Introduction to HP’s Latest EliteBooks
This week, HP’s North American online store has introduced exciting new high-end EliteBooks. Among these, three models stand out, featuring AMD Strix Point APUs. These innovations have caught the eye of tech enthusiasts, particularly Hoang Anh Phu, who highlighted their impressive specifications.
Memory Capabilities and Transfer Rates
One of the most intriguing aspects of these new EliteBooks is their support for up to 128 GB of LPDDR5X memory clocked at an extraordinary 8533 MT/s. This transfer rate significantly surpasses AMD’s official figure of 7500 MT/s for the Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 APU in the EliteBook X G1A. This enhancement in memory capability has prompted discussions within the tech community.
Speculation and Pricing Insights
Despite the excitement, some press outlets have expressed skepticism regarding the reported specifications. There are theories suggesting that the product pages may contain placeholder information or inaccuracies. Analyzing the specs under the assumption they are legitimate, Phu noted that these models could utilize four 256 GB x32 modules, raising questions about current DRAM manufacturing capabilities. The launch for the EliteBook X G1A models is scheduled for March 14, with initial prices starting at $2749, climbing to an astounding $4299 for the flagship version entitled “HP EliteBook X G1A 14 Inch Notebook Next Gen AI PC Wolf Pro Security Edition.” The tech world eagerly anticipates more clarity as the release date approaches.
