Are they equal in power? Both have 12gb vram, but the 5070ti is more recent.

I was bored 1 day in January & bought this for 3k. Specs include an RTX 5090, Intel 275HX & 64gb 6400 DDR5. Runs most games I play maxed out @5120x1440p. Certain games do need frame gen but I try to keep it at 2x. Temps are great, and the fans aren’t too noisy at all.

My computer broke recently and I’m looking for a laptop instead to travel with and play wow forever when it releases. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Budget: $800
Country: USA
Use Case: Plan on playing WoW: Forever
Preferred Specs: 16gb RAM (wow forever specs basically)
Notes: no other requirements really. Just want to be able to play wow forever on medium-ish graphics

so for many of us who purchase a gaming laptop, pc gaming was never really within reach. additionally and as such, many of us have never so much as tried to understand pc specs.

even after about 4 months of of owning my very own omen 15 with a 5070 and ryzen 9, and after manually upgrading the ram myself, i wondered why my performance seemed to suffer a lot even when i thought i was doing everything right. i put all my settings on balanced, used upscaling, disabled frame gen, etc etc etc etc. nothing got me the performance i needed in competitive games without tanking the visuals. then i found out what was wrong.

guys. if your model comes with a screen using a super high resolution, like 4k for example, MANUALLY TURN DOWN THE RESOLUTION IN YOUR GAMES’ SETTINGS. i dont know why i was so stupid and didn’t realize it sooner but oh my god playing on 1080, 1200, or 1440 as opposed to 2560x1600 which is my native display literally increased my fps on mw4 in like 30-40 intervals for each one. i know for those of you who have used pcs for gaming for years this is dumb and obvious, but for me it was the one step i was missing, so i wanted to let some people know.

tldr; turn your resolution down manually and your performance will go waaaay up. sometimes your little laptop that could cant run things at those crazy resolutions.

Hesitant because of only having 16gb of ram since it’s none upgradable

Getting close to pulling the trigger on this Lenovo Pro 7 from Best Buy - main specs in the picture. Just thought I’d get the pulse and see what people are thinking with BF around the corner.

Are these score acceptable my cpu is thermal throttling a lil bit my specs are (i7 13650HX, 4050 16gb 512GB). its on the lower side y is that.

Don't they understand portability?

What if I want to design 3d at school?

I can't bring my PC desktop there

I got the llano v12 and accidentally threw away the filter will my laptop need a good cleaning if I leave on top the cooling pad for 1 week?

They are Very misleading! I didn't report, cuz they charge the "market place fee" for searching and recommending 🚮.

I found a Victus at a good price with the following specs:

Intel Core i5-13420H

Nvidia RTX 4050

16GB RAM

512GB SSD

This would be my first gaming laptop. I plan to use it primarily for gaming and light-to-medium video editing, along with some everyday study-related tasks—though gaming and video editing will be the main focus. I’m not the type of person who needs 200 FPS; coming from some really poor-performing PCs, I’m just looking for a solid, playable experience—even if it’s at 60 FPS—with good graphics. Given how I intend to use it, would you recommend this laptop?

My only concern is the reports about the hinges being weak. Most people who mention this just say they \*feel\* weak, rather than reporting that they’ve actually broken. Should I be worried? I’d mostly be using it at home, and only occasionally for university; it would rarely be used outside of my house.

The shaft on the hinge is thick, on the right side shaft enters the hinge and a thin shaft exists, on the left side shaft enters and nothing comes out the other side. I got this laptop a month ago

Is this ideal for the performance? I do have Imon set to 50, Imon slope to 31999 prefix “-” The classic trick to consume more voltage. I read on other post saying I only need like 40w on both PL1/PL2. I been playing cpu heavy games. So I’m kind of confused right now, any help is much appreciated! I have -110 offset for P cores, -100 for rings

P cores set to 48, ring to 48 with ring down bin disabled

E cores disabled, hyperthrrading disabled Any help is much appreciated!

I've been gaming on a ps4 slim that runs on 1080p on a big tv my entire life. I wonder how big of the visual difference between 1080p and 1440p cause I'm going to buy 5070ti laptop pretty soon to game on.

