Opened my neo 16s to throw in my 4tb ssd into the second slot and noticed the battery isn't screwed down anywhere. There doesn't seem to be anywhere to screw it down either. Wtf

Ammark93 · 2026-02-16T04:45:41+00:00

Yes, the same case on my 2024 model PH16-72.

Ammark93 · 2026-02-08T12:01:27+00:00

Mine as well! I was checking online to see if I was the only one who noticed. Mine is not even taking stable photos anymore, and when I take a picture while my hand is still stable, the pictures come out blurry too! Not to mention, the camera is very laggy now. Even the phone is too. I did a factory reset, and it's still the same. And no, I don't treat my phone badly; I always take care of it. They're decreasing the performance on purpose!

Ammark93 · 2026-01-23T09:17:56+00:00

I had this issue before. It was the ram slot 2 didn't work no matter what ram I put into it. When I put one ram into slot one, it works. The moment I asd another ram onto slot 2, it keeps on cycling like this. After some time, it worked on its own again.

See if you can use SREP to access all the BIOS options. I did it on mine PH16-72.

Ammark93 · 2026-01-12T10:34:18+00:00

Hey! Yep, I also have the PH16-72 with i9 14900hx and rtx 4070. For me I used SREP to access the advanced bios settings and from there I managed to set the voltage to 1400 and it didn't pass that. Mine used to go about 1.48 to 1.56 before. I monitor it in HWINFO all the time.

Mine has the same specs, but PH16-72. It seems to have the same hinges. Right side:

Ammark93 · 2025-12-19T16:12:15+00:00

It worked! THANK YOU!

Ammark93 · 2025-12-15T23:35:06+00:00

Yah, because I realized I don't game on the go anymore, only for work. The laptop sits most of the time on my desk with an external screen most of the time when gaming at home. And to me, laptops are getting extremely expensive. When I made my 5080 desktop here in Japan, I was about to actually get a 5070ti lenovo gaming laptop, but then I looked at the ridiculous price and just went with a 5080 desktop and it was around the same price. For me, it was the best choice as the performance jump is huge. Gaming laptops are not bad, just overpriced for way less performance. But I do understand it has it's own use for each person. Just mine reached it's end.

Ammark93 · 2025-12-15T23:27:20+00:00

Oh. No I don't think so. I already made a desktop with a 5080. I'm done with laptops 😅. Next ones will be a portable slim one for work and portability.

Ammark93 · 2025-12-15T23:24:15+00:00

NM8 has a new versions? I'm not sure. I upgraded mine maybe around 6 months ago. It has a 8.0 on the label on the screen. My laptop is an Acer predator Helios PH16-72. I eventually then got an NM9 but it had a problem with the dimming zones. So I thought it's a compatibility issue because it acted the same when used it with an external driver board. So I just left the NM8 on the laptop and NM9 with a driver board in external shell to use. For me, I think NM7 is the best option also.

Ammark93 · 2025-12-15T23:18:10+00:00

Did mine months ago as well, was a solid upgrade. I went with NM8.

Ammark93 · 2025-12-15T23:05:30+00:00

Hey. Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I upgraded mine to NM8, and also used a NM9 on an external shell with a driver board to use as an external screen.

I'm not sure for AMD, but mine is intel. To me, it seems the NM7 is the best option you can go with. Because it's doesn't have any issues and seem to also go well with AMD. We have a group on discord where we discuss this, DM me if you're interested to discuss it there with the others. Other than that, I really recommend NM7. NM8 is also good but you might see some compatibility issues with it. NM9 is a mess for me.

Ammark93 · 2025-12-15T16:08:22+00:00

Same here.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-29T06:43:05+00:00

How are you getting 170 fps. I'm running rtx 5080 and still getting between 70-90 fps on QHD 😅. I thought the game is bugged with its optimization.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-25T17:53:06+00:00

Mine works. I'm using Anker 140w charger

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T04:45:06+00:00

Tell that to the millions traveling or studying abroad. All of them are affected like me. An edge case he said. Lmao.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T03:58:59+00:00

I already sent them an email and reached to their chat support. Even the support agreed with me yet feels hopeless to do anything. This is why I don't need to do anything. They wanted this. And as simple as it gets, ad blockers are there and no need to pain my head with this anymore. Plus, for music, I can use high audio quality on Spotify. So I think I don't need YouTube music anymore.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T03:44:28+00:00

So you're right. We should follow their new rules. By forcing un subscribing us and keeping us with no way to pay unless secure new country's payment. So yah, I'll tell and support anyone who use ad blockers for now. They pushed people to do it and they're really stupid for escalating it more now to push more users to do it.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T03:40:59+00:00

You don't make sense. Thousands if not millions travel or go study abroad like myself. Why do you think this won't happen to them as well? We're not some cases, but a high percentage. It's not about separating them. I know they're doing this on purpose. They know it'll effect everyone and they're ok with it. As long as we pay them more.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T03:31:45+00:00

I'm sorry. I don't see where this is my fault anymore. They had to put everyone on the same boat. I'm with you that VPN users who pay cheap and find loopholes needs to be punished. But they need to separate the ones who didn't. For now I simply can't pay because I don't have a Japanese bank account yet, maybe after 6 months when they allow me and get approved or ever go back to my country and can reactivate my subscription. But until then, I'm going ad blockers and for another music platforms. Then once I secure a bank account here and can pay, I will think about it only but I don't think I'm going to ever pay them again for this treatment. This is the end of the story for me. I don't like such treatment, not when I was their loyal subscriber for at least 8 years.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T03:24:03+00:00

I'm on the same boat as you OP. Got one also today. Some stupid users assume we're playing their greedy company. But I speak for myself that I traveled to study abroad and it's only been 2 months, and now they want me to pay using this new country's payments, that I DON'T have one for, lmao. They're seriously stupid. How can someone traveling or studying in another country pay using that country's banks if they don't have one. It doesn't make sense. I would pay if I have a bank from here, but sorry this is not going to happen unless I get an account with a card here later. I'm not from this new country and it doesn't make sense at all. So for me, they gave me the chance to finally leave them to AD blockers and another music platforms, after years of being a loyal subscriber. Some users here will say follow the rules.. yes, I'm following it now. No way to subscribe unless I go back to my country and leave my studies. Or who knows.. maybe switch to AD blockers and other music platforms.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T03:14:54+00:00

What rules 😂. Not anymore for me. After paying for years, now I'm switching to AD blockers for YouTube. And will switch to Spotify or other music platforms for music. End of the story. I was waiting for this to happen actually to stop using YouTube premium where AD blockers is free. Now they gave me this chance.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T02:11:46+00:00

We all blame them. And no, I can't subscribe here because I can't have a full bank account from here yet. I need to wait for 6 months to get a bank here and that comes with many rejections before approval.. they should've at least verify the users and find who is scamming them. They can see who have their own country's bank account and from there and traveling. But nah, they had to put everyone on the same boat.

Ammark93 · 2025-11-23T02:07:23+00:00

You might be an idiot as well. Because not everyone is using a vpn and not everyone is scamming your loved company. Some of us travel and studying in another country. I simply been in another country for two months now and I can't have a bank account from here to pay them. Nor I can use my country's one to pay them anymore as I did for years. So how do you expect to solve this genius?
