Alcro, I had a problem with two-finger gestures not working but i solved it quickly. I uninstalled the drivers AND checked the box where it says to delete the driver software from the device, rebooted and ran windows update.
Step 1: Open Device Manager. Expand Mice and other pointing devices to...
So I finally got my Octane and let me tell you it has so far been perfect and right as I was expecting/hoping it to be. Am very pleased with the machine and the flawless, professional service from PC Specialist.
I am going to attach the specs and some photos.
Pros: everything works perfectly...
Look ok? Will most be used for editing, photography, very light occasional gaming.
Anyhting I forgot/should modify?

Thank you Oussebon. I will not be gaming much at all, but i just want to keep a sort of gaming option for the future when i hopefully will get a bit more free time! Basically i am still leaning towards the octane With a gtx 2060 and a 9700 or 9900k processor. Is there any other laptop at pcs...
Thanks for the info Oussebon, but for now I'm geared towards a laptop. Would you choose the Octane as a chassis? and which processor should i couple with a gtx 2060 to avoid overheating? keep in mind i live in malta and today december 16 its 21 degrees celsius with near 100% humidity. i will let...
Skyder thanks again. I am getting the laptop as sometimes i do need to have to move with it, like on the terrace, in the garden or in bed, where i do have power intakes close by but i could not do that with a desktop. Lets say its a question of comfort! Although this is a chunky beast! I will...
Spyder, no this will be moved rarely so weight and battery life are not an issue. I read all about how thirsty this beast can get!
re the 4 k display, i guess i could use an external monitor, yes. Can i ask why you would opt for that setup though instead of getting the 4 k display on the laptop...
Of course if you think i should opt for a different chassis, please specify. What i am looking for is power and speed, screen quality and all the things you would need to work with photo editing and media (multiple tasks) and very light occasional gaming.
i would also like to know if the...
Thanks Spyder and keyness. I guess I could max everything out but then the heating factor would come into the equation, no? I mean you wouldnt want to have all that goodness only for it to g et damaged a few months down the line, right?
re the screen, in your opinion i should opt for 4 k oled...
Thank you. I saw this video review on youtube but its from 9 months ago, thats why. There, the keyboard light was so weak you could hardly see it. Im glad it should have been addressed. Hopefully someone from PCS can confirm too? I am leaning towards getting the octane vi 17....
Ok I guess what I would like to have here is a general consensus on what would be the overall preferred laptop for gaming and photography on these forums. Money is not a factor. I am a bit confused on which one to choose as all look good and fast, but having spent several days reading reviews on...
I saw a video review of this from 9 months ago and they showed how the RGB keyboard light was very weak and hardly noticeable. Has this been updated or improved since then? Thanks