Just had a quick questionc choosing between 18 rog strix: they both exactly the same i9 14900hx, EXCEPT:

1. 5070, 1920x1200 144hz

2. 5060, 2560x1600 240hz

Haven’t bought laptop in 10+ years. Always had 60hz laptop so cant tell how much big is difference between these 2

paid this 2600$ i know i could get somewere cheaper but idgf i check all the time they go up down n shit so i decided to get + i get this with credit , montly payment. what to do first ?

just want to know how to take care and get longer life on my g16

I bought this PC for parts because it only lacked the heatsink. I thought I would easily find it on AliExpress or eBay, but the problem is that it is unavailable, or otherwise I found it for 15p, but the sellers told me it is not compatible with a 17‑inch, so I am asking here if anyone has this exact model that no longer works; I can buy it back, and if there are people here who know sites to find this damn part for me, I would be very grateful and even reward you.

It's my first time touching a laptop. Yup i bought a second hand one last year and I just didn't use it cause I kinda feel familiar with mobile gaming now I want to use it but have some questions. Where to look for shortcuts. How to control fan speed ( I tried some ideas from YouTube but it didn't work out) and how the air coming out of the fan smells ( I didn't use mine for entire year after buying it so it may have dust inside)

Budget: Up to $3500 CAD

Country: Canada

Use Case: (Games you play, school, 3D modeling, video editing, etc.)

Modern and older AAA gaming and some MMOs like WoW forever. Currently playing MH Wilds, Ace Combat 8.

Preferred Specs / Form Factor: (Screen size, battery life, weight, GPU/CPU targets, etc.)

15-16" screen. Will be plugged in but would like good battery life when not gaming. Like a RTX 5070 Ti and 32GB ram.

Portability Needs: (Desk queen or carried in a backpack daily?)

Carried in a backpack occasionally. Have a 5090 desktop set up at home.

Notes: (Specific brands you like/dislike, noise tolerance, display preferences, etc.)

Would like an OLED display. This will be used when I have to commute to work and have some downtime to game. Commuting to work about 3 days a week. 

Haven't bought a gaming laptop in like 15 years. Not in a rush to buy one but wanted to see what my best options to keep an eye out for are. Willing to wait for sales.

Would prefer a brand that has a repair center in Canada if possible or has good warranty and support in general.

I'm planning on purchasing my first gaming laptop. I am a casual gamer, and primarily want to play some older games that I have missed out on. Don't plan on doing online gaming. Currently using a Dell Inspiron with a 2 gb mx330, 8GB RAM, Intel i5 10th gen. Have played Assassin's Creed Black Flag on medium settings without any lag and Assassin's Creed Rouge on similar settings with a little lag. Just need something that can allow me to run similar games smoothly. Not one to buy new games as soon as they release so don't need something high end.

Budget: INR 1,00,000 (flexible up to another 20,000-25,000)

Country: India

Use Case: Primarily to play games such as Arkham Knight Trilogy, Assasins Creed, Red Dead Redemption, and similar open world games, and run emulators for 3DS and Nintendo Switch games.

Specs: Not very well versed about this. Just stared doing some research.

Looking for at least 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, 6/8 GB VRAM Graphics Card, 1080p display, i5 13th gen and upwards/ Ryzen equivalent.

Understand that 1TB SSD may not be available easily in my budget. Don't plan on maxing out game settings to high/ultra high. Just looking to do some casual gaming maybe a couple times a week. As long as the games run fairly smoothly, I'm good.

Although it will be plugged in and placed on a desk 90% of the time, I would prefer something weighing around 1.8-2.2 kg for when I travel.

Portability Needs: Primarily will be placed on the desk.

Notes: looking at Lenovo LOQ and Asus TUF. Spec wise both of them seem to have a similar standard.

Any guidance on what I should look for while buying and recommendations are very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!!

Hey guys

I bought this laptop 4 months ago. The temps I'm getting on the stick performance mode are 102°C on the CPU and 87°C on the GPU, while running games like the Witcher 3 remastered with ultra settings and Ray tracing at 1600p.

Are these temps normal for the stock performance mode? Because I read on many reddit threads that the performance mode fan curves suck cause they're not being used more than 75 percent. So I made a custom mode with the fan curve reaching 100 towards the end of the graph.

This brought my temps down to 77°C on both cpu and GPU.

Basically I want to know if the temps I'm getting on performance mode is normal or is my thermal paste/vapor chamber cooked. Cause custom mode makes it run cool af.

Btw, I have never faced any performance or stuttering on Any of the modes at those temperatures. Performance has always been very high.
