  1. Using my old laptop I hate for folding at home with a bit of optimized heat dissipation and airflow. 27686 point perday mehl LaptopAsus x550v and why I hate it i7-6700hq 4c 8t base 2.59ghz and of boost 3.5ghz (overheats) Gtx950m (not working and overheats). 8gb ram. 240gb cheap SSD. Display 15.6" 1366x768 60hz with really bad viewing angles. Ineffective cooling solution for 120w. Horrible battery life 30min for gaming when the GPU worked and 45min when it didn't 3hours just normal office work and 4hours when underclocked and undervolted to around 1ghz (workable). Has a loud coil whine (sounds like a dieing hard drive which it did had one point) which I get tinnitus form when working late hours. Has a dark red letter font on black caps and no back lighting. The keytravel was ok but had a lot of wobble. Had so much bloatware when I got it Trackpad sucked ass always had to use a mouse had dead spots after a year Started with windows 10 had to reinstall four times. Then used 4 to 5 Linux distros to finally switched to windows 10. The first year. Two week in owning I had send it back for the power delivery frying took 4 weeks to get it back then the hard drive just spinning at Max rpm even after reinstalling windows got that replaced took 3weeks. The second year warranty ran out and the laptop is barely used other and simple coding for School.(Got an AMD apu up and running ) The third year the charger died ( I think it had additional lithium ion battery in the charger) didnt replace it untill the apu died then abandoned the laptop when I got a i5 2500 optiplex ssfx form factor and got a gt1030 4gb gddr5 end of that year (0.1% bottlenecking) The forth year got built a ryzen 2600 and rx580 8gb dextop pc and started to under clock the laptop to 1ghz successfully and undervolted -500mv longest used battery life is about 4.5 to 4.7 hours TLDR- Only thing I have to say is that it was selling for $650 brand new from microcenter this lost my dad's trust in microcenter and lost mine in Asus, in making a shity laptop. Ask me if I need anything to be clarifyed. I wrote this 3 in the morning on a phone, so there is a lot of spelling, grammar and, punctual mistakes my bad.
  2.
