Asus 901 And 1000 To Hit UK

If you’re in the UK and you’ve been salivating over the specs of the two new Asus Eee laptops, the 901 and the 1000, you won’t have long to wait before you can own one. The company has announced that they will both go on sale in Britain on July 1.

Both will be available with either Linux or Windows OS, and upgraded six-cell battery, and 1GB of RAM. The Windows 901 will have 12GB solid-state storage, the Linux model 20GB. Move up to the Eee 1000 and the Windows version has an 80GB hard drive, but 40GB for Linux. There will be 20GB free, encrypted online storage for both models.

Ryzen AI nearly hits 60 fps in Black Myth: Wukong, but it’s not that simple
OneXFly F1 Pro gamig handheld.

Although AMD APUs appear in some of the best gaming handhelds, the latest Strix Point chips are still hard to find in new releases. However, the new OneXFly F1 Pro gamin handheld is making its debut with the Ryzen AI HX 370 chip in tow, and according to a benchmark in Black Myth: Wukong, it managed to average an impressive 58 frames per second (fps) at a 15-watt thermal design power (TDP). That's an impressive result, but digging deeper reveals that AAA gaming on the go is still not without any sacrifice.

The OneXFly F1 Pro comes with the Ryzen AI HX 370, which sports a total of 12 cores -- four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c -- as well as 24 threads. The maximum boost clock on the Zen 5 cores reaches 5.1GHz, but the smaller Zen 5c maxes out at 3.3GHz. The default TDP was rated at 28 watts, but it can be configured between 15W and 54W. For an APU, the AI HX 370 delivers solid graphics capabilities, as it's equipped with the AMD Radeon 890M. It also sports a 7-inch OLED screen with a refresh rate of 144Hz.

In fact, you don't even need to go for one of the best gaming laptops on the market to get something relatively high quality.
