2022 models featuring several Thunderbolt connections
2022 models featuring several Thunderbolt connections
I'm switching from my 9900k/RTX 3080 to a 12th gen Intel or 6th gen AMD laptop since those are almost the same as my current desktop setup.
Next generation graphics cards in enclosures will still outperform what I have now, so upgrading makes sense and gives me the portability I need.
Currently I use 4k/120hz (LG C1 with HDMI 2.1 only) plus 1440p/60hz displays.
This creates a challenge and I’m looking for a way to solve it.
Based on what I know, I should get a Thunderbolt 3 (ideally version 4) enclosure along with USB-C that supports a display. Or several Thunderbolt ports.
I haven’t found any portable laptops with these features, at least not ones that are lightweight.
I checked the Asus Flow X13 which fits well but lacks Thunderbolt.
The Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 360 offers both Thunderbolt and USB-C (though I’m unsure about the display output), but it has a weaker CPU, much weaker GPU, and only 16GB RAM (which is enough for photo editing but not for 32GB).
I prefer a full desktop replacement that 2022 laptops are offering.
What suggestions do you have?
You didn't mention your location, your budget and your preferred site for purchase. I took the liberty to look up on Newegg, assuming you're in U.S.A(or close to it) and the budget was unlimited, whereby the only constraint was that it had Thrunderbolt4 on it, is new and was in the 12th Gen range of processors by Intel.
Here's a shortlist
