Their latest offering is the **Slimbook Titan** and as the name suggests, it is quite a powerful and featured packed laptop. ## Slimbook Titan: What does it pack? The Slimbook Titan is powered by an 8-core **AMD Ryzen 7 5800H** processor running at 3.2 GHz, the processor is based on [AMD’s latest Zen 3 architecture](https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/zen-core-3?ref=itsfoss.com) which is a significant improvement over the previous generation. For gaming and other graphics intensive tasks the laptop comes equipped with a dedicated GPU, the **Nvidia RTX 3070** with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory. The GPU is based on [Nvidia’s Ampere architecture](https://www.nvidia.com/en-in/data-center/nvidia-ampere-gpu-architecture/?ref=itsfoss.com) which brought in significant performance gains compared to the [Turing architecture](https://www.nvidia.com/en-in/geforce/turing/?ref=itsfoss.com) that came earlier, and in some cases even doubled the performance gain. ![Slimbook Titan](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/01/Slimbook-Titan-Poster.png) The laptop comes equipped with **16 GB DDR4 RAM @3200 MHz** by default and the user has an option to bump it up to either 32 GB or 64 GB of DDR4 RAM @3200 MHz at an added cost. As for data storage, the user has an option to opt for the default 500 GB NVMe SSD or expand it up to a 2 TB NVMe SSD at an added cost. There is also an optional empty M.2 storage port to install an additional SSD. The laptop comes equipped with an 15.6-inch, 2K (2560×1440), 165Hz, IPS display. ![Slimbook Titan](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/01/Slimbook-Titan-Front.png) The Slimbook Titan features a full mechanical keyboard complete with a numpad.

[Slimbook](https://slimbook.es/en/?ref=itsfoss.com) have not released any benchmarking data regarding the thermals and battery life of the laptop. Whenever they do release the numbers though, we will be sure to cover it on [It’s FOSS](https://itsfoss.com/). **As for other features, connectivity and IO ports, the Titan is equipped with a host of them:** - It comes equipped with the latest Wi-Fi 6 AX standard wireless adapter. - A 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port. - Sound system provided by THX. - 3 x USB 3.0 ports. - 1 x USB-C port with display support. - 1 x HDMI port for external displays. - Infrared camera with facial recognition. - Three operation modes: Office, Gaming and Turbo. ## Pricing and Availability The Slimbook Titan is available for pre-order on their [official store](https://slimbook.es/en/store/titan/titan-comprar?ref=itsfoss.com) at a discounted price of **€1599** for the base model without any add-ons, the post release price of the base model is going to be **€1759**. If you want to get the fully decked out model of the Slimbook Titan then you could be paying upwards of **€3000** with 64 GB DDR4 RAM @3200 MHz, two 2 TB NVMe SSDs by Samsung in RAID 1 configuration, Dual Boot Windows 10 Pro with your choice of a Linux distro installed alongside and a pen drive with your choice of Linux distro preinstalled.

The closest competition to the Titan are the [TUXEDO Computers series of Polaris gaming laptops](https://itsfoss.com/tuxedo-linux-gaming-laptop/), but they are running last gen hardware and cannot be compared directly. The other option is to buy a Windows equipped gaming laptop and dual boot a Linux distro onto it. But we all know how big of a headache that is. Not into Linux gaming laptops?, you can easily get non-gaming Linux laptops from brands around the world, for more info check [our article on the topic](https://itsfoss.com/get-linux-laptops/).
