- SIXUNITED builds laptop packing 192GB of LPDDR5X-8533 memory total
- It has some gaming specs but also screams AI workstation
- Two M.2 2280 SSD bays run on PCIe Gen4 for storage upgrades
Chinese manufacturer SIXUNITED has released what it calls the world's first laptop built around AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 "Gorgon Halo" processor.
The device, designated AXN88B-160M-YD, pairs the processor with an unusually large 192GB of LPDDR5X-8533 memory.
This memory capacity is rarely seen on a laptop, and it’s rated at 8,533 MT/s, raising questions about who actually needs such capacity in a portable computer.
