    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Recoil 4 - After 10 days of usage

    @Trisconway Hey! I'm still loving it. I play a lot of Apex legends on a 2K monitor. Fan is a bit loud and everything else is amazing :) I do (very rarely, once in maybe 3 weeks), get some intermittent issues with my WIFI connection (so my network card). But they seem to fix themselves within a...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Recoil 4 - Weird wifi issue

    Hi! I recently got a Recoil 4. And since yesterday, I'm having this weird wifi issue. My laptop was connected to the 5ghz network (like everyday), but it randomly got disconnected yesterday and I was unable to connect again since. It's able to connect to the 2.4 ghz connection but even that...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Recoil 4 - After 10 days of usage

    Hey folks! I recently got my Recoil 4 on the 20th of May after a faily long wait. Overall, I think I'm pretty happy with my purchase but keep having a doubt if I could have gone with the Vyper instead. My config: I think the laptop looks quite good and is well built. I've done multiple long...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Nova/Recoil - gaming laptop

    I was able to get the Gaming center software after speaking to PCS, but each time I set my keyboard backlight settings, they seem to work only until I shutdown and seem to reset after that. Does anyone know why that would be the case ?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Nova/Recoil - gaming laptop

    Yeah, tested all the other keys others seem to be working fine. I'll contact PCS then Also, @SpyderTracks I had done a clean windows install after I received it and that must have wiped the gaming center. I wasn't able to find out the download link. Do you have it handy ? I'll run those...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Nova/Recoil - gaming laptop

    Makes sense. I'll try these out and post here. I have just realised tho, that my windows key (on my keyboard) isn't working. I also tried https://www.passmark.com/products/keytest/ and it doesn't seem like that key is registering. Could this be a software issue ?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Nova/Recoil - gaming laptop

    The recoil I ordered finally got delivered today! Everything seems fine. 30 minutes of Apex legends on my qhd monitor gave me around a 100 fps and temps seemed to top at 83 degrees. I had a few questions 1. I couldn't find the control center app in my PCS downloads (The program that I need to...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Brand new laptop, games are totally unplayable

    I have a file called "08_nVidiaVGA_W10.zip" in my PCS downloads. You probably need something similar unless it's a case of missing PCS downloads.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Brand new laptop, games are totally unplayable

    So was the chipset driver wiped off because OP re-installed windows ? or it wasn't there in the first place and the OP should have installed it first before doing the updates when he initially turned the laptop on. I'm just asking because I anticipate a new Recoil laptop this week and wanted...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Vyper 3 15.6" - Missing Game/Fan/RGB Centre

    @AX10 off topic, but how are you liking your new laptop? Also, did you have to install windows completely? or just put a license key in ? I recently ordered Recoil without windows as well and I think I read somewhere that they'd still install windows 10 for testing.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Ram for Recoil 4 15''

    @Scott I seem to be saving only 4 quid with the PCS option, plus my laptop if already building. I think I'll stick with the Intel M2. Evo is too expensive for me unfortunately, I'll probably take a second evo when I choose to upgrade storage. @Scott Do you think 16 gb 2666 Ram is ok for my...
