    It's perfectly in line with the official release schedule. ULVs and N series first - HQ/HK models and desktop in Q1/Q2 2018

    Geforce MX150 is on par with my GTX 860M
    https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDI...pecs-of-the-GT-1030-for-Laptops.223530.0.html
    My GTX 860M can play most games at 1080p , medium-high settings . Some light-weight games can run at 3200x1800
    This MX150 consume only 25 Watt which is much lower than mine, the future is looking good :)

    Edit : According to wiki , i5 8250U is a quad core CPU with HT enabled . So CPU should be fast enough to handle GPU like this
