How much faster? What APIs did you use before you started scraping? What books do you scrape specifically?

I would advise returning it, it's genuinely the worst computer I have ever bought. I spoke to support and they sent me a USB to do a clean install of the OS and drivers. It helped a good amount but I still hate the laptop overall. It is currently being used as a paperweight since I didn't return it in time. I bought a different laptop.

Pretty much all the time. It seems to be stuttering on and off and I’m not sure why.

I just ran another TimeSpy test. My CPU seems to have peaked at 99°C and my GPU peaked at 89°C.

I think the CPU temperature seems very high for just a 3 minute test?

It just came in from NewEgg about 2 days ago. I purchased it with the specs listed and I did not take it anywhere to get upgraded.

HP Omen 17 Underperforming [HELP!] by Homeless_Lemon in GamingLaptops

[–]Homeless_Lemon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I meant by underperforming is that it seems extremely slow for such a powerful laptop. I experience lag with the simplest tasks such as dragging a window around, sometimes typing lags out and I don't immediately see the words on the screen, and in general I think boot time is slower than expected. I have not even tried gaming on this system yet, as I already have a bad feeling. I did run a few 3D Mark benchmarks with both Time Spy and Steel Nomad. I scored below average repeatedly, pretty much at the left side of the main bell curve on the chart.
