XPS 15 vs HP ZBOOK STUDIO G8

 Most laptops with a good amount of RAM don’t struggle being put through these paces, so I ran a 4K export test in Adobe Premiere Pro to give it more of a workout. It didn’t break much of a sweat here either, sprinting to complete the export of a five-minute, 33-second video in four minutes, 14 seconds. It’s worth keeping in mind that Premiere Pro can work in mysterious ways sometimes, with better specs not necessarily leading to faster export times. We’ve seen some less pricey laptops perform just as well in this test as the ZBook Studio G8, if not better, though this is a good result

It’s a simple but gorgeous laptop, yet I wouldn’t recommend this $4,727 configuration of HP’s ZBook Studio G8 to most people. The price is overkill if all that you want to do is game, and most people likely won’t need the robust suite of privacy and security features (like an Absolute persistence module, TPM 2.0, Bitlocker encryption, HP Power On Authentication, and much more) that are included to accommodate the enterprise crowd. There are some very good laptops out there suited for creators or gamers that we recommend

 You’ll be able to track its location via the Tile mobile app, so long as it still has battery life. If photography or shooting videos is a profession or a hobby, you’ll get good use out of this laptop’s full-sized SD card slot. It supports up to 985MB/s transfer speeds with the SD 7.0 spec

Well-designed, but far too expensive for most people

**LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE**

* **Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:**  
$2000AUD - $3000 AUD. Preferably on the lower end.
* **Are you open to refurbs/used?**  
\-fill here, remove dashes-
* **How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?**  
Performance is at the top of the list. I'll mostly be using it for uni (mostly power grid simulation and data analysis) so probably more emphasis on CPU performance than graphics. Would like to reserve the ability to play the occasional game though. Pretty keen on getting 32GB of ram and 1TB storage (or have the ability to upgrade) because I seem to be maxing out on both a bit. Dont care about form. Would prefer good build quality.  Battery life important but willing to compromise for performance.
* **How important is weight and thinness to you?**  
Fairly important, but happy to compromise on performance. As long as its not ridiculously heavy I'm good.
* **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.**  
15 in +
* **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.**  
I would like to occasionally be able to play a game. I usually play the new borderlands when they come out but probably wont do anything more demanding than that. I'll also be using the following programs for uni: powerfactory, vscode and matlab.
* **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?**  
As long as the computer can run the game I'm pretty happy.
* **Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?**  
Good keyboard would be nice.
* **Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.**  
tbh I'm not entirely sure what I should even prioritise for the way I'll be using it. I'm assuming I want big processor/big ram for running simulations but I could be wrong about that.

Looking for a reasonably high-performance laptop with 32GB of ram for &lt;$3000 AUD, Australia?

 The graphics unit represents the biggest leap. Although it still belongs to the entry-level segment, performance is practically doubled.

In review: HP ZBook Firefly 15 G8. Test device provided by: HP GermanyWith the upgrade to a Tiger Lake CPU and the new Nvidia Quadro T500, HP accomplishes one goal in particular, namely a significant increase in performance compared to the predecessor.

I am coming off a Surface Book. I'm looking for something that maintains that slick, minimalist look but is also high-performing for when I am editing, exporting, or uploading video. I would say that style is pretty high up there on my list of priorities. Unfortunately cannot go with a Mac as I run software for work that requires Windows. Any other questions, let me know and I'll be happy to respond! Thanks!

The ZBook Firefly 15 G8 can almost double its graphics performance with the new Nvidia Quadro T500. However, the cooling system reaches its limits under maximum load.HP leaves the design unchanged, which isn't a negative thing. However, the cooling system seems to slowly be reaching its limits, and there are also fluctuations in performance under prolonged load

In the last 5 years I've been through 2 gaming laptops, both from Dell and Sager. Both suffered from thermal throttling despite being 17" and assurances that from /suggestalaptop they had good thermals. Turns out they didn't (sager NP8177). I'm not interested in doing the whole importation and return shenanigans, so I'm wondering if there's a gaming laptop out there yet that will truly not throttle under heavy load?

I'm a heavy gamer, developer and AI researcher. I can push any computer to its absolute limits, even with 128GB ram, RTX 3080, whatever you throw at me. In saying that, I'm willing to compromise on the specs to ensure good thermals. Thermals are 100% more important to me than any other thing, I'm willing to sacrifice money and specs to have the guarantee of no thermal throttling under heavy gaming or development mode (playing high-res, high FPS games for hours on end, training large datasets in tensorflow, etc)

Budget is not an issue, I'm willing to spend $5k or so for something that will last a long time in terms of thermals. The only reason I'm discarding my prior two laptops is due to thermal issues, not spec issues. My research has led me to the MSI Titan series having good thermals in its 17" laptops. However, it seems all the configuration options for them are overclocked core i9s and RTX xx80's. This seems dangerous and asking for thermal throttling in my opinion.

Is there an option for an MSI Titan series with minimal specs? I was thinking an i7 with a 3070 or so, undervolted -100mv, no overclocking. Would this guarantee no thermal throttling under heavy load? Is there an alternative laptop in the $5k price range that will guarantee no thermal throttling under heavy load? Or do gaming laptop manufacturers still not take thermal throttling seriously? In which case I'll just bear it out with my current laptop and check again in a couple years.

Also, I do not care about the size of the laptop. It can be heavy and huge so long as the thermals are good.

Thoughts?

HP ZBook Firefly 15 G8 (2021)

Hello there! I am looking to this forum for advice. I am starting IT in College for four years, completing an advanced diploma along with a co op program. I need a laptop that is capable for this work, and will last me at least three years.

Here are the needs that it should fulfill:

Being able to handle programming languages like Java, Go, Javascript, C, C+ , C#, Rust, Scala etc, and tools such as SQL, Virtualbox, etc

Not too heavy so i can carry it as i will be doing a lot of walking between classes

A decent of storage so i can keep track of my college assignments and store any other things i need to,

A Gpu if it may need to handle any other 3d programs like matlab

**I have a budget of 2000 dollars maximum, and where i am shopping is in the Canada area.** 

Thanks for any help!

<li>How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? 
Form factor is the least priority, so long as it doesn&#39;t have a burden on my back. My previous laptop though, a dell g5 5587 was very heavy on my back and it kinda hurt a bit. Performance is the highest thing i need as i need it to handle Virtualbox, SQL, Windows Server Administration tools, programming languages like Rust, Java and Scala, etc.</li>
<li>How important is weight and thinness to you? 
Ideally i don&#39;t want something thats a bit too heavy on my back, but it&#39;s a bit important.</li>

N/A I don&#39;t really care.</li>
<li>Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. 
i need it to handle Virtualbox, SQL, Windows Server Administration tools, programming languages like Rust, Java and Scala, etc. Maybe some Roblox studio if i want to learn development over the course of college, and Blender too.</li>
<li>If you&#39;re gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

I just have one minor question. My father really wants me to go with an apple branded laptop as he says &quot;macs don&#39;t fail&quot;, however i made a good argument at dinner tonight that the majority of stuff in IT requires windows or performs best on Windows as that is what the majority of the corporate world uses. Should i go with Windows or Mac for this one?</li>
