The motherboard is the problem then. Even an H chipset board supports K suffix CPUs, CPU support is an Intel thing but for why HP sells overclockable CPU on a system that doesn't let you do that, honestly they don't care because someone is going to just judge the product purely by the names and not investigate deeper.

Software band-aids like this always trade something for something, but in this case I think you can set the delay so short that it's almost impossible to feel the extra latency. After all you're blocking repetition of input, not the first input.

None of which is caused by Windows OS itself. But if you can remote access into your desktop if needed, there's nothing wrong with going for a Mac.

I mean your keyboard seems to have every button you need already. I don't like the only Fn key on the right because my right hand is controlling my mouse, suppose it's a keyboard for lefties? But if you're fine with it, it's not a problem. QMK/VIA is just key mapping to the max, it's not necessary for programming.

Think of water pipes with information as water and PCIe lanes as the pipe. A 16 inch pipe is going to allow more water flow than an 8 inch pipe right? and obviously the 16 inch will be physically bigger. However some times they will have x2 connections on x16 slots or cut one end open for cards with x16 slots to fit in, but their max connection speed is limited by the connection. For B550, think of having only a single 16 inch pipe for inlet but many 4/8/16 inch pipes as outlets with control valves, it allows each outlet to get the most water output they are rated for but wouldn't if they are asking for more combined than the inlet could provide.

Maybe it's overheating? Monitor its temperatures. You have an iGPU in there don't you? Try take the card out and play Elden Ring on the iGPU and see if it shuts down

It's not just phones and tablets, PCs don't have hardware AV1 decoding before Nvidia 30 series, AMD Navi 2X (RX 6000 series) and Intel 11th gen. Desktops wouldn't be bothered much but laptops will face the same problem.

7th gen and 11th gen. Honestly I dont think 14th gen is that disappointing compared to those two

Get tier D or better

If restart doesnt work, you'll have to RMA it. It's a laptop with everything integrated, not much you can do.

Lifting from one side as in picking it up with one hand? Didnt notice any noise other than plastic squeezing against each other. Did not try press down on the speakers.

I think it's pretty quiet. Typical low profile membrane quiet.

You might have to choose the boot drive in the BIOS again but that's it.

Sounds like you turned sticky keys on. It's a feature in the operating system.

what benchmark is that? They blacklist some like Furmark because it pushes cards too hard and breaks them despite staying within power limits, and blacklists can be expanded. Try an actual game instead It could also be an out-of-date Afterburner problem, OC software like this has to communicate with the driver so a driver update could break OC software too

But default power limit of a 12400F should be 65W, not 75 or 60? Either way, they are adjustable in the BIOS. Exact wording differ between companies but it should have "power limit" or "PL" in the name, say turbo power limit or PL1, with a number input. You could set it to whatever you want, I think the maximum allowed for a 12400F is 117W but Intel's not enforcing board makers to follow power limits because higher power makes them look better in benchmarks.

Did you follow instructions of the PDF file that comes with the BIOS download?

If you're satisfied with the current performance, just stick to it?

I think they are all too light for new hardware to be put into either category By looking at the average of many games we can get an idea of what a balanced system would look like. If some games hit the bottleneck on either side first on a balanced system, then we call that CPU or GPU bound.

Will you game on it? Hardware performance wise the pixel is at least a generation behind. Not much of a problem if you dont play demanding ones.

2nd gen Intel systems should be new enough to have UEFI. It could be a bug in the BIOS but prebuilts arent meant to be upgraded so expect no support from companies making them.

what about the display outputs you used before putting the graphics card in? Some of these prebuilts only have 25w power capability to the PCIe slot (essentially a x16 slot wired like an x4) so a card expected 75w wouldnt run

How did you check system latency in the first place? Besides I doubt you can feel the difference between tens of milliseconds without using electronics of some sort so it doesn't matter in the real world. What does matter are things that take seconds, minutes if not hours to occur, say playing a video game. That's where the gains are

SATA could mean two things, the name of a port and name of a data transfer standard. Your SATA port on the laptop only accepts SATA transfer standard, an M.2 to SATA adapter only changes the port but not the transfer standard because M.2 port can take either SATA or NVMe transfer standard. This means if you buy an NVMe SSD and use the adapter, your laptop simply would not read the SSD. A M.2 SATA SSD + adapter would work, but that's extra cost for no performance benefit So dont bother with NVMe or an adapter, just use a 2.5" SATA SSD.
