    The respective reps say its fine to cross vendor update BIOS. Not really necessary but you can do it at own risk

    Have you tested it in discrete mode (intel graphics disabled)? Theres an option for it in bios. Mine is a 1080p so I cant really help you with a 4k display

    Yep I know, but mem overclocking performance is much less significant than core and I was sorta lazy :P

    Gave myself a heart attack when using the memory overclock option. Added the memory overclocking info in Post 4 (forums wont let me extend Post 2 any longer) Or you can read it down here

    Wow, came back after exams to see 1300 views to this review of the laptop. Decided to have a chill day off, kicked back and relax with some music with M40x headphones and wow this laptop blew me away. Expected average to poor onboard audio like my previous GS60, but the vortex was like good...

    https://www.clevo.com.tw/clevo_prodetail.asp?id=1198&lang=en The vortex (PB50RF-G) apparently supports per-key rgb but is an optional feature and pcspecialist doesnt have the per-key rgb keyboard type. The connector should be the same, just the keyboard support for it. I personally cant be...

    Yep -250mV undervolt and is stable at least with aida64 for the 30mins I ran it for (Stressed CPU/FPU/Cache). I'll definitely test out your method for stability, but give me 2 weeks from now. Will update once I get it tested!

    Hey Im still here. But Im unfortunately not going to be able to play/test the laptop more due to my final exams which finishes at the start of Jun. I hope the information/benchmarks are enough so far to provide insight on the Vortex IX (which seems to be a very capable laptop). As for daily use...

    Yes there is a 17 inch version PB70RF of the vortex (15 inch is PB50RF) but currently pcspecialist doesnt carry it https://www.clevo.com.tw/clevo_prodetail.asp?id=1213&lang=en I think he meant you can get the Recoil III TONGFANG GK7CP0S(17") or TONGFANG GK5CQ7Z (15") from another retailer.
