HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA "it has 16GB of RAM! It can run chrome now!"

 

3.45GHz is a weird number. I no like that number. Also that's probably an ES sample, since under such light load it didn't appear to be throttling its clocks, which it's supposed to (yes yes, there ARE times when throttling is okay, or even desired!)

I have finally moved to a desktop. Also my guides are outdated as hell.

Take that no like and throw at the fanbois. I pray to god, that they upped the cooling so that they don't thermal throttle a 15w CPU. 4k screen aka 0 battery life rip. 1440p version plz. Get a leather dbrand skin and it makes it look like a really really expensive MBP with chroma lighting.

Sir, I'm disappointed in you. You expect Razer will do these sensible things lol

it turbos up to 3.5Ghz, and yeah it should be underclocking, but that could be because it was plugged in (e.g. power management set to performance)

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

Desktop: X99-PC

CPU: i7 5820k

Mobo: X99 Deluxe

Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1080

Storage: 1TB 850 Evo, 1TB HDD, bunch of external hard drives
PSU: EVGA G2 750w

Peripherals: Logitech G502, Ducky One 711

Audio: Xonar U7, O2 amplifier (RIP), HD6XX

Monitors: 4k 24" Dell monitor, 1080p 24" Asus monitor

 

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.
