TEAM SGG PATREON   / somegadgetguy   Geekom A8 Review! Geekom updated their newest mini PC frame with an AMD 8945HS! This thing is a BEAST. CPU and GPU performance are very similar to the last gen 7940HS laptop chip, but now with a bit more NPU "AI" performance.
Funnily enough, it seems Microsoft is throwing AMD and Intel under the bus. NONE of the current "AI" PCs sold are powerful enough to earn the new "CoPilot+" branding. Still, with a more powerful NPU, we can see some great improvements to content creation and video editing plugins.
Who knows, maybe you don't want that new Microsoft Recall feature on your system anyway?
