(Pocket-lint) — It's safe to say that over the past few years we've seen a huge number of advancements when it comes to the tech that goes inside your laptops. You can now get a powerful, portable laptop from a host of manufacturers, and it doesn't have to cost the earth either. 

If you haven’t noticed, there's been a major update in graphics performance, especially from Nvidia's most recent GeForce RTX 30-series GPUS. 

So if you're still rocking a laptop with the GTX 10-series model, there's a very good chance you'll experience a big boost and you don't have to spend a fortune to get that performance upgrade. 

If, for instance, you go with an RTX 3060 laptop like this Gigabyte G5, you can spend as little as £799 and benefit from the latest technology. So exactly what has been improved since the 10-series (like this older Razer Blade)? In short — a lot. 

Nvidia has a bunch of technologies that go with a graphics card. All of them combine to create an all-around speedy experience. 

There's Dynamic Boost, Nvidia's tech that automatically switches power from the CPU to the GPU when it's needed, to ensure you get the highest performance, but without having to do anything. 

There's also something called DLSS, which is short for Deep Learning Super Sampling, and is an AI technology used to boost graphics performance and frame rates using the Tensor Core AI processors built directly into the GPU itself. That means super smooth gameplay thanks to speedy frame rates without sacrificing image quality, perfect for taking advantage of fast refresh displays like the 144hz panel on that Gigabyte laptop. 

RTX 30-series laptop GPUs also come equipped with ray-tracing capabilities too, so that games with ray-tracing support show with
