with its specs with the base model packing a Ryzen U with a Radeon M iGPU GB RAM and a GB SSD The middle tier unit I m testing has a Ryzen U with Radeon U GB RAM and a GB SSD Fancier types who opt for the flagship get the same Ryzen U as the middle tier albeit with GB RAM and a TB SSD The only other difference is with batteries The base model will ship with the older Wh battery while the other two get the newer Wh model That said the company has also wheeled out new HDMI and DisplayPort expansion cards for more power efficient video outputs Those will be coming to all new laptop orders in the near future but make their debut here with the AMD editions Upgrades and CompromisesNaturally the point of Framework s platform is that if you already have one of its notebooks you can just swap in the AMD mainboard Although that process isn t as simple as it is when you re swapping out an Intel model for one of its successors Your existing RAM and WiFi modules will not work with the AMD board so you ll need to get new DDR DIMMs and an AMD made WiFi module like the RZ which is what Framework bundles in its prebuilt editions Much as the laptop s design remains the same there are more differences on the inside which is where it counts If you don t know each mainboard has a quartet of USB C ports that stick out of the laptop s deck Each one corresponds to an Expansion Card slot letting you slide in a specific port depending on your needs for that day So you can pop out your second USB C port in favor of a HDMI or DisplayPort out the day you have a presentation to give On Intel s side of the fence this is a stress free experience because all four ports are the same Since the th generation board all four support Thunderbolt and USB each one with Gbps bandwidth up to W power draw and support for two Hz K displays Not to mention the standard enables you to add an eGPU to your setup for extra graphics muscle But things aren t as elegant on the AMD side because a Thunderbolt is an Intel standard and b AMD s portable silicon has some uh limitations Only the rear port on either side supports USB with the front two a mish mash of competing standards As you can see from the graphic the front left port supports charging USB and USB A while the front right offers USB and video out To make things worse there are no visible clues to remind you what each port can and cannot do for obvious design and uniformity reasons I don t blame Framework for having to deal with AMD s mess and it has been brave enough to foreground these compromises from day one But it s one of those issues where you ll either need to keep a mental record or face an error pop up when you ve plugged the wrong port into the wrong socket But then I doubt there are too many people who are looking to buy this laptop who will need regular access to a quartet of Gbps connections I suspect there won t be too many times AMD users are cursing the skies for the minor annoyance of swapping cards over It s just one of those situations where you wish users weren t left dealing with the consequences of two chip giants who won t play nicely PerformanceMuch as AMD may not have the silky uniformity and consistency of its rival chip giant it does have an ace up its sleeve Those integrated GPUs are far ahead of Intel s giving it enough grunt to push halfway demanding games without too much sweat It s worth saying as usual that this is first and foremost a productivity machine but with AMD on board it ll play just as hard as it works In the time I had with the hardware I played Grand Theft Auto V on high settings and got fps out of this machine Similarly Fortnite will crank out an average of fps with the settings on high easily enough to keep you amused on work trips or in your dorm room Synthetic tests aren t everything but suggest the AMD version comes out ahead in both single by a little and multi core performance by a lot compared to the equivalent Intel model The issue really isn t with the performance you can wring out of this machine but how much noise it ll make while doing it A common complaint from the earliest version of the Framework is the excessive fan noise when it s put under heavy load The mainboard fan really wasn t designed to cope with the high loads you might expect to want to put it under making a sound I will describe as persistent and noticeable and often quite loud PricingWhen announcing the AMD boards Framework committed to price parity between Intel and AMD editions whenever possible The Base and Performance models on the entry and mid tiers cost and whatever chip you choose At the high end however there is a fairly big delta between the you ll pay for the AMD version and the asking price for the Intel edition Wrap UpIn the short time I ve had with the AMD edition I ve been impressed with what is now possible in this chassis The silicon out performs its Intel equivalent but it s all taking place in the same body with the same user serviceable design That s a big achievement and there are plenty of folks chomping at the bit to get one of these in their lives the first seven production batches are already sold out with an eighth on the way It remains undeniably a Framework so you will get the same flexibility and longevity that you ve come to expect but with a little bit more oomph

