TUXEDO Stellaris 16 (Gen6) laptop brings high performance to Linux users
The TUXEDO Stellaris 16 (Gen6) is a high-performance Linux laptop designed for users seeking powerful hardware. With a thickness of 2.6 cm and a weight of 2.5 kg, it balances portability with the cooling capacity needed for high-performance components. It’s built with an all-aluminum chassis that aims to combine rigidity with an understated design, making it suitable for gaming and professional environments.
The Stellaris 16 features Intel’s Core i9-14900HX processor, offering 24 cores and 32 threads. Buyers can choose between several NVIDIA graphics options, ranging from the RTX 4060 to the high-end RTX 4090. The laptop’s design supports these GPUs at their maximum power limits, thanks to its efficient cooling system, which includes six heat pipes and dual 12 mm fans, allowing it to handle up to 225 watts of thermal load. For users looking for additional cooling, TUXEDO offers the Aquaris liquid cooling docking station.
TUXEDO launches 5th generation Polaris 15 and Stellaris 16 Linux gaming laptops
The world of PC gaming often seems like a relentless race for the highest specs, typically led by Intel's high-end processors such as the Core i9-13900HX, boasting extreme multicore performance. However, the reality is, not every gamer needs (or can afford) such power. Enter the new TUXEDO Polaris 15 and Stellaris 16, equipped with AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS and NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics. These machines promise a balance of high performance, affordability, and power efficiency, making high-end gaming accessible to a wider audience.
At the core of these gaming laptops is the AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS processor. Despite appearing underpowered with “only” 8 cores and 16 threads compared to its Intel counterparts, this chip, made with a modern 4nm process, showcases energy efficiency. It delivers performance nearly parallel to the more power-hungry Intel Core i7-13700H, positioning it as a wise pick for upper mid-range gaming. The shift to the Zen 4 architecture yields about 13 percent and 17 percent better single-core and multicore performance respectively, compared to its predecessors.
