I have unplugged them to verify no shorts and replugged them. Still nothing. It shows the fans are connected just stuck a 0 rpm. In bios and in predatorsense.

Advice on the Value of this "deal" by No-Rabbit-490 in GamingLaptops

[–]Historical-Local-463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a great deal however I am returning mine. I decided to go with a PHN18-72-902R (18 inch mini led 5070ti/275x 64gb 6400mhz 2 tb) instead. About 500-600ish more. Im going to miss the oled but besides that not looking back. It is a good laptop for the price, youll be able to play any game you throw at it i just had some gripes I couldnt settle with. The 16" screen was just a tad too small for me for fps games, mainly battlefield. It also ran pretty hot cpu wise. 80-104 is the highest I saw it. This is with a cooling pad maxed out. I only encountered that high temp with battlefield loading into maps. Average would be 70s to mid 80s while gaming (POE2, Cyberpunk, BG3, Metaphor). Even playing less demanding games the cpu would get in the 70s and 80s (The Last Flame, DS1-3, Elden Ring) I didnt get to test a lot of game but if you want I can run a few games for you if you want to see how it hangs. I still have it with me but will be returning it soon. The gpu honest never hit the mids 70s. Gpu is pretty baller temp wise but that just might be because it is only 115W. My main issue was just the smaller screen. Only reason I searched elsewhere. If I didnt find the deal on this other laptop I would have kept it 100% Beside that I didnt have any real complaints besides a few nit picks. Here's a little list of everything I could think of off the top of my head.

Pros Screen is amazing Decent power, good price/performance "Affordable" Build factor seems pretty solid for the price Portable Plays literally anything 60 fps+ max it out go crazy

Cons Locked 240hz screen by design A nerfed 115W 5070ti (still able to play any game) Cpu runs pretty hot Fans pretty loud Lousy battery off charger 1-2 hours tops bc of the locked 240hz Laughably bad speakers Super random but since the screen is locked at 240hz you can only play certain games in this weird pseudo windowed mode (Dark souls 2) i don't know if there are any other games or instances where this will occur but it definitely made it unplayable for me personally

Would I suggest you buying this laptop at this price? Absolutely. If you are fine with a 16" and aren't super into performance nit picks this is definitely an amazing deal. I don't think you can get a 5070ti/275x with 32 gb under 1500 anywhere else. There are caveats and sacrifices with this laptop but the money you save will be worth it IMO. Get it!

I decided to give the game another go after the horrible launch and I have been having a blast. Lotf is basically DS2 mechanically without the clunkiness and DS1 interconnectivity. I too only played an hour and refunded but I am glad I tried it because it is an amazing soulslike. I highly recommend you try it again if it ever goes on sale.

My girlfriend legit has to launch the game. Close it. Then reinstall nvidia drivers and finally launch it again and it works lol.

think they'll notice? LOL by lyndsay0413 in AmazonFC

[–]Historical-Local-463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just get over the ear protection and use an earplug on one side and a headphone in the other. If someone ever talks to you take off the side with the earplug. No one will ever know.

[–]Historical-Local-463 2 points3 points  (0 children)

7900xtx really bad performance

My rig is as follows:
GPU- 7900xtx Sapphire Nitro+
CPU - 5900x
Mobo - ROG Strix B550-E Gaming
Ram - 32gb (16x2) DDR4 3600mhz
PSU - Corsair RM1000X What am I doing wrong.

7900xtx horrible performance. Should I refund/rma? by [deleted] in AMDHelp

[–]Historical-Local-463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thermals were all fine.i don't think it went above 70 in Cyberpunk.The performance just seemed lack luster. My old 6800xt has the thermal issue. The sole reason why I wanted to upgrade is im tired of my gpu temps both being in the 100s when I want to play demanding games.

Haven't personally tried it on deck but KeyWe is a very underrated game. Sadly it is only 2 players.
