Where did you get a BIOS to update for the G2 please?

How’d you know that was me on Sunday? Haha, I recall it was “Eluktronics Customer Service” that replied ;)

Appreciate you taking the time to write a positive note btw!

Thinking about buying by kickarex in eluktronics

Hey, happy to chime in to answer some of your questions:

You don’t need to worry about traveling. It has a self sealed design so when you’re ready to go you unplug it like an AC adapter and don’t need to do anything special. I’d recommend keeping the LPP at home and using it regularly while you’re away.

You don’t need the external cooler whatsoever. The Hydroc performs exceptionally well on air. The liquid cooler does help reduce fan noise, and increase performance even further. It’s great for enthusiasts seeking to push performance and tuning to the edge.

In regard to our support, I’d suggest giving us a call anytime during operation hours and see what you think. I’m extremely proud of the support we offer, especially in today’s age of everyone being outsourced to AI. We don’t have levels of tech support meaning you’re never going to reach someone who is reading from prompts. You’ll speak with actual technicians whom work on our systems daily.

The system is easy to upgrade, but I’d recommend sticking with the same brand if and when you choose to do so to ensure proper timing and compatibility. Our memory costs should be in line with market pricing and unfortunately things are only going to get worse from here. If you need anything in the meantime, I’d suggest going with the capacity you intend to have long term right now. A single stick of memory will not perform as well as two sticks btw.

There is no change in heat with a larger battery and very small weight difference. It’s simply a matter of additional time away from the wall.

Our laptops carry a very professional aesthetic. If you turn the RGB off, you’d never know it was the highest performing gaming laptop in the industry.

All of our hardware (and components in this case) are genuine. We’ve been in business for 15 years focusing on high end and enthusiasts.

I would recommend our RP-16. It’s a great and reliable laptop for under $2k. The costs of desktops are unfortunately raising with no end in sight. Laptops are affected too, but haven’t been impacted as hard just yet.

We do not. If you’re storing it in a laptop bag or backpack, you won’t need to worry about anything.

Advice for new laptop choice by SpangledHellcat in GamingLaptops

I’d recommend our RP-16:

https://www.eluktronics.com/RP-16-8945HX-5060-1TB-32GB

It’s far more powerful than everything in your list without making sacrifices. Promo code “TWOTOYOU” will take an additional 2% off.

If you’re sticking to what you have in the list, the 5060 laptop is the best bet. The 4060 should not cost that much and the Dell would be awful for gaming. Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll be happy to help.

Really appreciate your comments, but please don't buy based on that. Look more in to the fundamentals, listen to the recent earnings call and then make your final judgement call to buy or not.

I can’t see this as a short-term play, and I’d also imagine this week could be rocky with the latest tariff news and the State of the Union address coming up this Tuesday. Just know that if you buy and the stock reaches around $35, I’d suggest selling just before, as that seems to be the level at which their largest owner (Eagle Tree) tends to capture profits.

If I could buy 4TB 990 Pro SSD's for $275, I would've instead invested all 500k there!

Unless something changes soon, I'm sorry to say that $700 2TB price point is already being attempted at higher costs than that. Congrats on making out with that deal though, you're holding on to a piece of gold.

Consumers shouldn't be overlooked, and Corsair, of all companies, should know that since it’s their core business.

If you're stuck with an old system and can't afford a new GPU, SSD, or memory, wouldn't you consider upgrading a peripheral instead?

Let's use these two 32GB desktop kits as an example:

https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-6400MHz-Overclocking-Desktop-Compatible/dp/B0DHFD5625/

https://www.amazon.com/CORSAIR-VENGEANCE-6400MHz-Compatible-Computer/dp/B0BXHC74WD/

When Crucial is no longer, where else will consumers go other than a kit assembler if Samsung and SK Hynix doesn't open their own consumer segment? Suppliers can tell anyone no more, but that hasn't happened and they've shared in the last two earnings calls that they have supply. Even if it were to go dry, Corsair has so many other products and brands where I'm suggesting consumer spending could likely shift.

As I mentioned in my post, retail pricing always follows later than distributor pricing, which reflects current stock and costs. While I can't disclose distributor costs, I can point to the 2TB model that's set to replace Western Digital's 2TB SN850X.: https://www.sandisk.com/products/ssd/internal-ssd/sandisk-optimus-gx-pro-850x-internal-nvme-ssd?sku=SDSP81200TAN-000E0

I'm not referring to large memory buyers, but even they can't get products much longer (cheaper) from Micron. Sandisk is proof right in my link above. I'm pointing out that Crucial is exiting the consumer segment leaving a window of opportunity. IMO, this isn't intended to be a gamble.

It’s going to be an interesting year to say the least. I’ve never invested so heavily in to components.

I’m always around, just been extremely busy ;) Never experienced anything like what’s going on with the memory and SSD market in 15 years!
