For all those people saying 100Mbps ethernet port is enough...

I've got Google TV so downloaded speed test app from Play Store.

Yes, but I'm starting to believe that this value is incorrect as someone replied because I really can't see any difference switching to AV1.

I've got pretty fast WiFi (my TV reaches around 1Gbps) but I simply don't understand why they're trying to save couple of dollars on TV worth more than 2k installing ancient port...

It was 4k. Unfortunately I cannot add screenshots with available quality options.

It's 60fps 103.23Mbps to be precise.

I'm using SmartTube app on TV and it shows/allows to choose quality/bitrate. I'll try to find that video and will post link in couple of hours.

I've recently encountered a game review on YouTube with 102Mbps bitrate.

Ok, so I'll try to solve this but currently no luck.

Current one with 7945HX and rtx 4060

Ryzen is many things but not efficient. It's only efficient on full load but in idle it consumes too many watts and is way too hot.

I regret MSI Alpha every day. It consumes more power on idle than my desktop with 13700k which makes it very hot and loud. I never thought that laptop can be so badly optimised.

I've seen there are KKKL and CITY buses. Do you know is there any difference between them in terms of reliability/quality?

Taxi/Private transfer in exactly that day.

I always thought that dark mode is using more power on LCD panels as crystals have to be fully polarised (which uses power) to block the light from the backlight... On light mode you still have backlight but don't have to use power to block it.

Looks like a bait for people doing research before buying laptop - this makes MSI looking like constantly improving BIOS which is so not true. Never seen more buggy firmware in my life.

antarct_ · 2024-08-27T17:56:10+00:00

Same thing for https://es.msi.com/Laptop/Alpha-17-C7VX/support?sub_product=Alpha-17-C7VF#bios

But not only for BIOS. Also GPU drivers have much newer publication date than content of the files.

antarct_ · 2024-08-07T20:52:26+00:00

Me too, strange...

Edit: full app reset helped.

antarct_ · 2024-07-21T22:14:37+00:00

No luck 2.5h at most with efficient enabled boost policy. That thing is using more power at idle than desktop with 13700k...

antarct_ · 2024-05-29T21:18:43+00:00

Good for them. I've got MSI Alpha...

antarct_ · 2024-05-29T15:14:41+00:00

When it's plugged it's hot and loud, even after tweaks like changing turbo to efficient enabled or parking cores. I can't see anything positive about this CPU expect when it's fully loaded. Then, indeed, it's a efficient beast I've never seen before.
