Here I'm 24C-27C on avg after rainfall. In the night its cooler 20-22C and my AW BGA is very cool and quiet along with Pixel 7 reaching max temps 33C and min at 25C as opposed to 42C max and 33C min in summer at 40-45C ambient.

Anyone tried KryoSheets yet?

Faced the same issue. Had to install the older **newer driver in fact** by running AMD Pro GPU setup utility.

Done. Updated OP.

OFC-> Optic Fibre Cable. For Daily usage upwards of 20Mbps barely sees a noticeable difference aside from longer download times on massive files like you said. I hope newer games use Fitgirl like compression

If you're migrating from GAuth to MSAuth I'd suggest going with Aegis or Ente. Its better to export new ones to Cloud or local backup. MS Auth doesn't even export existing 2FA codes unlike GAuth. Unlike their marketing for MS Auth iOS and Android are not cross compatible since iOS uses iCloud so you can't sync from Outlook account in Android.

Just upgraded from 4G to OFC 150Mbps from local provider. Paired the stock wifi with Deco M5 for better connectivity for every room.

@PapusanThis is my sis's new BGA. Still testing the TDP and optimizing it. Lenovo Power manager is broken and sets up too high TDP causing instant thermal throttling. Using UXTU to limit TDP to 18w-20w sustained PL0, 28w short burst PL1 and 25w for long burst PL2. Added Ryzen Power plan 1usmus Ryzen Power Saver Plan. https://hwbot.org/user/v56m/#mywall

Just got a new laptop for my sister for university. Specs: CPU Ryzen Pro 5875U GPU Vega 11 RAM 16GB DDR4 SODIMM 3200MT/s SSD M.2 2242 Kioxia 1TB Display 14" Touch FHD Webcam FHD Hybrid IR Warranty 3Yr extended + 3 yr intl + keep your drive (all extra, standard is 1 yr warranty) W11 Pro and Office 2021 Pro Plus. Repasted with ICD HC Pad. Pros: Very powerful and quiet Portable and compact Good battery life Cons: Vantage, Power and battery driver, power manager, intelligent cooling driver are causing high thermals even after repaste and after adding block rules from gpedit the temps are below 80-90C in high ambient >30C. Insane TDP set by Lenovo for Windows Power slider almost pushes to 70W for 15w TDP CPU causing 100C instantly. More bloatware installed by Win 11 and lenovo. IR camera not working/detected as Windows Hello compatible. Stock Paste:

Usually oneplus or nothing or google buds worked well with iOS,android and Windows PC. It worked nicely with iOS and Android. Windows 10/11 gets little mental when you're streaming HQ video when your router switches to 2.4GHz from 5GHz band. I had to reconnect it with Windows PCs(Dell,Lenovo and HP). I'm unsure about MBP since I don't have them. Anyway, my budget was half of yours so your mileage may vary since its almost high end audiophile.

I don't think that discord channel is in use, it was called LiquidHz server or something. Its been years since I heard any updates from them and once NBR forums was taken down, I stopped using discord/tap-a-talk entirely. I believe iunlock and Deex were present in Steven's OwnOrDisown channel along with alexnvidia.

I have swapped out the stock SSD and RAM few years ago. Battery was a mess to replace and costed a lot. Dell has pulled the plug and Intel has EOL'd skylake CPU updates. Why not opt for Eluktronics with Prema mod since you're living in the USA or even framework laptop if you don't want DTR/gaming laptop.

Will it affect your HoF galax 4090? Say a BIOS update that locks out max frequency to favor the new stepping/die changes? I hope this doesn't start a trend to buy the same model GPUs with more pricing due to better optimization/die stepping.

Did have the same issue on my echo model. What was missing from nvidia driver was optimus profile and after that sudden powercut/blackscreen went away. Also, after spectre patches whenever laptop goes to sleep it never recovers. It happens on latest BIOS which disabled undervolt but also limited the max voltage CPU can use. But the sleep of death still persists and the echo model doesn't have Modern Standby. Anyway the CPU temps is same like undervolted one after I replaced the paste wth TG Carbonaut. I do not know of a gaming laptop i.e w/o compromise, there is no choice now. You go with 18" massive laptops with inflated model names that won't come near their desktop counterparts. Just got my sister a thinkpad L14 and it has upgradable SODIMMs, 2242 SSD PCIe4, Ryzen Pro 5875U and replaceable Wifi card. Had extended the warranty to 3Y. Only downside was 2242 SSD instead of 2280. It was a good compromise as opposed to LPDDR4/LPDDR5 soldered RAM, Soldered Wifi and 2280 SSD.

I stopped using MSI AB and RTSS long time ago and switched to Nvidia Frameview(Dx10,11,12) and Amd OCAT(Vulkan and dx9). MSI AB developer barely listen and use readymade script to uninstall beta RTSS/MSI AB or even complete uninstall while I had completely clean installed windows w/o restoring profiles.

Does enabling HAGS in Win 10/11 improve the score when paired with Game Mode?

I got turned off instantly. Felt more like a rage than a rant. @PapusanDo you think we'll see sub 400$ GPU from either GPU vendor? I think they make more money from BGA GPUs.

@Mr. FoxYou went with full AMD build which is a first after 7970M on AW. RBE doesn't work anymore. You can use 1usmus tuning tool or Igors lab Been searching for new laptop to replace 15r2 since video editing and OS slipstreaming w/ testing with taking more than 8 hrs. Soldered DRAM/Wifi/SSD are priced lower but repair costs is too high on out of warranty. I don't know if Radeon RDNA2/3 iGPU is sufficient for davinci resolve.

How did you do that? Been using prema vbios for long time but nvinspector reverts the voltage to default every time I set it to 0.98V or 1.00V

Added it to OP under notes section. Also subbed to your YT channel.

Solved the issue after testing with one drive attached to NVMe and it has reached advertised speeds.

As the title suggests I went with a sweet deal SN570 1TB for game/videos and tested with Orico NVMe enclosure and transferred the data just fine from old M.2 SATA 850 EVO 256GB. I decided to bench using CrystalDiskMark and it was barely reaching rated speeds of a PCIe3 x4 and tried it in a different slot which caps the lanes to x2 and speeds difference was almost indistinguishable. I checked WD warranty using the serial number and seems to be genuine. The current speeds are similar to SN550 which had lanes capped to x2 and isn't sold anymore in India. Should I return the drive? I was really amazed at 600TBW endurance from BiCs5 NAND but experience is not great. Also the firmware is up-to-date. The SSDs I'm using P1 1TB on Alienware 15r2 6700HQ. SN570 might be moved to new business/gaming laptop which will replace 15r2. Any inputs will be much appreciated. PCIe3 x4 1GB sample size: PCIe3 x4 8GB sample size: PCIe3 x2 speed: Crucial P1 in x2 and x4 lane: SN570 x2 lane Versus SN570 x4 lane: Sn570 x4 lane against various sample sizes:

You could use tools made by bel. I use privatezilla on win 10 and thisiswin11(might be deprecated and merged into debloos app). All are portables and very small. Built by bel repo Debloos for Win 11 ThisIsWin11 Privatezilla(Debloat Win 10)

I think you might want to try TG carbonaut or even ICD High Compressible graphite pad. For me both of them are lasting quite long on laptops. I'm unsure about the performance or reliability with 300W+ and those pads quickly fall out of line from LM and traditional pastes. I thought Linus Tech tips kept a stock of Honeywell Phase change pads but I couldn't find it on their store page.
