Does your laptop make a squeak noise when it hits throttle temperature?

@Macco26. Here's the 2933 Ram Bios settings you asked for:

This is great for turbo and perfo demo, however what have you set for gaming where it matters in the real world? Did you undervolt this too?

@Macco26

Thanks. Yes, I cleaned the 1TB drive and created a new D:\ ~1TB partition. I now only have one OS. Rebooted several times to check and have surprised myself that it all seems to have worked. Feeling a little smuggly proud!

Ignore that. It has now swapped.

@Macco26 I have cloned the OS from the 1TB drive to the 500GB drive. I have gone into BIOS and can see both ssd's. However I cannot get it to change priority order to boot from 500Gb ssd? Any ideas?

Thanks Macco. Ok. I found an awesome video on youtube for how to clone a drive with Macrium Reflect. I share if anyone is interested: I will probably do this later. In the interim I would be interested to hear from anyone if they either support cloning or a clean install with my recovery usb...

Ok. Did your cc changes but no undervolt. Bit better: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/59611656

Cloning sounds more complicated. I have a USB recovery. I thought I could do some kind of clean install on the 500gb drive and delete windows off the 1tb drive?

Perfo difference between 500Gb and 1Tb drives is pretty small in attached image (slight write difference of 100MB/W) I checked BIOS in windows. Obviously doesn't say if I have dGPU setting but shows version: BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. N.1.07PCS04, 24/02/2021

Oh and the thermals seem good. Pics attached. Sfc, drives, CC and Firestrike:

Ok. So far so good. Love the laptop. A few points: PCS installed windows on the 2nd 1Tb drive and not the 1st 500Gb drive intended for the OS.... grrrrr. I guess they ignored the first drive to go for the fastest... Really want to swap it over but concerned by the efforts Angelo has had. Is it...

@ubuysa @andjef796 Ok. Just googled what an Elevated command prompt is... seems straight forward. Dont think I have been into a "DOS" type prompt since fiddling with config.sys and autoexec.bat (think that's them?) settings on my 486DX2 in the mid nineties.... may need to bear with me!

15.6, 3070, 32gb.

Thanks. What does sfc /scannow do? I guess it runs a scan but what's an sfc?

I should receive my Ionico 15 tomorrow. Normally when I receive a mainstream laptop I just create accounts and go. I do nothing special, I let it update itself when it decides to. With custom laptops, do you need to do anything special? It already comes with windows. I figure from many posts I...

Thanks for taking the time to do that Macco, its a great video. Hope to get my 15 on Tuesday. Good luck with your quest for Mux!

Thanks, that's really good to see and also to hear you played it wireless with VD. I'm looking forward to HLA very much. I loved HL2 and episodes. Given up waiting for HL3 but HLA more than makes up for that. What graphic settings can the ionico put out to the oculus? Med, high, ultra?

Wow you guys are amazing! I hope I dont have any issues but if I did I would feel so much more relaxed knowing the help and advice you offer! I know this is a forum but sounds like you may be giving up an evening to help a stranger (sorry Angelo, but you know what I mean). Edit: and I...
