Again im not justifying for what Linus did but most people wouldnt be talking about this if GN didnt make a public youtube video about it calling it constructive criticism which is a big lie especially on youtube these days with influencers. I see it as an influencer attacking another influencer to gain more views and subscribers and causing the other one to lose subscribers and views and that what happened causing a unnecessary sh*tstorm, Maybe GN had some good intentions at first but all they did just added more fuel to the fire and there always an agenda about it when you make a video attacking another youtuber/influencer. I'll say this again the workplace abuse allegations with LTT have existed for a year or so, maybe longer than that i think, i havent been paying attention to a lot of it but there are pretty serious and not surprising with companies these days and ofc Linus do have a ego problem probably have a narcissist personality too. Both of those combined can easily create a toxic work environment.

This is what this whole story is becoming and people love drama that why i said in the other thread that GN (Steve) did this to increase their subscribers and views to their channel and company and to hurt their major competition and now because of their actions everyone is taking shots at LTT (Linus) making videos after videos about it and its spreading to many online forums including reddit, It didnt need to go that far and it should of been handled privately, Its a possibility that GN could get sued by LTT for defamation for causing this mess but we'll see what happens, Im not justifying what LTT and Linus did but two wrongs dont make a right. The workplace abuse allegations with LTT have existed for a year or so, maybe longer than that i think, i havent been paying attention to a lot of it but there are pretty serious and not surprising with companies these days and ofc Linus do have a ego problem probably have a narcissist personality too.

Constructive criticism is one of the most overuse lies on social media especially on youtube. I see both sides in the wrong and this should of been handled privately instead making this a public sh*tshow for the outrage junkies online. I think GN is more in the wrong because they didnt do it out of the kindness of their hearts more like they did it to increase their subscribers and views to their channel and company and to hurt their major competition which is Linus which i agree that they lost their touch over the years especially how they treat their employees, give out bad information and etc, none of it is good and can easily hurt a company and brand. Its a dirty youtube grifting game with influencers these days, Make videos about popular influencers to take advantage of the current algorithm to gain more subscribers and views especially from people dont like Linus and others, That why so many smaller channels are making videos after videos about it. Also Linus's response video is pretty bad, he should never responded in the first place because all he is doing damage control which is going to make things worse for him. Never thought this would happen with tech youtubers resorting to sh*t like this

I think you should try the repaste again because something isnt right, Maybe with real thing or something else. The random shutdowns can also be caused by a too low of a undervolt. Yea the 40 Series GPUs are overpriced as hell. If you do build a desktop go with a 30 series GPU if you can. There are some decent deals for them even for the RTX 3080 and even RTX 3090

I ordered Honeywell 7950 pads (40x80) last thursday from ebuy7 as i ran out of the paste version. I was going to order the ones from Amazon but they also come from China so it'll take the same amount of time to get here anyways. Personally i would recommend only buying it from Ebuy7 so you'll get the real deal for sure. https://ebuy7.com/honeywell-7950-phase-change-thermal-pad-notebook-computer-phase-change-silicone-grease-cpu-thermal-paste-pad-patch-material-1.html

Simulator trucking games like Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, Many older folks play them as a way to relax. Portal 2, Great game that exercises your brain

This Despite the fact that Windows 10/11 already comes with a lot crapware with it even with a clean install. Getting rid most of it only decrease some RAM usage and gains some storage space, Dont expect it to increase CPU performance whatsoever. I'll still recommend using programs like O&O ShutUp10++ and others that helps disable the spyware/telemetry and other pointless features without breaking anything.

That too lol.

That our summers every year. The humidity makes it worst especially at night and then days later we get severe storms every time a cold front passes through. Gotta keep yourself hydrated when going outside. Might have to buy some sunscreen too to protect yourself from the hot sun.

What are your temps when running benchmark tests like Cinebench and when playing games. I think its your mixed capacity ram setup that causing the stuttering issues and/or your laptop heatsink isnt aligned property after the repaste. Also thermal throtting happens when the CPU hits around 95C and GPU temps hitting around 86C.

It actually is. Around 50% faster than the 1660ti, Mines is overclocked but still nowhere close to a 140w RTX 3060. Also RTX 3060 is the successor of the RTX 2060

After repasting: Cinebench: Timespy: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/97127756 Firestrike: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/97127993

I might have to be a guinea pig soon because i just ran out of the paste version of Honeywell 7950 after repasting my laptop and my GF's laptop. Seems like the average lifespan of the paste is 6 months before the temps start rising again. Amazon has a good return system if these pads are garbage then again I could always buy the real honeywell on ebay if i want it quicker than buying from ebuy

No current games are going to use over 16GBs of RAM unless its badly optimized 2023 games like Hogwarts Legacy for an example which requires having more 16GBs of RAM or it'll stutter like mad. 64GBs of RAM is a overkill unless you're doing CAD work or even 4k-8k video editing. After upgrading to 32GBs of RAM i havent noticed any FPS increases in games but it performs more smoothly plus i dont have to worry about closing firefox everytime i load up a game or something that uses almost all of my RAM. Yeah because steam runs on Chromium which is dropping Windows 7/8.1 support. Still sucks though....

Yeah its the white version of the Legion 7 pro and Legion Slim 8

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/96243494 RAM Upgrade increased my score a bit. I ran the test almost 2 weeks ago but forgot to post it. 1660TI OC 170/600.

Agreed. Even most reviewers cant shill for it even if they wanted to because its that bad Also the customers have spoken!. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Awful-RTX-4060-launch-day-sales-reported-as-the-GPU-records-a-10-price-drop-in-Spain-within-a-week-of-release.732192.0.html

Since every tech reviewer is crapping all over the RTX 4060 mind well add these too!.

Its a dumb move by AMD especially when FSR works with all NVIDIA GPUs and its open sourced. Also modders will eventually replace FSR with DLSS in AMD sponsored games like they've been doing and vice versa with DLSS only games... NVIDIA is already anti-consumer enough but now its AMD's turn.

I started playing Forza 5 after buying it on steam due to the summer sale. It is as good as the 4th game and im having a lot fun. Im kinda bored with most shooters these days so its nice change of pace for me!

Yeah, according to the reviews and others asking questions about the pads it seems to be legit

Bought a Timetec 32GB Dual Rank DDR4 RAM kit for my Legion 5 from Amazon. Cant beat the price for it especially for Dual Rank RAM.

Seems like you can get PTM7950 from Amazon but its under a different brand but it seems to be legit according to the reviews https://www.amazon.com/PTM7950-40x80x0-2mm-JOYJOM-Conductive-Silicone/dp/B0BRJB8JNX/ref=pd_ci_mcx_mh_mcx_views_0?pd_rd_w=KS7RB&content-id=amzn1.sym.0250fb24-4363-44d0-b635-ac15f859c3b5&pf_rd_p=0250fb24-4363-44d0-b635-ac15f859c3b5&pf_rd_r=CHTYE32TFXTN1XD45T5B&pd_rd_wg=tlesG&pd_rd_r=9b76235f-b0ea-497f-94bf-aaa81788d787&pd_rd_i=B0BRJB8JNX#customerReviews

@Mr. Fox Just wow..........

I see you're using Honeywell 7950. Good choice. Its best paste for gaming laptops especially for the Lenovo Legions since they wont work correctly with other thermal paste brands.
