Oooo that deals with it nicely. Thanks! I`d prefer a new laptop, I guess with an external sound card the focus switches to being fast enough to crunch data sets, and having a decent enough graphics card for 3D modelling and gaming. I was thinking 4070 but there are also 5060s/5070s. Will I get...

Hi, its my final year on a design, computer science, and software engineering degree. I need a new laptop and I`m thinking of the following: i5/i7 8 - 12 cores 4600 or 4700 RTX 32 GB DDR5 512/1TB NVMI 15 to 17 inch screen - 1080/2k One area I am struggling evaluating laptops is with sound...

I purchase a Chuwi 360 Freebook a year back. I have barely used it, and it has spent most of the year turned off. It wont turn on, and its been plugged in for an hour. Nothing.

https://www.amd.com/en/support/downloads/drivers.html/processors/ryzen/ryzen-2000-series/amd-ryzen-7-2700x.html Your max memory speed for that CPU is 2933mhz.

You`ve dialled down the speed of the CPU to get the GPU stable. That in itself is interesting. Something is wrong somewhere if XMP is turned off.

Mmm, interesting. Mine does the same, and I`ve noticed many similar threads over the last few days. I have a: i5-13600k 32GB DDR5 6000mhz RTX 4060 I think it might be the memory speed or the Nvidia drivers are crap. I don`t remember my problem occurring before I turned XMP on, but I didn`t run...

Depends what mobo you pair it with, assuming you want decent stable OC.

Still overkill, even with those needs. If you were after a gaming rig right now, to last 10+ years, with everything set to ultra, I would be recommending to you a i5-13400. For 5 to 10 years a i5-12400. Gaming is mostly quad core at the moment, a few will take advantage of 6, even less 8. The...

Have a look at this: https://store.chuwi.com/products/corebook-x-i5-1235u. That`s about $500 USD. i5 for audio editing. The battery life still not the best though, depends on how much you want to save 500 bucks.

The i5 14500 is still utter overkill. Its 14 cores! That`s overkill for present day gaming, with a load of other things open at the same time. If you are in the UK and want to be sure we are telling you the truth then how about email CCL Computers customer service, tell them your needs, and ask...

Yes, I have one of their touchscreen ones, I recommend them. That is a very good laptop. Solid, stylish when you see it, it says quality in the same way that an iPad does. The extra 4GB of DDR5 will sort your integrated graphics out no problem for your needs for years to come, and you get...

Whats your CPU and motherboard?

If you are 100% certain you won`t be doing gaming then your proposed build is overkill. Its a gaming rig. i3/N100: For the internet, watching films, light gaming, and running applications like word and excel. i5: For gaming, light programming, light rendering, and light streaming. i7+: You...

In bios graphic settings is the GPU disabled? If not does it show up in task manager?

Speed and capacity of each stick please.
