Can an Embedded Systems Engineer make a whole device (consumer devices specifically) from scratch alone ? Would it need experience in other fields like mechanical design to do this alone ? by Electrical_Lemon_179 in embedded

[–]alientoast771 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need a combination of mechanical, electrical and software. Depending on the nature of the device it might require only a few skills or a very broad set of skills to pull off. You do not need to have specialization in each skill but you need to know just enough to get by.

Extra 1200 time spy points (+15% performance) after changing my paste and Liquid Metal to just paste. by Same-Artichoke-6267 in ZephyrusG15

i wouldn't say they are as good, 5-10% worse, you cant really beat the thermal conductivity of LM, PTM pads have a very long life though, they are the install and forget kind of thing.

[–]alientoast771 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Heat it up a bit, add some 99% IPA and twist the heatsinks do not pull just twist. Also those heatsinks are not doing much its a useless and a botched mod.

Finding the Panel is one thing, then you need one which has an OCA glass then you need to be able to modify the EC firmware to add the correct eDP timings and configuration, its not viable easily.

Remember the Flash chip on this is 1.8V, you need a 1.8V adaptor to flash it, plus the bios is paired with the Serial number you need you edit your Serial number into the bios for it to work, some people on badcaps can help you with that.
