At this year's CES, one of the biggest tech conferences in the world, tech company GDP has brought along a curious laptop with two OLED screens, powered by Ryzen's AI CPU and it all feels a bit much to me.
The PC Gamer team got eyes on the device but, if you aren't lucky enough to be in overcrowded rooms in Las Vegas checking out tech with the world's brightest geeks, it is live right now on the GPD website.
Interestingly, instead of going with the traditional dual monitor route of having one on the left and one on the right, the GPD Duo puts one on top of the other.
GPD aren't the first to do this, of course, with the Asus Zenbook Duo and Lenovo Yoga Book 9i doing the same but both of those machines have detachable keyboards, so you can place one screen flat on a surface.
GPD, on the other hand, has locked a keyboard to the two screens with a chassis, which means you have to bring the entire thing as a single unit with you wherever you go. The version of this machine with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 CPU, 32 GB LPDDR5X RAM, and 1 TB of SSD storage will cost you a whopping $2,010.95.
This is the cheapest model right now, with the most expensive coming in at $2,820.95 with 64 GB of RAM and 8 TB of SSD storage.
We have tested this CPU and it's a good 'un, performing similarly to the Intel Core i9 14900HX (seen in the most recent Razer Blade 16) in Cinebench and getting an average of 42 fps in Horizon Zero Dawn at the highest preset. That said, how this specific model performs will rely on a few factors, and the 60 W TDP combined with an 80 Wh battery might not only cost you performance but battery life.
Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.
Those dual screens aren't necessarily for gaming, of course, as a laptop like this will be primarily aimed at engineers, coders, and those who work with high-intensity loads on their laptops.
