The Lunar Spark R in the review section comes in at £999 and is equipped with an RTX 3060 - a fantastic card at 1080p and capable of 1440p on most titles with slightly tweaked settings. I've noticed that your budget is in euros though so if you're shipping outside the UK that may be something...

Even with a battery installed you can always hold the power button down for 6 seconds to immediately power the machine down. You aren't held to ransom by the charge left in the battery. I've never experienced a desktop or a laptop where this method doesn't cut the power.

A wee double post here. I ran 2 stress tests using default settings and the modified settings and here are my results. In both screenshots the values on the left are determined by my cursor position which is shown by a white line. The first test was default settings and the second was my...

I have an idea for you which I sometimes use on my own laptop. Using Intel Extreme Tuning Utility you can underclock and undervolt your CPU. On my rig with the same CPU I can lower the temperatures by at least 10 degrees doing this. There is no noticable difference in performance since most...
