Core X (w/wo chroma) advises please

Bump. Anybody ?

Well the Blade Stealth has a Quad-Core-Processor. And if you do have the Stealth with Intel Iris Graphics then there will be a benefit. But as I said it has a Quad-Core-Processor so it could happen that your CPU bottlenecks your system.

Is the Core X still a thing in 2020 ? In the sense that "are newest blades enough for next gen game like CP2077" ?

Sure, because you can use nearly any desktop GPU where as the 13" laptop is only running a GTX 1650 (at best). From what I've read the 1650 is a good gpu, but modern games will need to have the details toned down and you still may be dropping frames. I think Rise of the Tomb Raider is an example where its not able to maintain 60fps (I could be wrong, as I'm going on memory)

- I have read about physical limitations regarding the lightning connection and that it doesn't give much of a boost at the end of the day. is there an update of the Core X in the works ?

I'm pretty happy with the performance - I'm not sure what you mean

- All in all what would be the benefit of a Core X if you have, lets say, a blade 13 (2020) ?

Yes, of course, because desktop GPUs are faster then laptop GPUs I have a Core X Chroma with an RTX 2060 Super and its faster than my Razer Blade Advanced (running a 2070 Max Q). Its also a lot quieter and produces less heat.

Yes, in any case the Core X is a great thing. Currently, Razer is more likely to finish the Tomahawk, which is supposed to come this year, as a major upgrade of the Core series. And yes, if you put a decent graphics card in there, it makes more sense than the most expensive Razer laptop. The desktop cards are always more powerful than the small ones from the notebooks.
