  1. I want to say that I appreciate your response and will take what you said into full consideration when finding a windows laptop. And yes, I have to realize that compromises have to be made in some areas when buying a windows laptopn. Anyways, thankyou for your well thought out and professional response.
  2. Hello. I recently bought the MacBook Pro 16" M2 Max (38 Core/32 GB/1 TB). This is what I like about it: Battery Life, Nice Screen (love everything about it but it would have been nice to be a touch-screen and higher refresh rate), Build quality (feels sturdy), Stays COOL when surfacing the web and the fans don't kick on. When it's on my lap, it doesn’t get hot. The keyboard also feels very nice. My question is if anyone has experience with using a Windows laptop with these qualities. Considering I spent around $3500 (USD) on the MacBook, that will be my budget. The reason for wanting a Windows laptop is because it's Windows. I bought the MacBook because I wanted to give it a try, love the hardware but not the software. My requirements are what I stated above (what I liked about the MacBook Pro) including portability (nothing too heavy). The latest hardware (13th gen and RTX 4000 series). I would also like to do some gaming but it isn’t a huge deal. A type-C charging option on the laptop would also be nice. Yes, there are plenty of websites giving recommendations but I want to hear from actual people who have knowledge of it.
  3. The P cores go to 5.1 and E cores to 4.3. Was using the Intel Stress test software.
  4. I put a pea sized drop of thermal paste, all connections are good, the fans are spinning, and I took the "foil" off. The aio pump ramps up when it does get hot. Could it be a software issue?
  5. Hello. I built a pc like 3 days ago. The parts are the Cooler Master NR200P MAX (case bundle with power supply and AIO), Zotac 4070ti, and i713th gen, and Asus ROG Strix B660-I motherboard. Im on Windows 11. When Im watching youtube videos, CPU temps are around 25-35 degrees Celcuis. When downloading steam for example, temps go up to 101C. Also when scanning for viruses using windows bit defender, temps go to 101C. Using hardware monitor to see temps.
  6. I am planning on buying the Lenovo Legion 7 AMD laptop. It has a USB Type-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2, DisplayPort 1.4) port. I am wondering if I can buy a Type C to display port cable, one that transmits a display signal of course, and connect it to an external monitor. I am planning on buying the LG 27GL83A that is 1440p 144 hz. Is there a compatible cable that will give me 144 HZ and allow g-sync on the external monitor when I connect the cable to my laptop?
  7. Thats what I did. In the BIOS, the Boot #1 is my NVME. Its saying to boot off a bootable device when I disconnect the HDD.
  8. My hard drive is making a weird noise. I shut my computer off, disconnected the hard drive and rebooted my computer. It said that there is no bootable device even though my nvme is my bootable device. I checked the BIOS and it said that the nvme is the first bootable device. I connected the hard drive back (fully wiped with no data on it. I recently backed up my data because of the noise and deleted everything on the HDD) and it booted up. What should I do?
  9. Hello. I have a iPhone 6s plus with a cracked screen that I can to replace. I took the phone apart and put it back together, I plugged in the charger to see if everything was ok and it was (the screen showed an image). After a while I opened the phone back up and took the screen off and then put it back on. I put all the connectors in the correct place but when i went to turn it on, the display didn't show/open. My question is if there is a way to check if my logic/motherboard is ok. I think that my screen is just messed up. So, is there a way to see if my board is working, without the screen connected?
  10. Hello. When I start up my Forza Horizan 4 game, it loads up and then closes after 2 seconds. When I first got the game this didn't happen. I took a break from playing it for about 3-4 months and the problem started. I looked for hours on forms looking for solutions but nothing worked. I reinstalled windows but still didn't work. When I looked at event viewer I got this "The server Microsoft.SunriseBaseGame_1.437.664.2_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe!SunriseReleaseFinal did not register with DCOM within the required timeout." If anyone could help, that would be great.
  11. I just want to have the latest one. Is there a reason not to update it?
  12. Hello. This is probably a obvious question but I will go for it. I want to update my MSI Tomahawk Max motherboard BIOS. My BIOS right now is 11/7/2019 and the latest one is 6/15/2020. My question is if I need to download all the versions after the one I have (there are three versions after mine) or do I just download the latest one?
  13. Hello. I am planning on buying Noctua fans and connecting it to a Corsair Commander Pro. I want to buy a fan controller because I don't want to use the motherboard fan headers. My question is if I can control the RPM of the fans in the Corsair Software (iCUE). Thanks in advance.
  14. No. But I had it in this orientation for about a month and had no trouble before.
  15. Hello. My Samsung 1 TB Evo Plus Temps are way to high. My computer shutoff and when I rebooted and looked at Hardware Info64, the temps are crazy. This hasn't happened before and I was using the 970 for 4 months. When I mounted the GPU vertical (which was about a month), the temps were still good until this day. I was watching YouTube and loaded up Valorant, which I did many times before.
  16. Hello. I was watching some videos on YouTube and decided to check my temps for my CPU (R7 3700x) on hardware info. The temps were all over the place, on average 47 Celsius and as high as 58 Celsius. But when I looked on AMD Ryzen Master, the temps were on average 37 Celsius, sometimes going up to 41 Celsius. Should I be worried? What software should I trust? My CPU cooler is the Corsair H150i XT Platinum.
  17. Hello. I am planning on getting the NZXT Kraken Z73 AIO. I also want to put 3x 120mm QL Corsair Fans. My main question is if could connect the power cords of the fans to the AIO fan power splitters and will the fans show in the software (the NZXT or Corsair Software)? Thanks.
  18. Oh. We'll that makes me feel better. I thought mine was over heating. Thanks.
