AMD compatibility
The laptop supports
AMD FreeSync technology and its more advanced varieties (FreeSync Premium, FreeSync Premium Pro). Here are more details about them:
– AMD FreeSync. This function is found only in models equipped with discrete AMD graphics cards. It serves to match the frame rate of the screen and the frame rate of the incoming signal so that the frequencies match. This allows you to avoid flickering, jerking and other image defects that occur due to signal desynchronization. This function is especially useful for games where the frame rate of the video signal can “float” depending on the load on the graphics core; in fact, most laptops with FreeSync are specifically gaming laptops.
– AMD FreeSync Premium. An intermediate option between the core AMD FreeSync technology and the advanced FreeSync Premium Pro implementation. The Premium version does not have HDR support (unlike Pro), but it works at the same frame rate (at least 120 fps at a resolution of 1920x1080) and uses LFC low frame rate compensation technology.
– FreeSync Premium Pro. The most advanced version of FreeSync technology, formerly known as AMD FreeSync 2 HDR. As the original name suggests, one of the highlights of this edition is HDR support. FreeSync Premium Pro claims a frame rate of at least 120 fps at Full HD resolution, as well as a low frame rate compensation (LFC) function. According to the creators, FreeSync Premium Pro works espec
...ially well in games; and many modern games are initially created to work with this technology.
NVIDIA video cards use a similar technology called G-Sync.Model
The specific model of the processor installed in the laptop, or rather, the processor index within its series (see above). Knowing the full name of the processor (series and model), you can find detailed information on it (up to practical reviews) and clarify its capabilities.
CPU speed
The clock speed of the processor installed in the laptop (for multi-core processors, the frequency of each individual core).
Theoretically, a higher clock speed has a positive effect on performance, as it allows the processor to perform more operations per unit of time. However, in fact, the capabilities of the CPU depend on a number of other characteristics — primarily on the series to which it belongs (see above). It even happens that of the two chips, the more performant in the overall result is the slower one. With this in mind, it makes sense to compare by clock frequency only processors of the same series, and ideally, also of the same generation; and the laptop as a whole should be judged by the complex characteristics of the system, as well as by the results of tests (see below).
TurboBoost / TurboCore frequency
Processor clock speed achieved in TurboBoost or TurboCore "overclocking" mode.
Turbo Boost and Turbo Core technologies are used by different manufacturers (Intel and AMD, respectively), but they have the same principle of operation: load distribution from more loaded processor cores to less loaded ones to improve performance. The "overclocking" mode is characterized by an increased clock frequency, and it is indicated in this case.
For more information about clock speed in general, see the relevant paragraph above.
CPU TDP
The amount of heat generated by the processor during normal operation. This parameter determines the requirements for the cooling system necessary for the normal operation of the processor, therefore it is sometimes called TDP - thermal design power, literally “thermal (cooling) system power”. Simply put, if the processor has a heat dissipation of 60 W, it needs a cooling system that can remove at least this amount of heat. Accordingly, the lower the TDP, the lower the requirements for the cooling system.
3DMark06
The result shown by the laptop processor in 3DMark06.
This test is primarily focused on testing performance in games — in particular, the ability of the processor to process advanced graphics and artificial intelligence elements. Test scores are reported as scores; the higher this number, the higher the performance of the tested chip. Good 3DMark06 results are especially important for
gaming laptops.
Passmark CPU Mark
The result shown by the laptop processor in the Passmark CPU Mark test.
Passmark CPU Mark is a comprehensive test that is more detailed and reliable than the popular 3DMark06 (see above). It checks not only the gaming capabilities of the CPU, but also its performance in other modes, based on which it displays the overall score; this score can be used to fairly reliably evaluate the processor as a whole (the more points, the higher the performance).
SuperPI 1M
The result shown by the laptop processor in the SuperPI 1M test.
The essence of this test is to calculate the number "pi" to the millionth decimal place. The time spent on this calculation is the final result. Accordingly, the more powerful the processor, the smaller the result will be (this SuperPI 1M is fundamentally different from many other tests).

Note that all the above models are discrete. Actually, for a configuration with discrete graphics, it is the model of a separate video adapter that is indicated; if it is supplemented by an integrated module, the name of this module can be clarified by the official characteristics of the processor.
It is also worth mentioning that this paragraph does not give the full name of the model, but only its name within the series (the series itself is given separately - see above). However, knowing the series and model, one can easily find detailed information about the graphics card.
