    PCSPECIALIST Recoil III 17.3" RTX 2060 performance review

    If you actually understand what screen response time is and can tell them apart, you should be able to find that kind of very specific technical information on your own or at least find similar Clevo chassis and infer it from there. :)

    PCSPECIALIST Wake on Lan & Fusion Laptop

    Does it HAVE to be wake on lan? I personally didn't even know you could do that, I usually just put my computer to sleep and schedule a task to wake it up. To be fair my use cases are pretty trivial, since most of the tv shows (e.g. game of thrones) and UFC cards air at 2-3AM in the morning, I...

    PCSPECIALIST Video stuttering

    As always the first thing to do, is go into safe mode or safe mode with networking and see what that does. It's ideal in your case because it's happening with both online and offline media. So you can experiment and get reliable results. See what happens and then you can take it from there

    PCSPECIALIST Recoil III 17.3" RTX 2060 performance review

    If you're worried about peak performance then just get 17.3" version for a peace of mind. It's 5mm thicker, taller, wider etc. Every little bit helps. Also get one of those laptop coolers, Notepad L2 from PCS orwhatever youfind online. They're not gonna be this gamechanger, major help but it...

    PCSPECIALIST Wake on Lan & Fusion Laptop

    Check your power plans from power options. You have to go -> advanced power settings, sleep and then allow wake timers. You might have to enable that

    PCSPECIALIST Music production setup

    Spec wise they're all mediocre. You did the right decision by choosing PCS as the vendor to buy from. Now all you need to do is figure what all those computers have in common that is excellent for music production. You're in the right track

    PCSPECIALIST Would this configuration be good or is there anything need changing

    Looks like a beast right now and definitely will be one in the near future as well. I don't really know why I'm thinking this but either your RAM size is not matching up to the CPU or your CPU is a bit of an overkill

    PCSPECIALIST New Laptop Advice Please

    Yeah don't get defiance series if you care about performance. Chassis is thinner, weaker gpu, more premium price because it's harder to engineer thin powerful laptops etc. Also it's only 300g lighter compared to Recoil series. No one is gonna break their back because of extra 300g if they decide...

    PCSPECIALIST Please Help Gaming and photo editing Laptop build

    Partitions are one way to organize things. You could also just use the default folders in your windows user profile. You know, the ones that used to be My Documents, My Music, My Pictures etc. Partitions are really for booting multiple Operating Systems from the same drive. If you wanted to...

    PCSPECIALIST Build me a gaming laptop?

    I disagree 100%. RTX 2080 MaxQ is no better than RTX 2070 mobile and you're paying so much extra for that laptop for negative performance gains. Check this link out, it's got basic benchmarks, I don't know how reliable those numbers are but it's out there...

    PCSPECIALIST Defiance III excessive CPU activity / heat on BOOT very slow to load W10 login prompt

    I don't know how good you're with computers and what your time constraints are like but if you have a 16GB usb stick, you could install Linux Ubuntu on it and use that as a boot drive to test some more. Also safe mode with networking is useful. If you have absolutely zero problems on safe...

    PCSPECIALIST Gaming PC help needed.

    Yeah that's overkill. Think of it like having a can of soda and asking Hulk to open it for you. You'd have to be multi-tasking savant to be able to utilize all those 8 cores and 16 threads. The better thing to do would be to listen OLLMOR Sensei and get i5-9600k and RTX 2080. That's...

    PCSPECIALIST Build me a gaming laptop?

    Here is one I'm planning to buy very soon, so I'm copy pasting it here. Chassis & Display Recoil Series: 17.3" Matte Full HD 144Hz 72% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i7 Six Core Processor 9750H (2.6GHz, 4.5GHz Turbo) Memory (RAM) 16GB Corsair 2666MHz SODIMM DDR4 (2...

    PCSPECIALIST Advice appreciated!

    Looks pretty solid spec-wise. If I were you I'd definitely buy Intel 9th gen CPUs but I understand that the difference in performance is negligible and the price hike is not worth it. If I can reccomend one change, it's the warranty. Get the silver warranty instead of the standard one. It's...

    PCSPECIALIST Poor RAM Performance (Channels)

    I'd just let XMP do it for me. It's not like you'd have the expertise to fine-tune all the clock speeds and timings etc. I mean who does. Most CPUs come with standard speeds like up to 2666 MHz, so if anyone wants to go beyond that, they have to use XMP profiles to unlock the higher speed...

    PCSPECIALIST Poor RAM Performance (Channels)

    I found this on the same website Also you say ram speed should be 3000 MHz, but the benchmark says it's 2133 MHz. Might wanna take a look at your bios/eufi

    PCSPECIALIST Ethernet not connecting?

    Do some speed tests. With ethernet cable the latency, the ping should be lower and download speed higher. Also if you're using ethernet connection, you might as well turn off the wi-fi antennas. No need to waste cpu cycles

    PCSPECIALIST Tied between Recoil II (RTX 2060) 17" or Proteus VI (RTX 2070) 15"

    Wait, you overclocked your CPU and the temps improved? How does that work

    PCSPECIALIST Defiance III excessive CPU activity / heat on BOOT very slow to load W10 login prompt

    I literally had this very similar problem last week when I installed Windows 10 1903. Pretty much the same symptoms, the os would start, get to a black screen with spinning circle at the bottom and it'd stay that way. In my case the problem was Intel's integrated graphics card. I force shut down...

    PCSPECIALIST New laptop around £1250

    I don't wanna be captain obvious over here but PCS allows you compare different laptops side-by-side. Like you said, it mostly gives you the differences between the chassis size, height/weight etc, what ports it has and some other details. You could compare them by having 2 tabs open, going back...
