any idea who is manufacturing eluktronics Prometheus XVII?

https://www.eluktronics.com/Prometheus-XVII/

 

From the specs it looks like either the Tongfang Intel or AMD model BUT the chassis is different, reminds me of the old Omen.

 

@XMG could you clarify the chassis used for the new NEO and PRO models?

 

I've seen the heatsink on the AMD CPU models has only two heatpipes over the CPU. That'll overheat quickly.

My question regarding the intel models is this: Do those models for 2021 have the same 3 heatpipe cooling system over the CPU like they did last year? Or are the AMD/intel models sharing heatsinks now?

 

A bit confused, the XMG site states 150w power envelope on the NEO 17 product page blurbs.

 

New review: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Schen...-laptop-review-El-Dorado-tuning.517577.0.html

The RTX 3070 is 125+15 apparently in Overboost mode

 

Im happy to see they fixed the webcam placement in Tongfang GM7MG0P, now we just need this with 5900hx or at least 5800h. It is strange eluktronics are starting to offer preorders of max 17 with 5800h in the older chassis rather than this one. I even remember Tom from xmg mentioning about reasons why they did not offer their variant of Max 17 last year and webcam placement was one of them.

Edit: My bad i checked again and eluktronics chasis is updated to this one.

 

If you find any other models and/or reviews, post them here, I'll update the thread.

 

I'm looking at the 3080, so i guess the 150w TDP is just gonna be 135+15.
