Interesting Cooling Setup

[Burry21]

I recently bought the Recoil 16.

It's a powerhouse. My first time buying from PC Specialist was in 2018/19, when I bought a 1 GB RTX 1050TI laptop and thought it was a beast because it had an NVIDIA Graphics Card (Little did I know).

6-7 years later, I have the new Recoil which is pretty specced out. My recommendation: If you think you have just enough RAM, a little bit more isn't so bad because you never know how many softwares you will be running around the same time 😅

That being said, I have Da Vinci, Photoshop and VSCode open at the same time sometimes and the laptop has never gone above 45°C, even with the external (shown) cooling Fan off. High recommend this as a workstation.

I recommend buying right the first time. A good investment is always worth it.

Could have just used the external liquid cooler made for that model...would probably be much more efficient.

Just to warn you, this is impossible UNLESS the CPU is thermal throttling / power limited so heavily that it's clocking right down. You're unquestionably not getting anywhere near available performance.

Under full load, the CPU will be at over 75c even with the included watercooler.

I'd suggest the system is HEAVILY throttling, you're missing out on most of the power available.
