Performance scores
HP Pavilion 16-ag0052wm — a 2024 16-inch that quietly carries a real GeForce
A 2024 machine at $483, above the $373 class median. The configuration is unusually complete: Core Ultra 5 125U, GeForce MX570, 64GB of RAM. Graphics scores 66 — high tier, more than 16× the class median — and reliability registers 97, top of the class. The registered watch-out is weight: 1.7kg against a 1.46 median.
The graphics are genuinely usable
An MX570 in a big-screen office chassis clears bars this category rarely touches: Overwatch and GTA V at recommended settings pass, Far Cry 5 measures 21 fps at its recommended tier, and Premiere Pro and Photoshop both clear minimum. Add 64GB of RAM and this is a light content-creation machine wearing office clothes.
Structural weight, entry-tier GPU
At 1.7kg the machine is heavy for its recorded class — though normal for a 16-inch; the trade is inherent to the format, not a defect. The honest ceiling: the MX570 is an entry card, strong against office peers but far below true gaming hardware. Expect light-game and creative work, not AAA at high settings.
Price trajectory
From a $1,400 base, decay runs 11.29% per year to $483, with a projected $380 (−21%) ahead. The premium over the class median buys the GPU and the panel; the depreciation rate reflects how fast mid-tier GPU value erodes.
Against its neighbors
Both listed analogs undercut it while offering far less GPU: the ThinkPad P1 Gen 2 ($447) and Dell XPS 13 9305 ($441). Neither matches the MX570-plus-64GB combination — the buyer pays a modest premium for the only real graphics in this immediate band.
Bottom line
The rare big-screen office machine with a working dGPU. For buyers who want one device for documents, media, light photo/video editing, and occasional gaming at moderate settings, this is the coherent pick in its price band.
