  That was the most painful nVidia conference I've ever witnessed. 2 hours to announce a branding program for other companies' laptops. Literally rebranding laptops. Painful. Time for bed.

  htey meant 'super irrelevant'
  The way its meant to be pissed

  So this was all that came out of that "Super" presentation they had? Jeez.

• Ryan Smith - Monday, May 27, 2019 - link

  No. This is unrelated to the Super teaser. Whatever that is, that's still coming.

  Good to know, thanks :)

  Some minor speculation: the Nvidia "super" teaser pointed specifically to this event. Could it be that they had two plans, one if AMD presented their new GPUs, and one if they only teased them, and that they thus held off as all AMD did was outline some very broad features? It would make sense if the "super" thing is a 2070 Ti or some such (ideally coupled with a price drop, like with the Pascal generation), but it wouldn't make sense to launch that two weeks before AMD (that would give AMD time to adjust, after all). Might be going out on a limb, but it doesn't sound unlikely to me.

  Though as useless as it is, I wished they had included display quality as a parameter in their branding.

  "100% sRGB, 300 nits, DeltaE <2"
  They have included color reproduction.
  What else would you like?

  this is even more laughable than the intel 9900 kys edition.

  The next step is the 'Super Studio' range which comes with a branding iron hosting an outline of Jensen Huang doing a Fonz with a double thumbs up. Hey, now that's what I call branding.

  I hope the "1080p or 4K" are not exclusive requirements. That would exclude 3:2 displays and 16:10 displays. I assume "4K" really means UHD 3840×2160 displays, not the minimum 4096×2160 studio editors need to see to the edges of 4K cinema.

  Very few creators can make use of those RTX cores. If they do, they'd do it on a workstation.

  yeah that's true https://mcdvoice.dev/

  Any word is AMD CPU's are explicitly excluded? If a manufacturer wanted to pair a high end AMD CPU and an NVIDIA GPU, could it still qualify?

• Ryan Smith - Monday, May 27, 2019 - link

  An AMD CPU is not part of the minimum specification. So it looks to be Intel-only, for now.
  
  (Realistically, AMD's first-gen mobile APUs were not competitive here; hopefully the 7nm stuff changes that!)

• KBah - Wednesday, May 13, 2020 - link

  I do hope so. My dream notebook would be the latest AMD 7nm paired with Nvidia gfx.

  2060 & 1080 are *NOT* "high-end". Certainly not for the gaming / studio class. They are low end fetching a high(er) price tag.
  I would like to see a re-surgence in 2K resolutions for those are the sweet spot between 1080 and spec-demanding 4K. (I'm in the market for high end notebook).
  
  Also, User "Gc" is correct - 4096 (x2160) should be (hopefully?) the minimum requirement and not the 3840. His reasons have been stated.
