Morning everyone,
I'm possibly interested in getting one of the recoil gaming laptops as an upgrade to my now nearly 4 year old system but on investigation several concerns have got my not sure if I want to buy yet and hope hat you guys can help clear things up.
In regards to the intel core I9 14900HX processor there is a lot of debate around the degrading issue that is possibly present (some say it's only the desktop version affected and others say this is too), my question around this is I am wanting to know if anyone has bought any of these laptops (specifically with the rtx 4090 in case this will affect the load of the system) and ran into any issues with regards to game/system crashes, system instability and out right failure?
Also if so has anyone found a work around without loosing too much performance to stabilize it so the system will last (only thing I can of the top of my head think of is limiting the maximum processor state in the advanced power settings to a lower number) unless PCS have already done something to make sure that if this is actually an issue that it does not happen with their systems.
I'm worried about the idea of spending 3K on a new system that might not last a year under heavy gaming conditions due to the rumoured issue and from what I have read up to now there is no definite answer to if this is a problem or a "software rather than hardware" and more importantly if there is a solution for mighty worriers like myself (other than go to AMD as PCS don't have many good options for laptops in this respect) that it would never become a problem but still give near top performance?
Also a random question regarding the water cooler, does it get supplied with e bottle of distilled water for it or do you have to get that yourself? seems a bit steep a price for what is inside the cooler (watched a video on YouTube where they took one apart to see what is inside) for it not to come with a 500ml bottle with the kit.
kind Regards
David
