Heating and battery life
We owe you the second part of the tests for Zephyrus Duo. In addition to encryption, encoding, tests of memory and SSDs, this article provides detailed performance evaluation under Nvidia OptiX interface, display measurements, and most importantly, an in-depth analysis of operational characteristics. Heating, power and clock management are captured for the first time in detailed flowcharts across all modes (Turbo, Performance and Silent).
Heating and battery life
The maximum CPU and GPU temperatures are not among the lowest, but it should be noted that in this case it was more or less fluctuations in the maximum boost time and then the temperature dropped to lower values, which we will show in a moment when we compare modes and extended Blender tests.
The battery life, which is over 3 hours, was a pleasant surprise which is not really a habit with ultra-powerful gaming machines. After all, the Omen X 2S didn’t even manage 2 hours… With the second display turned off, less brightness and office work, you could get to 5 hours, but it’s definitely not an ultrabook with 10 hours of endurance.
