This is also a Helios 500, but it's running AMD hardware. So it's running AMD's Ryzen 7 2700 as well as AMD's Vega 56 GPU. So once again, very powerful components stacked into a chassis that has been proven to be very good at cooling things. And what makes this laptop special, what makes it different is that this is an 8-core CPU. All the stuff from Intel this year, on their mobile stuff, is 6 cores. So i7, i9, they're all 6-core CPUs. Great CPUs, this is an 8-core CPU. So if you're running something that's CPU-dependent, this is gonna give you better performance. Now, I wanted to take a look at this thing just because I've seen how good the CPU is in desktop applications. I've run this particular CPU on severa
