Installed CPU and GPU

CPU-Z:

Installed as the CPU in the XMG NEO 17 is an Intel Core i9-13900HX. It features 36 MB of cache and a boost of up to 5.4 GHz. It has 32 threads from 8 dual-threaded P-cores and 16 single-thread E-cores. It has a overall base power of 55 W and a maximum Turbo Power of 157 W.


Memory on the NEO 17 is the user's choice. You can have plain 8 GB 4800 MHz modules, or go up to 5600 MHz with 16 GB sticks, if that's what you are after, as I am.

GPU-Z:

For GPUs, first we find an onboard Intel UHD Graphics for 13th Gen Intel Processors, the IGP from the Intel Core i9-13900HX CPU. It's maximum frequency is 1.65 GHz. There are several discrete GPU options you can choose from. For me, the Intel CPU is paired with an NVIDIA GeForce 4090 GPU, but other options like an RTX 4060, RTX 4070 or RTX 4080 are possible. The RTX 4090 GPU features 16 GB of VRAM. The power draw of the RTX 4090 GPU is 150 W typically, with a 25 W boost available, taking it up to a maximum of 175 W. That 330 W PSU almost seems a bit under-powered for this platform, and under extreme high loads, is sure to be near its limit.
