Great news for anyone who loves handheld gaming on a big screen! WIN Max 2 is featuring an ultra-narrow bezel 10.1-inch IPS screen with eye protection, 90% screen-to-body ratio, and fifth-generation Corning Gorilla Glass. Its native landscape mode set you free from all worries regarding aspect ratio compatibility issues with older games. It has a default resolution of 1920ร1200, a maximum resolution of 2560ร1600, 299PPI, and a relevant aspect ratio of 16:10.
All-metal Apple-style iron black unibody design made of 6061 aluminum-magnesium alloy with 36 precision CNC processes. The bottom shell is made of aviation-grade ABS synthetic resin to keep a cool and comfortable two-hand grip experience!
The RDNA3 architecture integrated graphics AMD Radeon 780M has a power efficiency improvement of about 50%. Compared to FSR 2.0, FSR 3.0 has nearly doubled gaming performance, with the latest AAA games running at over 60 fps per second at a resolution of 1920ร1200
Thanks to the significantly improved performance, the AMD Radeon 680M's graphic capacity can allows a great amount of AAA titles from the past two years run around 45~60fps with 1920ร1200 resolution.
In addition, RDNA2 also supports AMD's latest FSR 2.0 and RSR 2.0, which can generally increase the game running frame rate by 50% (even 100% for certain titles) without increasing power consumption by much.
The Intel version of WIN Max 2 comes with the1260P processor featuring 10nm process technology, 18MB L3 cache, 4 PerTest benchmark: AMD Ryzen 7 7840U / 16GB LPDDR5x-7500 MT/s / 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD / 1920ร1200 / Windows 11 Home 64bit
Unless specified otherwise, FSR is disabled by default during testing!
To play emulators smoothly, a higher performance CPU is required. With the support of the AVX-512 instruction set and the all-new RDNA3 architecture integrated graphics, emulators such as RPCS3, Yuzu, Citra, Vita3K, and Xenia can achieve up to 30% performance improvement.
The Perf
The GPD G1 eGPU is based on the mobile version of AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT with RDNA 3.0 architecture design, 13.3 billion transistors, 32 compute units, 2048 shader units, and 2 shader units per unit, actually totaling to 4096 shader units. The RX 7600M XT has 32MB Infinity Cache, 8GB GDDR6 VRAM, a base frequency of 1500 MHz, game frequency of 2300 MHz, and acceleration frequency of 2615 MHz, with TGP power consumption ranging between 75 โ 120W.
The GPD G1 has a compact appearance, with dimensions of 225 ร 111 ร 29.8 mm and a weight of only 0.92 kg. It features a built-in 240W small gallium nitride power supply and air-cooled heat dissipation.
The device has a rich interface, with Oculink and USB4 for connecting to the host device, one HDMI 2.1 and two DisplayPort for display output. In addition, it also provides three USB 3.2 and one SD card reader:
When using an Oculink (SFF-8611) cable to connect the GPD G1 and the host device, the HDMI and DisplayPort can be used for external displays, but the USB A and SD card reader will not work.
When using a USB4 cable to connect the GPD G1 and the host device, the HDMI and DisplayPort can be used for external displays, and the USB A and SD card reader will work.
When using both an Oculink (SFF-8611) and USB4 cable to connect the GPD G1 and the host device, the HDMI and DisplayPort can be used for external displays, and the USB A and SD card reader will work.
According to 3DMark tests, the GPD G1 scored higher in Fire Strike than the RTX 4070 PC version, and scored higher in Time Spy than the RTX 4060 Mobile version.
We tested the above games on WIN Max 2 2023 + GPD G1 and compared them with a PC configured with Ryzen 5 5600x + RTX 3070, both at a resolution of 2560ร1440. It can be seen that the FPS of most games tested on WIN Max 2 2023 + GPD G1 are higher than those of the latter.
Highly Efficient Intelligent Cooling Solution With A Large Turbo Fan And Dual Heat Pipe Design
WIN Max 2 comes with an improved PC-grade cooling system with a large turbo fan + dual heat pipes, which boasts high volume side air blow and highly intelligent speed control. When the internal temperature is lower than 40ยฐC, the fan speed will not exceed 20% of its maximum capacity. When the internal temperature reaches higher than 40ยฐC, the fan speed goes up in 2% PWM increments until reaching its maximum threshold (100%).
