    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Benchmark Results Leaderboard

    Thought I'd do one of these while I'm testing/monitoring the CPU temps. It's been peaking around 95/96c on HWMonitor.. Would like to get that down ideally. Not tried the Custom Mode/PL functions in CC yet. Here's mine: https://www.3dmark.com/fs/31705058 Edit: Time Spy had it run into 97/98c as...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Performance checks after clean install

    Thanks for that, really appreciate the info. Will have a good read/watch later. Just out of curiosity what config would you have opted for? I wanted a system for both my production work and gaming here and there. Mainly production though as a lot of my projects get real heavy with a lot of VSTs...

    Oh I just meant in general going forward. I'll look into those things you mentioned. I do music production so my DAW will be on the main and I'm thinking I'll store all my projects and resources, on a 2nd. And I'll look into undervolting as I have never done that before. Thank you very much for...

    That's good to know, I'll look into this, thanks again. So to conclude, is there anything I can do to make sure I'm getting the best out of the laptop? Assuming I may have hindered the performance a little by fresh install.

    Ok I'll get that installed. The sequential seems all good, it's the random reads that don't seem to be inline with others. Though I am comparing with desktop benchmarks so perhaps they will perform better? How would I go about undervolting? According to the parts selection for this build, the...

    Ok here are the updated benches.. some better some same, some lesser.. confused at the SSD being low on the random reads compared to others. Other than that, are these reads ok do you think?

    Sure, see attached. And no, I have not installed control center. Is it necessary for performance?

    Hi all, really enjoying the new Recoil 17" - I did a clean install and hoping it's still performing the same as if it were untouched post shipping. Hope you can help as I see some figures are lower than others compared. For example, see the Samung 990 PRO with lower values than others, the fact...
