Yeah, it's a matter of parts availability, which is not helped by how most laptops' motherboards nowadays arrive with CPU and GPU already soldered on it.

The 980 pro in indeed not yet available on the SSD menu, and just today I asked PCS about it. I was told that if you send the quote of your configuration by email to pcspecialist, specifying how you would prefer to replace whatever SSD you select with the 980pro (plus the size), they may, or may...

I had similar issues with my previous laptop, and temporarily solved it by underclocking (not undervolting) the GPU core and memory frequency by using MSI afterburner. It may be a long shot, and I strongly advise you to do proper research first on how it's done and how safe it is, but if it does...

I can actually imagine many ways to do that. Planned obsolescence is not exclusively software related after all. My initial, and already solved, doubt was if air vents on the CPU side were possibly blocked to increase the temperatures that CPU and close by components, decreasing the lifespan of...

It may have not been intended as disrespectful, but neither did it come out as neutral either. In any case, I get what you mean, but my observation and doubts came out mostly of the tangible effects that planned obsolescence has done in the past decades, while conspiracies tend to come from...

I know it's not definitive proof of why the air intakes on the Ionico and Recoil chassis are partially blocked as well, and I do agree one should always keep a critical mind, given the shady tendencies and big companies are often using, but considering the little we can now, without being actual...

I came across some other posts about purposely blocked air intake vents, and it seems is a matter of airflow being impacted in a way to cool down other components, like VRMs, SSDs and RAM modules. Freeing up those intakes did benefit CPU and GPU temps though, at least in the video that Hardware...

Now that's a reason I can get behind, which also makes me want to test if plugging the same section air vents on the GPU side would affect related temperatures. I guess I will have some "science" to do, once I finally decide which laptop to buy.

I am inclined to believe the same, but then again, the position of fans and of the lateral and back vents is all symmetrical, with the only real difference being the path and number of heat pipes between the GPU and CPU. A difference that I can't really imagine having much impact, if any, on the...

Yeah, suspected so. Now I really hope there is some actual good reason for that design choice. Something to do with optimizing air flaw, rather than some "1,5% increase in structural integrity" kind of deal.

Hi guys, I have been trying to decide which laptop to purchase, basing it off mostly on thermal design, for added longevity, and while looking at the Tongfang chassis for the Recoil 15 and the Ionico 17, I have noticed the weird trend for the vents, on the CPU side, to be have 2 full rows...

Si, installano una copia non autenticata di windows. Tu poi decidi se usarla, convalidarla con un codice, oppure formattare e reinstallare la versione di windows che preferisci.

Che tu abbia potuto constatare, il sistema di raffreddamento è stato migliorato rispetto alla versione precedente con intel di 10° gen e rtx 3070? Perchè dal video non sembrerebbe, ma potrei sbagliarmi. Altrimenti, se ti fosse possibile, sarebbe già molto utile anche solo poter sapere i...

Grazie per averci confermato il TGP. In merito alle ram, controlla che le lore specifiche siano 3200Hz a 1.2V, perchè potrebbe invece darsi che vadano a 3200 solo se a 1.35V.

Cheers, man. The difference in performance of the faster ram is not necessarily anything great, just wanted to let you know ;).

Io invece non capisco perche gli ssd 980pro sono disponibili per il recoil, e non per questa versione di Ionico che dovrebbe avere lo slot pci 4x. Probabilmente una svista.

Also, it would be better to add the 30days dead pixel guarantee, to avoid getting a bad screen. (totally worth the small price IMO) If you are already familiar with repasting laptops, I would even advise to save up on the "ARCTIC MX-4 EXTREME THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY COMPOUND", and instead buy a...

Si, e in parte lo capisco pure, ma per chi come me gioca ancora tanti titoli che non supportano DLSS, sarebbe assai fastidioso essere forzato a risoluzioni QHD con relative performance sotto i 60 fps. Per non parlare poi di quanto poco se ne beneficia di 1440p in un monitor da 17". Preferisco al...

Se il modello avesse avuto un dissipatore un pò più robusto, e avessero pure dato l'opzione di scegliere uno schermo a 1080p, mi ci sarei fiondato su uno ionico con i nuovi intel di 11sima generazione.. peccato davvero.

Un'altra cosa da considerare dello Ionico da 17 pollici, è la risoluzione nativa dello schermo a 1440p, che non è perfettamente compatibile con quella da 1080p alla quale giocheresti per avere almeno 60fps con la maggior parte dei giochi alla massima qualità. Io sono ad un simile bivio, in...
