    I did a fan cleanup and a repaste on my Legion 5 sometime last week after temps was starting to hit 102C at times when gaming. Finally had some time to run some benchmarks. Cinebench: 3Dmark Timespy: 3DMark Firestike: GPU-Z Overclocked 1660ti Core: 160MHz+/Memory: 500MHZ+: I think my results are better than expected for a 4800H/1660ti laptop

    I hope its not the case this year because it makes no sense because Dell uses it for all of their gaming laptops including Alienware with the AMD models. I havent heard anything about the AMD models as of yet.

    They're not good at all and its only a grabcash imo. The gameplay is mostly the same, Most of the songs are not in the game anymore because of copyrights reasons and I dont know if they fixed the lack of fog in GTASA or not.

    Some reviews are out about the new Legion 5 Pro Gen 7 https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-Legion-5i-Pro-16-G7-Review-Gaming-Laptop-now-with-Alder-Lake-and-RTX-3070-Ti.610467.0.html It uses advanced optimus as well. I dont know when the AMD version will be released

    I havent watched the Oscars nor any award shows in years because they're mostly the same especially the virtue signaling crap. I didnt know about the slap until i received a notification of a news article about it on my phone. At least the memes of it was pretty funny! A certain celebrity killed someone on set and nothing happened to him as of yet.

    DDR5 is still new so its going to take more time for it to mature, Even looking at the benchmarks its still not worth the price for it right now imo especially with real world testing. The only good thing about DDR5 is that it caused DDR4 RAM prices to drop!.

    Its kinda weird they would make a 4th Crysis game after how the 3rd one ended. Hopefully they'll go back to Crysis 1 roots this time.

    The results are pretty shocking.

    I've played every GTA mainstream game out there since the first game and i still play GTA V from time to time but only single player because online is nothing but a cheater's paradise. San Andreas is still my favorite GTA game and people still play it because of Multiplayer mods like MTA and SA-MP. I dont know if im going to buy GTA VI because Rockstar/Take two lost my respect over the years especially with the latest cashgrabs they've been doing, Plus the main people who worked on the GTA series and RDR are gone now.

    This is why customers always need to do their research before buying. They can easily go on youtube and search for reviews of laptops they want to buy but instead they quickly buy the newest trend and then later be disappointed when its not what they expected. Also the Alienware x14 only goes up to a 60W (75W) RTX 3060 which is a rip off for the price but i bet it'll still sell well.

    They're adding their terrible ideas from Windows 10 to 11 and force people to accept them without any complaint. Clearly Windows 11 is worse than 10 and they expect Windows 10 users to downgrade upgrade to 11 when there no improvements over 10. But remember newer is always better 😁 I forgot to add that Windows 11 is only 7% of the marketshare currently, Even Windows 7 has more users at 12% while Windows 10 has 75%.

    Im not a fan of RPG games nor i've played any Soul's game before but i gotta say this, The fake outrage about Elden Ring's difficulty level from so called game journalists all weekend made me laugh my ass off and it kinda makes me wanna buy the game to try it out and support them for catering to their fan base instead of certain woke groups. I like games with a difficult learning curve as i grew up during the time when games was tough to beat

    You're not going to find a RTX 3080 laptop at that price range. Correct me if i am wrong but isnt 1800 cad is around $1400 USD? if so then thats the average price of a RTX 3060 laptop which your OMEN is. I dont know what type of performance you are looking for but you should keep your OMEN because an RTX 3060 can handle every game out there currently plus you're going to be paying a lot more for an RTX 3080 laptop. Another thing if you go thinner you're gonna get a lower wattage version of a GPU that'll have less performance than the full wattage version.

    The static/artifacts is a sign that your GPU is dying, I would ask did you do any overclocking on it but its too far gone Other signs of a dying GPU is Windows failing to detect your GTX 1070 and failed installations when installing any NVIDIA driver. Unfortunately there nothing you can do about it. The laptop will work without the NVIDIA GPU because of the Intel IGP being used as your display(Optimus)

    Microsoft isnt the same company anymore, those days are done. They were many serious bugs with Windows Updates on Windows 10 in the past and its still an issue today. Windows 11 is still brand new and its going to have a lot of bugs in it and this why i always suggested users not to upgrade to a new OS in the first year.

    I wish screenshot my profile but I registered on NBR around 2008 after lurking for several months in 2007 and i only joined NBR because i was having overheating problems with a HP DV5 and i needed help to solve it.
  17. KING19
    Im glad i got my wish that the NBR community will no longer be split into 3 different forums and hopefully they'll join here so we can all be in one place!. Also its almost been a month since NBR was closed 😑

    Samsung Galaxy A20. I been thinking about buying a new phone because its starting to show its age especially the storage since its only 32GBs and it slows down often when multitasking, I been thinking about going with a Google Pixel 5 or 6 or a OnePlus type phone. I want to break away from Samsung as my last 2 phones were Samsung Galaxys, At this point i wouldnt mind going with a IPhone.

    My reaction of Windows 12... Its better than blindly defending the OS and accepting everything about it. Its not whining when you backup your criticisms with facts Also Windows 10 should of stayed as the last Windows OS as planned.

    This. I understand soldering the CPU and GPU on laptops somewhat because laptops are already pretty limited compared to a desktop. Hell about 95%+ people never heard of MXM plus MXMs are pretty expensive and cost higher than a normal desktop GPU because there barely a market for them. But soldering RAM, WIFI, and even SSDs is still shady to me and i blame Apple for making these trends mainstream especially with Internal batteries. RAM, SSDs and WIFI cards dont take much space even on thin and light laptops. They're pretty much the only upgrades we can do on a laptop.

    That's good news!. I probably can run the game on Ultra getting 60FPS+ on my 1660ti laptop if i decide to finally buy the game.

    I went with NotebookTalk since it was the better option. But i also liked NBRforums.com that Samir mentioned

    I didnt know where to post this but this article on notebookcheck is interesting and it mentions some truths about bad trends with mainstream laptops that we been discussing on NBR for years. https://www.notebookcheck.net/4-controversial-laptop-trends-that-should-never-have-made-it-mainstream.599710.0.html Here's some trends that should of been in the article IMO Soldiered on RAM, and WIFI especially on thin and light laptops Laptop webcams still on 720p in 2022... No separate touchpad buttons. Personally i always hated clickpads and after using them for years my opinion on them hasnt changed.

    The Dell Precision 7740 by far and its perfect for those tasks. The Asus Strix G512L is a gaming laptop and it wont be right for a architect especially with its RGB lighting everywhere plus its build quality will be worse. Also the Dell Precision 7740 is a steal even though its 2 years old the price is hard to beat with those specs for a workstation and normally workstation laptops with specs like that will cost over $2000+, Also the CPU will be fine so dont worry.
  25. KING19
    No and i'll never will unless i buy a new desktop/laptop later down the line. Until then im sticking with 10
