Bought a new MSI Titan 18 HX. First steps?

[EriannMX]

As title says, I bought myself for christmas a new Titan 18 HX A14 laptop (RTX 4090, 128GB DDR5, 4TB SSD). I hadn't upgraded my gaming laptop in 12 years so, yes, I splurged.

What should be my first steps?

I read something about undervolting? Should I buy an extra SSD?
Upgrade BIOS? Overclock the GPU?
 

I would apprecciate feedback from other MSI owners.

Personal opinion, for reference only.

I am currently using MSI Creator Pro X18 A14- which is essentially the mobile workstation version of Titan 18 HX A14.
You can first watch the review articles published on my personal website. Currently, two articles have been published and are being serialized, totaling four articles. The English version has not been released yet.
 

 

Your first step should be to upgrade to the latest official version of BIOS, and overclocking is not necessary;
The reason is that its performance is powerful enough, it can be said to be the strongest laptop currently available. Look at its power supply, it is 400 watts, which is the highest power among current laptops - there were indeed laptops that used two 330 watt power supplies before, but due to technological advances, it is actually far inferior to the Itan 18 HX A14.

The Titan 18 HX A14 can simultaneously install three M.2 2280 SSDs, currently supporting up to three 8TB M.2 2280 SSDs. Whether to add a new SSD depends on whether you really need more storage space.