SteelSeries starts out strong with its first dedicated gaming microphones |
https://www.engadget.com/steelseries-starts-out-strong-with-its-first-dedicated-gaming-microphones-140041321.html?src=rss
|
The rise of streaming and the switch to remote work means that in the past few years more people are using mics than ever before Which in turns means that lots of companies are looking to get into the space and the latest entrant is well respected game accessory manufacturer SteelSeries Though the company s probably best known for its headsets it just might change that perception with its Alias and Alias Pro gaming microphones available today Upfront I ll admit I m not a streamer but I do make regular use of a microphone in both podcasting and regular Dungeons amp Dragons sessions on Discord And like so many during the pandemic I found myself in an endless array of remote meetings over Zoom Google Meet Microsoft Teams WebEx and whatever else companies want to throw out there Even in the year it s a pain in the ass My go to mic for the past few years has been the Elgato Wave which I admire for its excellent audio and solid build quality But in use it hasn t always been a dream weirdly enough I never got it to work properly with USB headsets even those made by its parent company Corsair And switching between apps even with the Elgato software installed wasn t always a smooth process I ve started so many meetings with my computer outputting to the wrong device usually the internal laptop microphone which as you can imagine is crap SteelSeries looks to simplify all that with its GG software which automatically works with all SteelSeries hardware I plugged in the Alias and it was detected immediately I didn t have to adjust the settings in any app or on my system Within seconds I was on a call with a friend on Messenger and Discord automatically made the adjustment on its own as well In I would expect audio software should just work and GG fits the bill It has lots of built in customization for things like lighting so you don t have to be a programmer to make your setup look cool It also lets you set levels program by program with multiple outputs so you can have what your stream hears be different from what you hear on your end It s just a good level of control that allows professionals as well as amateurs fine tune their stream to their liking Kris Naudus for EngadgetOf course solid software wouldn t be anything without the hardware to back it up and the Alias and Alias Pro are high quality extremely attractive microphones to have on your desk They re both oblong pills suspended by elastic cords in a ring shaped stand It s easy enough to remove and mount on a boom arm and both models of the Alias come with a clip to attach it to your existing arm or you can purchase one from SteelSeries From there the two mics have different features the entry level Alias has a volume dial and mute button right on its front while the Pro outsources those to the included mixer which requires external power it comes with an AC adapter The mixer has two dials which can be customized in the GG software and two buttons for muting mic and headset audio They feel extremely nice to push The biggest difference however is where the Pro gets its name from and that s the XLR connection in the back That s a higher end connector than most users will need but professionals looking to add a speciality gaming microphone into their mix will appreciate it The mixer also comes with two USB ports so you can do dual PC streaming As I am not a professional audio person I stuck with the regular Alias which connects to your setup using USB C It also has a single headphone jack for plugging in a headset and I appreciated the mic stand design for keeping the cords tidy When you plug in the mic it ll start working right away you ll know because the front of the mic is outfitted with LED lighting that will show your levels If the single bar of lights rises into the red you know you re clipping When the mic is muted a big red X is displayed on the surface so there s absolutely no question about the state of your recording Kris Naudus for EngadgetIn chatting with friends and family over various chat programs the reports I got was that my audio was clear and loud though one podcasting friend did think I did sound a little off at times ーpossibly because I got too close to the mic At a normal distance I sounded fine By my own reckoning through headphones I thought it sounded great ーon par with the audio I get from the Elgato Wave though a little more sensitive as it picked up the occasional ambient sound like my typing This isn t unusual when I m using a mechanical deck but in this case it was the spongier membrane keyboard on my laptop It can be mitigated by simply moving the devices further apart if you have the space to do so Overall I think it s a good piece of hardware to have on my desk one of those accessories that makes you excited to record a stream podcast or anything else you can imagine You don t need good tools to start creating but the SteelSeries Alias is one of those that makes you want to make something because it s such a delight to use This article originally appeared on Engadget at |
