    Not a big enough difference to be made if you got the late 2019 model (which I have been daily driving a while now). The only difference is the 4000mhz faster GDRAM and the rest of the gpu is identical to the normal 1650. I'd like to see a vbios flash on the 2019 model to see what kind of power we could eek from these...

    This is what I get with a small memory OC and +50mhz core bump:

    Late 2019 Stealth BIOS Modded makes the CPU almost as fast as a i7-9750H (6-core) and obliterates in single thread:

    Hope they fix the awful keyboard layout.

    I def agree with you there... the right shift key location is garbage.

    I can't tell you how many times I've tried an in-store demo of the Stealth and I have to say that 95% of the time I miss the right shift key and hit the up arrow instead. It is absolutely not a laptop I would recommend for anyone with smaller hands/shorter fingers.

    Notebookcheck said on CES they’ll update the cpu and display on stealth as well but cpu remains same, like Apple butterfly keyboard that received a lot critical blade lines shift key also got a lot critic so it’s stupid if they keep it since 15 one is changed. Curious if the new display option would be right, like 120Hz. Maybe for triple A it’s too much for the gpu but for some shooting like OW, CSGO and some indies current display might be garbage.
    If talking about OC don’t be hesitant increasing triple that core values ;), you can beat that default 1650ti maxq with some silicon lottery luck.
