Hi guys,



I'm new to community !



I'm currently standing in a place where I want to buy a portable laptop for my coding job.

I'm travelling quite a lot during the week but when I'm at Home over the weekend I like to relax and play games.(metro, tom



That's why I'm very interested in stealth 10gen. With few tweaks I'm able to create my work environment on windows 10 OS.



So now what's the best way go:

Should I go for 10gen with gtx 1650

or 10gen with irish and when I'm playing at home connect stealth to core x ?

I sold my old gaming rig and I kept rtx 2070 so card is there I'm just missing core X





Is core X or chroma working without any issues with stealth 10gen? (why chroma? extra usb ports) for gaming I'm using ultrawide screen so it would be always connected to chroma while coding or gaming at home.



I see also iris version is 25W vs 15W with gtx 1650. I'm assuming iris version got same cooling as gtx one right ?



Any advice would be very helpful.
The eGPU performance will not be quite as good on the 1650 model since the CPU is limited to 15W, so that's a consideration. If you want the best performance you can get while on your eGPU setup I'd go with a 25W model.



Honestly, a really wise choice may be the last-gen model with the MX150. It has a dedicated GPU, so you can still play some games on the go, and the CPU is going to outperform the 1650 model by a little bit while hooked up to the eGPU. It's also 300-400 dollars cheaper.

Hi there, welcome to the community!:smile_:

1065g7 on new stealth is 12 to 25 watt configurable tdp, it’s set to 15 watt most probably due the 1650 for thermal reason. Meanwhile base model that doesn’t have it has better cooling headroom so it can be set to 25 watt. However on egpu setting your Gtx1065 in a off, with some tweaks you can push the max cpu performance.

About iris plus mercury model it’s different cooling.

Iris plus



Gtx1650





It depends on how you need the performance on go, if iris plus enough than I’d go with base model saving some bucks for the chroma X. You can already check its performance on notebookcheck review.

Hope this help
