The MSI Prestige 14 with Core Ultra X7 358H was delivering the most energy efficient rendering of all the laptops tested.
With Intel's own OSPRay Studio software, the fastest render times remained with the AMD Strix Point laptops due to their AVX-512 support that is highly leveraged by the Intel rendering toolkit software.
Intel's Open Image Denoise and Embree ray-tracing kernels are some of the other creator software assets that love AVX-512.
With the long-used C-Ray ray-tracer, the Intel Core Ultra X7 358H was delivering the best performance and power efficiency out of the laptops tested.
