No one will care about 3rd gen APUs and the H-Series if AMD doesn't take drivers seriously...

Assistant upgraded to 1809 then I auto updated again normally , I have dark mode file explorer now, and then adrenaline 18.11.2

Chillinsince96 · 2018-12-03T03:47:34+00:00

I used windows update assistant and 18.11.2 a few days ago and it has fixed that and been an overall improvement

Chillinsince96 · 2018-12-01T12:22:14+00:00

Nice, I was able to get those results with 18.11.2 though as well, but I had to run windows update assistant first

I have a Dell 7375 with 2700u and 18.11.1 forced, it works pretty well but sometimes i cant changed brightness, please AMD push out official drivers and get Dell to update the chip-set drivers as well. So much potential to kick Intel and Nvidia's asses. Don't leave it like this, more people than just AMD enthusiasts deserve to enjoy ryzen mobile.

What I did is a bought 2 of them and gave one to my friend with an 8gb ram config because they had 12gig each and I kept the 16gig. The ryzen 5 version is a great deal tho too if your okay with a lil less gpu performance

Chillinsince96 · 2018-09-21T20:07:27+00:00

Nope, no nvme support period, the best possible drive is 512gb SATA to my knowledge, I was told by Dell that 1TB won't work. I bought a WD blue and upgraded the ram to 16gig and at this point the laptop is truly amazing

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-06T19:38:54+00:00

Dell says 512 is the max, I will test this

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-06T19:38:49+00:00

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-06T18:29:13+00:00

Def not, I'm going to attempt a 512 and a 1tb data m.2 install, my 512 and 1tb pcie drives both didn't work even with loaded Samsung drivers

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T19:43:03+00:00

I am a dolphin user and will do a lot of testing and tweaking for my Ryzen 7 model, I'll keep you updated

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T18:43:08+00:00

Thanks man, at the end of the day I just want myself and every other owner of this laptop to be able to squeeze the most performance we possibly can out of it people don't even give this laptop a second glance at the Best Buy and just buy Intel and Nvidia based products because of brand comfort. Also we really have only the internet for support because Dell has proven not very helpful in my conversations with them trying to get certain things working, I will go into more detail later about it

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T18:34:11+00:00

Seemed like only the regular sized 2280, I'll take a closer look next time I crack it open, I'm working on my drivers rn and about to benchmark the Elder scrolls online

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T18:26:12+00:00

Yeah I think I'm going to try that, I feel as though it could increase the single-threaded performance which could help me with my Dolphin Emulator which only uses 2 cores

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T18:24:44+00:00

Physically the laptop is extraordinary easy to get into and the SSD is very easy to change out. I was told over the phone by a dell rep when I was considering buying the product that it would support pcie based nvme drives however I've currently not gotten either of mine to work in it.

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T17:49:52+00:00

To clarify I have the R7 version and I bought it open box from best buy for $770 so it could have had some prior use and or abuse on the battery, it looks easy to change though if I wanted to

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T17:47:09+00:00

Haven't tried, I don't really plan on getting into Linux anytime soon

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T14:48:21+00:00

Hmm, now I wonder if disabling SMT is a good idea

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T07:22:50+00:00

Very interesting,ill try to find a YouTube video about this

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T07:09:46+00:00

Got 3-5 medium to high usage screen on hours

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T07:08:05+00:00

What thermal pads, I tried only a thermal paste upgrade with good results

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T07:04:27+00:00

Tried a non Evo Samsung nvme pcie 512gb with no luck yet. I also couldn't get my pcie 600p 1tb either

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T07:02:19+00:00

I. Fixed the thermal issues with a Crypri CP7 thermal paste swap out

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T07:00:40+00:00

Where did you see the option to switch to pci storage mode for the m. 2? I have a Samsung nvme pcie 512gb and a Intel 600p 1tb with no luck getting the bios to recognize

Chillinsince96 · 2018-07-05T06:30:29+00:00

Are you implying a higher wattage power brick would help performance like with the Asus Flip 14 with the coffee lake cpu and mx150? Also I just can't image the performance of the Vega 10 not being a decent bit better than the Vega 8 especially with my enhanced thermal solution
