It comes in 4 configurations: CPUs Core i9-13900HX, Core i7-13700HX, Core i7-13700H; graphics GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop, GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop, GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop. The fastest is i9-13900HX · RTX 4080 (score 47.65), the most basic i7-13700H · RTX 4060 (31.64) — the gap between them is what the extra money buys.

A laptop's score is the average of its CPU and graphics scores by our calculation, not a benchmark. Graphics are counted at their power (TGP) in this very laptop: the same RTX 4070 at 60 W is slower than at 140 W.

Real tests

What the test measures

Blender is a popular free 3D graphics program. The test makes the device render three ready-made 3D scenes (light, shadows, reflections) and counts how many render passes it finishes per minute. The higher the number, the faster the device handles heavy work: 3D, video editing, photo processing. On a CPU the test loads all cores at once, so it shows the chip's full power; on a graphics card it shows its compute strength.

CPU rendering (Blender)

faster than 91% of tested · runs: 105

faster than 78% of tested · runs: 23

faster than 58% of tested · runs: 37

GPU rendering (Blender)

Median of real test runs on users' computers. It does not show FPS in games. Data updated: 31.10.2026. For laptops: the typical result of this CPU and GPU across different laptops, not adjusted to this model's power limit.