The traditional potentiometer stick that relies on the resistance brush to generate the voltage signal is prone to "drift" issues caused by wear and tear in long-term use. With WIN Max 2, we've introduced for the first time Hall Sensor sticks with built-in inductance coils. The working principle of magnetic induction (different magnetic fluxes are generated when the stick rotates to different positions, which in turn generates different voltage signals) determines that Hall Sensor sticks have no wear and tear, and therefore won't have the issue of stick drift! The sticks also adopt a stepless design for achieving 360ยฐ super-linear signal output without any dead zone.
The game controller built into the handheld gaming PC can make it unsuitable for the workplace! To solve this problem, we added two stick covers for WIN Max 2. The magnetic design ensures that the two covers won't fall off when using the device. When playing games, you can also stow the covers in the rear compartment, which helps prevent accidental loss!
AMD users, behold! The AMD version of WIN Max 2 has a USB4 port supporting up to 40Gbps transfer rate. The USB4 interface natively supports the Thunderbolt 3 protocol, so now you can play games with the AMD version of WIN Max 2 connected to a Thunderbolt 3 eGPU!
The Intel version of WIN Max 2 has a built-in Thunderbolt 4 port which can be used to connect to a more efficient Thunderbolt 4 eGPU!
For the unlimited expansion of storage space, in addition to an M.2 2280 slot already occupied by the machine's own nvme ssd, there is also an M.2 2230 slot on the back of the Max 2's motherboard. Both slots are based on the PCIe 4.0 ร 4 bus, with a theoretical throughput of up to 7.877GB/s. Due to restraints in terms of body thickness, both M.2 slots only support single-sided SSDs. The machine comes with a PCIe 3.0 SSD. If you want faster read and write speeds, you can replace it with a PCIe 4.0 SSD.
After the launch of the first-generation GPD WIN handheld, some users suggested we should add a 4G LTE module to the follow-up products, so that they can play online games anytime, anywhere. However, due to various constraints (internal space, heat generation, cost, etc.), we had been unable to add this feature in the past. This time, we finally did it, adding a 4G LTE module that supports 4G TD-LTE, FDD-LTE and 3G CDMA in WIN Max 2, which is comparable in performance to mainstream laptops and can be used in more complex scenarios.
Considering that some users may not need 4G capabilities, we have adopted a detachable module design, allowing anyone who needs a 4G connection to put the module into the slot on the back of the machine. The operation is very easy, just remove the cover and slot in the module and you are done!
High-speed SD And MicroSD Slots Added For Photographers/Players
To improve the typing experience, we've added a backlit keyboard that has 2 brightness levels to Max 2, allowing you to always see legends comfortably regardless of the ambient brightness. In addition, to address concerns about touch accuracy and improve touch input comfort, we've also added the Precision Touchpad driver for Max 2, which supports touch gesture customization with the Touchpad configuration tool that comes with Windows.
Thanks to its 2 AAC Super Linear Speakers with Double Amplitude Boost, WIN 3's sound performance is very well received by users! This time, WIN Max 2 is further upgraded with 4 super-linear speakers to achieve surround sound. And it also uses a high PSRR intelligent 4-channel amplifier with higher energy efficiency and lower noise. Whether watching videos or playing games, Max 2 can always bring you immersive and cinematic 3D surround sound!
WIN Max 2 has a built-in 2-megapixel camera with a maximum resolution of 1612ร1212. It boasts an ultra-wide viewing angle and a high refresh rate for a better live video conferencing experience.
With a higher capacity (67Wh) than all thin and light laptops on the market, Max 2 brings you the ultimate experience in terms of battery life. With only one full charge, the battery supports up to 14 hours of office work, 6~8 hours of local 1080P video playback, and 5 hours of gaming.
The included PD 3.0 100W super charger can charge the machine from 0 to 50% in about 20 minutes. A 5-minute charge can support up to 2 hours of work. Also, the charger supports all fast-charging protocols for phones and tablets, so it can be the only charger you carry when going out!
