Okay, so here’s the deal. There’s this tech wizard in China, Qingchen, who’s done something wild. Like, “how-did-they-even-think-of-that” wild. Picture this: a massive handheld gaming device with a 12.5-inch 4K screen. Yeah, you read that right. He took an Intel Core i9-14900HX and paired it with an Nvidia RTX 4090 Laptop GPU. Talk about tech overkill, right? But that’s kinda the beauty of it.
Now, AMD’s kind of the king of the handheld gaming world with their chips packing a punch in stuff like the Steam Deck. And Intel? They’ve played in this space before with MSI. But our friend Qingchen thought, “What if we mix things up a bit?” Enter Intel and Nvidia, stage left.
He crafted this masterpiece using a Tongfang chassis. If you’re scratching your head at that name, think of it like a chameleon — it’s the same thing you’ve seen with other brands but with a different name here.
The guts of this thing? Oh boy, it’s got an i9 CPU with mighty power paired with the RTX 4090. I can’t even wrap my head around it. Imagine a handheld that’s running heavy-duty games and not even breaking a sweat. I’ve seen laptops like the MSI Titan or the Alienware beast with similar guts, but they’re huge. So when you think about it, this handheld suddenly doesn’t feel so massive.
There’s a picture floating around — the images captured this thing in all its glory and it’s… wait for it… a work of art? Okay, maybe I’m going overboard. But still.
People might worry about heat with this setup, but apparently, things are staying cool enough. Like under 72°C while playing intense games. The rest of the specs? 64GB of RAM and a couple of 2TB SSDs. Now that’s future-proofing right there! Battery’s just 50Wh though, so maybe don’t stray too far from an outlet, unless you like living on the edge.
Looking ahead, Nvidia might churn out something similar minus Intel. Maybe with the Nvidia N1 or N1X in the next few years? Totally could be a game-changer. But AMD, beware! They’ve got their eyes on the future too.
If you’re a tech aficionado, buckle up! It’s going to be an exhilarating ride. Did I lose track of what I was saying? Oh, right — tech is crazy!
