Computex 2019, one of the world’s biggest Tech Convention is currently ongoing in Taipei, Taiwan. Asus, Dell and MSI amongst other companies have announced praiseworthy products at the event (1, 2, 3). American technology company and chip designer Nvidia has also unveiled a new laptop lineup which carries the ‘Studio’ moniker. 

Clearly, the new laptops are intended to compete against Apple’s freshly upgraded MacBook Pro 15. However, in addition to powerful processors, the Nvidia Studio laptops target creative professionals who require more GPU power whilst on the go. Therefore the laptops will be kitted with RTX GPUs sold by the company. Noteworthy, Nvidia would not retail in-house developed laptops under the lineup. Instead, the company has set up a minimum specification requirement for OEMs that want their offerings to be part of the RTX Studio lineup.

Following are the requirements set by Nvidia. In terms of GPU, the laptops under the lineup need to be fitted with either Quadro RTX 5000, 4000, 3000 GPUs or GeForce RTX 2080, 2070, 2060 GPUs. The laptops also need to have a display with at least 1080p resolution with a preference for 4K. It needs to have at least 512 GB of SSD storage and 16 GB of RAM which will provide it with a smooth and lag free experience. Furthermore, the laptops under the RTX Studio lineup need to implement Max-Q Design technology which is specifically developed for building lightweight and thin laptops.
