g4m3r Raptropz

[tp4tissue]

They're kinda still way too loud to truly "Enjoy"


Tp4 remembers his first highend graphics carb, fx5800 ultra, then x1900 xtx, that thing went HairDryer mode by default.

Most peoples using these, burned them out, because the VRM was only 3 powerstages, and they hit 115-120C routinely.

Tp4 of recently melted the aftermarket vrm spring clip letting it go to 100c, (for science)


The noise really breaks the immersion in the games, it's just too much..

G4m3r raptropz nowadays are still the higher-pitched hair dryers they were.


Why hasn't ne1 done nothing.

YWith all the technology on the planet, no one has been able to solve this.

It would seem like,  the max that even a 16" chassis can dissipate is around 60watts before it goes hairdryer.

Touchscreens are RUINOUS for most laptops.

The glare is immense, and it's almost completely useless except for 2in1flips.

Ok,  Tp4 is sold, 

Asus zeph g14,   despite NUMEROUS problems.

It is the current best configuration in terms of usability, general quality of life features.


If only they made it with a slightly bigger cooling system. There's all this space taken up by the speakers.

Pros
-sensible buttons/ shortcuts, power profile key, this should be standard across all laptops.
- reasonably svelt, you don't hate carrying it around.
-- keyboard font's not ugly.
--- NON-touch screen, it's a big deal, digitizers are extra reflective.
---- good ports, left and right.
----- smart heatsink design with a passive dissipation fin edge, this radiates heat better under fanless mode.
------ speakers not trash, upfire tweeter + downfire woofer.
------- solid milled aluminum key deck.
-------- trackpad size and position well thought out, no palm issues.
--------- grounded power supply, no sizzle
---------- upgradable wifi card
----------- g-helper, if it wasn't for g-helper, the default asus app is AWFUL.


Cons.
-6500 rpm fan, wicked screaming
- low sustained turbo in real world
-- mechanical touch pad
--- trash microphone quality
---- trash webcam quality, no webcam slider
----- liquid metal <guaranteed point of failure>
------ fan pulls air from below the keyboard deck, direct dust INTO the keys. INSANE, why?
------- bios, weird power gate issues.
-------- oled, bad HDR near black tuning (lifted dark scenes)
--------- screen is not as bad as touch screen, but still pretty reflective.
---------- will not survive drop, this thing will die.
----------- Industrial colors, not cool.
------------ Nvidia drivers cause banding
------------- Out of the box screen calibrations are USELESS.
-------------- Always warm.
