  1. Do not overwrite an SSD, definitely not 7 times! It will heavily damage the drive. Use the built in secure erase command instead.
  2. Got any benchmarks? I had the exact same model of CPU, and now my dad has one.
  3. Hello, I have an HP Elitebook 840 G7 exhibiting a weird issue. When doing certain tasks on one of my external monitors (LG 27GP850), the GPU usage gets much higher than it should on Desktop Window Manager. This is most noticeable when playing a video on YouTube in windowed mode (it does not occur in fullscreen mode), but also when moving windows around fast. It also does not occur when using my other 1080p 60hz monitor. So far, I have tried Updating drivers for the GPU, from both HP and Intel's websites. Lowering the refresh rate from 144hz to 60 or 120 Updating to Windows 10 22H2. Using a different browser (Edge) Many solutions I have seen online for this mention some kind of bug with NVIDIA drivers, but this laptop only has Intel graphics (i7-10810U, intel UHD graphics).
  4. Have you tried swapping the two M.2 drives between each others' slots?
  5. Gigabyte just released AGESA 1.2.0.7 for my board, B550 Aorus Elite v2. An hour after updating I get the same stutter.
  6. Consider the Dell Precision lineup. Can be affordable on the used market.
  7. Happens for me as well. Gigabyte B550 Aorus elite v2, 5600x, latest BIOS (F13). Here's hoping for Gigabyte to patch it.
  8. Did you apply thermal paste, and how? Is the cooler securely mounted?
  9. Maybe once there's an actual shortage? Hard drives are available at the same prices as always here.
  10. My 970 runs Watch Dogs Legion around 50 fps at 1080p, so I'm guessing GTX 1050 or something?
  11. Then your best bet might be a new Thinkpad instead. T14 with an AMD chip for example, but that has upgradeable storage and soldered RAM. Which is more important, upgradeability or being thin and light? Those are a one or the other type of thing.
  12. What's your motherboard? If I understand Intel spec correctly, you will be unable to run it faster than 2933 MHz, unless on a Z490 or Z590 board.
