I'm just happy to see that they have started discounting these new Renoir laptops. It's only going to get better!

Edit: I guess the TufA15 has bad design for thermals too

Not many gaming laptops are touchscreen. Just not really the audience, it's all about high refresh rate
This model is coming with one of the fastest CPUs in the market right now but like I always say a good CPU is only one part of the equation, the whole package is more important. It has highest GPU Nvidia allowed for AMD motherboards. But this chasis is simply too small to handle heat generated from CPU+ GPU. Fans are weak and loud. Has software issues. Screen has ghosting issues and so on. Still it was very hard to find one when it first released despite being overpriced.
The second let down was another over hyped Dell g5 15 se which is simply not good enough.
MSI bravo, Lenovo Legion 5 and HP Omen Renoir versions were all like a joke to be honest. Asus a15 is relatively better option for Renoir chips right now. We will see how new Acer nitro and eluktronics r15 perform between this options.
There's simply no well built option between new AMD laptops right now. There are some rumors Walmart gaming laptops might come out with Renoir models which is highly likely cos there are a lot of tongfeng designs for new AMD chips circulating in Asian websites. Their offer might be a real option cos their chasis known for its good thermal management.
