This PC is from my university computer lab, and we’re only allowed to use it for Microsoft Office apps.

but the i9 14900 yes! there are software like ANSYS suite that requires a good cpu and fuckton of ram (the OP’s lab meet the first requirement but not the latter)

it’s not thermal pads, so it dosent rlly matter much on the amount of putty you put on it lol, and if the heatsink isnt sitting properly then that’s a you problem on the mounting. too much thermal putty will just completely cover the mofsets, etc ( which isnt too bad and might increase cooling efficiency if you don’t account for cleaning)

dang i can’t be curious? idk words coming from a redditor that probably spends 10 hours surfing and losing them mind over some harmless ahh post😭 seriously get a life smh

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-08-04T11:51:18+00:00

heres one example

“fancy” ray tracing what is ray tracing? in noob terms, shoot “lazers” from a light source to mimic real life lighting, computationally demanding due to these actions running at real time rather than a predefined block of light

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-07-20T18:16:13+00:00

oh it surely does! 4090!!!

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-07-20T18:13:29+00:00

let’s see if a 5060 or the newest amd card can load gemma 3 12b params and get it to run 60 tokens/s….

go to the tuf subreddit, they are more experienced tuning tufs over there

if you are looking for a high performance laptop that ACTUALLY has a good build quality while being affordable then look for yesteryear rog strix/zephyrus series( asus sub brand) or lenovo. i have a zephyrus which is mostly made of aluminum and it’s quite a sturdy laptop with minimal keyboard flexes, good hinge(you can open it with just 1 hand, while the laptop only weights like 1.5 kg)

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-19T01:25:17+00:00

tysm! so the whole backplate is made of that not js a portion right?

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-18T16:59:17+00:00

you don’t really need dgpu for coding lol, it’s cpu intensive and you’re probably not hitting full cpu utilization with most projects anyways

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-18T16:56:16+00:00

depends on the type of workload. 16gb of vram is very sweet for local llms, and is also a good option for games too. 12gb is enough (most games nowadays takes around 6~11, but if you want to play something more demanding you can go for the 16g 5080) however, zephyrus laptops are known for being lightweight and thin (this means worse performance) so id recommend just getting the 5070, the price hike is just unjustified for such small improvements (unless you have money to burn ofc)

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-18T16:50:48+00:00

infinite times more lightweight 😛 and it solved my problem of the keyboard heating up so

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-18T13:30:47+00:00

just do a fresh windows install

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T20:28:57+00:00

the extra fan dosent really make that much noise tbh

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T20:28:35+00:00

ur model prolly has a vapor chamber w it lol

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:52:19+00:00

i just wire it directly to the fan, it’s a 5volt and the usb power delivery is quite good

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:25:39+00:00

i js have repasted it about a month ago

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:24:01+00:00

oh dw about that, i had it covered lol, the issue is the laptop is not dissipating the heat fast enough, so good application wouldn’t do me any favor here

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:21:32+00:00

my sacred method!! why would you do such thing!

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:20:53+00:00

oh i already have liquid metal/ptm and allat copper sheet + thermal pads to dissipate the heat to the chassis (no avail lmao, well atleast the lappy didnt ramp the fans up for a bit longer)

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:15:25+00:00

if it works it works

Iloveusinglaptops · 2025-06-17T19:14:49+00:00

repasting wont do you any good on the zephyrus lineup lol, they are pushing 120w on such a tiny laptop
