Hi all, I've owned this laptop for approximately 4 years now and I was contemplating updating to Windows 11 for future-proofing with updates etc. Unfortunately, my PCSpecialist account shows that there are no downloads available for Windows 11 or from the Clevo support/drivers website...

Hi everyone. Earlier today, I was playing a game when I noticed that the bottom part of my laptop screen suddenly began to feel hot. I haven't noticed this in the past so I'm fairly confident it's a recent issue for me, and I've tried looking online for a potential cause/solution to no avail...

Hey everyone My laptop has been working perfectly since the last time I posted here. However, I decided to do a fresh reinstall of Windows the other day using the Creation Tool and everything went smoothly. I allowed windows to update the system with the latest drivers, and any software or...

Hey everyone! My brother is interested in buying a high-end PCSpecialist laptop since my experience with the Octane series has been great since purchasing it back in 2019. He immediately set his sights on the Recoil V due to the non-Max Q GPU's, G-Sync, , high refresh rates, thicker chassiz...

Hey everyone. The last time I made a thread, I had issues where the CPU was thermal throttling in seconds due to poor/outdated thermal paste in addition to other issues such as the laptop stuttering. Thankfully, those problems were completely solved and my laptop has been running fine ever...

Having completed my overheating issue, I figured I'd make a separate thread to seek advice on my last issue with my laptop. For the past few weeks, I've experienced mini-stutters when playing video games. Typically, it'd occur whenever something impactful would happen in the game, resulting in...

About a month ago, I decided to apply the Arctic MX 5 thermal paste to my CPU and GPU to my laptop as my laptop was over a year old at this point and the temperatures were starting to increase to noticeable differences. Thankfully, this re-paste went well and my laptop's temperatures decreased...

A couple of months ago, I posted a thread talking about how sound would play through both speakers and earphones when the earphone pin was fully inserted into the headphone jack. However, I have now got an issue where there is zero sound coming from earphones when plugged into the headphone...

I recently had an issue where all audio would play through both my laptop speakers and earphones when the earphones are fully inserted to the headphone jack. Strangely enough, the audio correctly stops playing through the speakers if the earphone's aren't fully inserted to the headphone jack...

I recently RMA'd my new laptop to get fixed, so I figured I'd use my older PCSpecialist laptop (purchased in 2014/2015) in the meantime. Unfortunately, when I switched on the laptop yesterday, I immediately noticed my mouse cursor stuttering (animations etc. aren't smooth anymore) across the...

I recently purchased a new laptop from PCSpecialist due to a positive experience with them in the past. When my laptop is working, it's absolutely brilliant and I couldn't be any happier with it. Unfortunately, in all of my games, I've been experiencing crashing/freezing where either the screen...

Hi, I've recently purchased a customised laptop for £2,000+. I amended one of the specifications and it states that it has been paid for, however I received an email to notify me that the sub-order payment wasn't authorised (using a different debit card to the original). Does this mean that...

Hello, this is my first post on the forum. I signed up to ask a question before I purchase a customised laptop (Octane 17.3). Like it says in the thread title, when you customise laptops, are they built inside the laptop before dispatch? Or do you have to assemble it by yourself? Thanks for...
