Heya folks,
Been awhile since I last posted. Finally saw a 17" version of a laptop with a 3070 Ti (new Ionico) and was hoping someone had some experience on maybe like the 15" or a previous version of the Ionico laptops in terms of how effective standard laptop coolers go - the last laptop I got was the Defiance 4 years ago and even with a laptop cooler and an undervolt we still had some issues keeping it cool over a medium-length gaming session.
Have these been more successful with heat dissipation?
Also as a side question in terms of the NVMe SSD - The Samsung 970 is slightly cheaper than the Corsair, however I do know that the Samsung is quite a bit older. Which one should I go for? Or are there better options to choose from what they have available?
Appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance!
