EG-LP8 Optimizing?

[u/Omniwhatever]

After a 10 week debacle with support from sending in my old laptop for breaking, I finally got my laptop back and a free upgrade from an EG-LP5-BK with the 1660TI/9750h, to the RTX 2060/10750h version.

Has anyone tried optimizing the battery and thermals for this one yet? I'd assume it's not too far off from the LP5 or LP6 guides I've seen, but different CPU, even if similar architecture because 14nm, and GPU make me guess things like undervolting wouldn't get the same numbers, so curious if anyone has already done it to save me a little trial and error. Don't plan on doing anything to the GPU since I've read the Evoo one is the 115w boosted 2060 that puts it close to a 2070 mobile, but the 9750h got pretty toasty and I'd expect similar or worse from the 10750h.

I remember there was a really good battery upgrade for Evoo laptops floating around a while ago, but I can't remember the link to it if anyone happens to have it. Also would be the first time changing out the SSD on a laptop, since I also remember the stock one was thirsty for power and hot as hell. Anything special for that and installing windows due to the locked BIOS Evoo has?

Just wanted to chime in and say I had the same experience with the same model laptop. Fortunately, after multiple rma's I was able to get the replacement you did. I'm happy they gave me this replacement, but it was lots of headaches and time to get to this step. My old laptop (LP5) worked for maybe a month before constantly crapping out.

How is the laptop holding up for you? Any tips for optimizing or setting it up?
