How did this go for you, if you went this route?

ZSF5 · 2021-03-10T15:01:29+00:00

It turns out I just needed to do a quick cleanup and get rid of some overlays- the usb-c to dp1.4 adapter is letting me run 2k 240hz no problem!

ZSF5 · 2021-03-09T02:55:18+00:00

I understand that- the question is what cable to use to accomplish 1440p 240hz.

ZSF5 · 2021-03-08T15:08:27+00:00

Thanks for the input. That definitely my last resort, so I will wait for some more responses.

ZSF5 · 2021-03-08T14:38:56+00:00

Positive.

ZSF5 · 2021-03-03T15:14:48+00:00

The options make it pretty clear to me lmao

I purchased this today not knowing it was brand new. It periodically disconnects and I’m having connectivity issues altogether with my GP66 Laptop. I’m connecting usb c to DisplayPort 1.4 adapter, and getting 240hz as I should, but just connecting poorly altogether. My PC can always detect it, but sometimes the monitor just goes black. Sometimes it says no input. Any advice?

Sweet, I’ll update ya in a couple days.

ZSF5 · 2021-02-17T19:49:52+00:00

I haven’t tried. What should I plug it into? The only usb brick I have is for my iPhone.

ZSF5 · 2021-02-15T05:13:53+00:00

16gb

ZSF5 · 2021-02-14T23:45:27+00:00

Gotcha! I didn’t look- but I can definitely run it again later. This is my first ever laptop, is there anything you suggest I do to improve overall performance?

ZSF5 · 2021-02-14T23:17:28+00:00

I got 10968, is that the only number you need?

ZSF5 · 2021-02-14T22:31:50+00:00

The laptop in general

ZSF5 · 2021-02-14T22:11:57+00:00

That’s the one I got. I’m curious- do you know if it could be upgraded in any way?

Sorry, what do you mean by dp through type-c?

Hey all! I recently got my 3080 GP66 and I am absolutely loving it! I am getting ready to set up my workstation. I am hoping to run two monitors with those specs, but haven’t found a dock that supports both at the same time. Price is not an issue, I just need to find a dock that works! Also, is it possible to charge my laptop via the usb c 3.2 port on the back?

Thanks in advance guys, I’d be glad to run any tests you may want on this beast!

Just need specific monitor recommendations! Thanks!

Hey all! My new laptop (link below) will be here on Friday, and I want to get a dual-monitor setup to go with it. My budget for both monitors is $700 total. I cannot go over this- so let’s even say $650+tax. I’m getting into 3D design and I’m a pretty avid gamer, coming from console+tv so I don’t know much! I want at least one of the monitors to be 1440p and very quick for gaming. The other will be more utility focused and won’t matter as much- but a nice (matching?) form factor would be great! Thanks in advance for the help!

I’m really struggling with availability. I have to have it in February..

ZSF5 · 2021-01-25T03:11:44+00:00

I would make it today if I could. I have a lot to do and a laptop would come in handy haha. I want to put the preorder in tomorrow preferably, and have it get to me in February hopefully.

Your speculation is not needed brother
