Sakuromoto unveiled the Inter Book, powered by the GeForce GTX 1060 from 2016 and an entry-level Intel N95 processor from the Alder Lake family. The company markets this N95 as “Core i9-class,” although it is not actually a Core i9 processor. Additionally, the display of the Inter Book is marketed as “4K-class” but only offers 1080p resolution. This model aims to revive the NVIDIA GTX 10 Series GPUs for basic graphical workloads.
The company’s Rescue series laptop features an even more bizarre combination: a high-end Core i9 12900H processor paired with a relatively weak NVIDIA MX550 GPU. The marketing material mistakenly shows specifications of a powerful desktop GPU, suggesting the MX550 is capable of handling modern games, which it cannot.
Both configurations are likely to suffer from significant performance bottlenecks due to the mismatch between the processors and GPUs. The GTX 1060 can handle medium settings at 1080p with the N95 processor, but this combination will still be limited by the CPU’s capabilities. In contrast, the Rescue series’ high-end Core i9 paired with a weak MX550 is an extremely poor choice for gaming.
These unusual laptop configurations highlight Sakuromoto’s approach to utilizing older components or potentially repurposing silicon that might otherwise end up unused.
