Seems more or less the same specs. HP has a better display (higher resolution and nits).
Thinkbook is a better processor... Ryzen 7 6800U.
HP is showing $680 before tax...
Thinkbook was $750 before tax...
Hmmmmmmm. Not seeing the $664 price though.
Did you use the coupon code?
Thanks for the info. HP Support's YouTube page has a how to video on parts replacement for the Aero 13 and within it they show you how to replace the NIC, so I'm hopeful it's replaceable on this one since it's an aero 13.
Am I crazy or is that a no brainer for 35 bucks more?
Does SCHOOLHP5 code work for military? I just tried but not working for frontline heros acct.

A Vega 6 in a 5600h actually outperforms (~20%) a Vega 8 from a 3500u. This is because the 5600h uses a smaller fab, and clocks the cores to a significantly higher frequency as a result. This makes it very difficult to compare the "same" GPU, even in stock configuration, as most benchmarking sites don't distinguish between these different "identical" configurations.

In which configuration is a vega 8 superior?
