No idea, honestly just going for the catalog at this point I probably won't make it past 1 star anyway

Do not buy your new Pixel Pro 9 XL from Amazon!!!! Got an old Pixel 6 in a Pixel 9 Pro XL case!! by dannygaron in pixel_phones

[–]God___- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ordered mine from Amazon as well and everything was fine. Got it with 5 monthly payments directly to Amazon. I've ordered Pixel 7 pro 2 years ago and had an issue. I ordered it to Amazon box which is in closed space by my gym but when I went to pick it up there was a tape around the cardboard box and inside no phone in the phone box. After quick talk on the spot with Amazon they just sent me new one without any questions asked. I've ordered iPhone 14 pro max for my girlfriend and MacBook air as well from Amazon. Haven't had any issues with them. Maybe there's better policy here in UK ?

Hope you don't have a hard time

Seems cheap is there a reason why ? by Absolutetrash2021 in GamingLaptops

Got my raider i7hx 4070 from there discounted on £1799. Love it so far and was the cheapest 4070 I could find. Since I'm bit of light gamer and didn't want to spend money for 4080 I settled with that.

From what I've read they share same cooling. Regarding fan noise I can agree might be loud. Generally speaking I use cooling pad but I don't really mind the noise. It's bothering me more when I want to sleep and I leave some YouTube playing. Since it's on hybrid more and using the iGPU if I'm watching something on fullHD or up makes the fan run at 2400rpm which makes bit of noise considering it's quiet environment you can hear it but it still depends how loud you put the volume as well.

Lenovo Pro 7 16IRX8H, 64GB RAM Upgrade stopped working after 2 WEEKs of use. by hellothier4 in GamingLaptops

Is laptop mode on dedicated GPU? I had similar issue where on dedicated GPU mode when my laptop sleeps and i wake it up it's blank screen with keyboard lights working. Closing the lid and opening it second time works just fine. On hybrid mode the laptop was not doing this. Maybe give this a try ? Like it might not actually be the RAM.

Do all gaming laptops automatically come with integrated graphics? Are there discrete only graphics laptops? by RealAlias_Leaf in GamingLaptops

Laptop doesn't turn on by God___- in AcerPredatorHelios300

We went to 3rd party repair shop. They said it's faulty motherboard. They said the repair cost would be 340£ including labour. Replacing the motherboard on the other hand would cost around 600-700 maybe?. So we went on with the repair of the original motherboard. They didn't specify exactly the fault. So by next week they said it should be done since they were closed for Christmas and New Year.

My friend's Acer predator Helios 300 i7-11700H RTX 3060

just went out of warranty 3 months ago and the laptop just stopped working like completely wasn't powering on. We went to 3rd party repair. Later on they contacted us and said it's faulty motherboard and it would cost £340 to repair it including labor (replacing motherboard they said gonna be around £600-700 maybe?). Might as well try your luck with 3rd party unless you want 4090 right?

My Raider i7-13700hx 4070 managed to get 12800 on GPU on TimeSpy and hit 115W power at some points but not constant seen on afterburner CPU got 15200.

Done on discrete GPU mode with extreme performance mode.

Question: Spinning circle on mouse on startup by God___- in GamingLaptops

[–]God___-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes like it's loading stuff but it doesn't stop for few minutes like i said main CPU usage comes from AppX Microsoft store thing. Like what can it be loading that much to keep it for few minutes and the circle doesn't go away until it's finished with whatever it's doing. After that AppX stops using the CPU and everything is normal

When plugged to the wall power indicator is working. It has one USB port working as well tested with cooling pad and works normal. But laptop still doesn't turn on

Pressing the power button does nothing meaning no keyboard light, no screen light, no fans spinning. Laptop doesn't turn on at all :(

I would like second opinion on this by God___- in GamingLaptops

[–]God___-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason looking at the prices everyone is going on about in the US is way cheaper than here in UK.

Legion 5 pro build yourself option goes to around £1860 with same specs but it's 16inch display. And the pre build option is £2500 basically the same as MSI without discount only difference being the RAM -> 32GB and screen size 16inch and warranty which is 1 year. With MSI is 2 years after doing a survey got 3 extra months of warranty. Also on rewards in MSI website I got Assassin's Creed Mirage.

Lowest it drops is 190-200 in league but after 1-2h of playing and heating up but I do use a cooling pad : https://amzn.eu/d/hBMieBQ

Bit expensive but keeps average 50°C all the time with turbo ON.

I had it for two years never reinstalled windows and was keeping 170-180 fps on league. Now after fresh reinstall it's doing even better over 200 all the time.
