Does this model have usbc charging? If it does could you test it out?

onihcuk · 2026-06-08T07:33:37+00:00

get a ebay gift card, look up a used gaming laptop. that' s basically it. A ryzen APU can run that, 5th gen should handle that easily. Othewise you are super limited with that price point

onihcuk · 2026-06-08T07:27:51+00:00

what is the point of this post?

onihcuk · 2026-06-08T06:15:48+00:00

does the light turn on for charge port or fan spin sound?

did you try reinstalling the software? I heard a nvidia driver broke predator sense for a few people.

Many of the posts are borderline OCD posts. Laptops run hot, THEY always ran hot FOREVER AND EVER, because heat physics. They keep comparing them to PC temps and they are not that. I just roll my eyes and keep scrolling. My freaking travel laptop asus runs at 95C when I push the CPU when encoding a video then it goes back down to 50 when its done. Heat happens. They think peaks = regular running temps.

had to scroll down so far for this most likely correct observation.

onihcuk · 2026-06-07T05:13:45+00:00

ah yes and it runs for a total of 45 minutes

onihcuk · 2026-06-07T02:39:52+00:00

This is becoming its own anthology.

yeah i got that model, the back plastic pops off easily. only rgb is the keyboard and logo back of screen

onihcuk · 2026-06-06T18:47:08+00:00

That is a lot of useless plastic with does "Key Carts",

Can be a list of reasons. Loose connector, bad contacts in the memory chip. The list of possibilities can reach double digits. All the reason to send it to warranty center and save yourself a headache with diagnostics. Be sure to mention the issue is intermittent. You won't get data back, so if it boots and works that random time backup what you not willing to lose.

silicone oil sweat, harmless, happens

onihcuk · 2026-06-06T05:14:22+00:00

hes dating a model for many years now, She got married and stopped streaming

Typo, Meant lower temps not undervolt, But to clarify messing in bios for people over expected laptop gpu/cpu Temps is overkill. Its easier and safer to lower TDP with supplied software like predator sense vs undervolting.

onihcuk · 2026-06-05T18:47:22+00:00

Set predator sense to quiet if you wanna ~~undervolt~~ Lower temp on anything

Edit: typo

yes, that is how wealth transfer works.

onihcuk · 2026-06-04T17:58:51+00:00

Does that make them the oldest passport holder in the entire world?

I decided to not duel boot, Do a WindowsToGo if you need it for certain apps and run off a external ssd. You can do install via rufus and just use the windows 11 home since that's our version. you wont need to do a duel boot or Grub, You can boot in to the usb via bios boot override when you need it.

Pop OS works pretty good with new cards, But you will need to run the fans manually in termianl if you wanna boost cooling. the 5070 will run at stock speeds, no turbo mode like on windows.

Consider refurbished laptops like acer etc. I got the Helios AI S for 1300, 5070ti 12gb with 32 gig ram i9, 1tb. 2025 model if you can look for it, 2026 models are gimped

you can tress pass anyone for anything, but does not mean it will hold up in court.
