Okay I called - went through it with the great tech support guy who remoted in. He spotted the same thing as us using OCCT and went a bit more in depth into Eventviewer - it's limited by firmware so he's raised a ticket with 2nd line support to see if there's a newer BIOS or if we should flash...

Ah that makes sense. I hope they realise how amazing your support is on the forums! Will let you know how I get on with them. I've had a few items from PCS before (gaming laptop + gaming PC recently) and everything has always been dandy.

Yep it was taken right at the end of the stress test (literally ended it after screenshots). Edit: sorry, nope, no Windows 10. Just had W11 installed by PCS straight out of the box last week.

Yep!... Have I done it again... should I post after-shot too? I still have HWinfo open

Okay results hopefully below - couldn't see a way to export easily so have screenshotted

Doh. Apologies. Happily will rerun it. Having one of those days as you can imagine. Will reply separately when done. Thank you again for your help.

Mr Spiderman, I think you are onto something here (running since 20:32, 20:41 as of pasting): Prime95: Task Manager: HW Info after 10 mins (it was impossible to copy during the test itself):

Update on Issue #4: It appears to only exist when using Firefox. Of course it does! Paint happily accepts the newest thing copied to paste. I am going insane. It appears to now have resolved itself.

Thanks for replying of a Sunday eve, truly a spider among men. During this process I now have an odd Issue #4: using snip tool and pasting into here is actually not pasting whatever is in my clipboard. Clipboard (Win Key + V) shows my SSD. When I CTRL+V it pastes my CrystalDiskInfo test from...

Hello, recently ordered Elimina series (specs below) laptop from PCS... I have not had a good experience. Before I go back to them, I need to run all of this by anyone here with more technical knowledge than I. For reference, I bought this to use for work and playing some slightly out of date...

Is there anything else I really should make sure I get from the PCS download section? Apart from processor, GPU and Realtek drivers, I'm not sure what else I should be getting. I'm not sure how to check my chipset, or what some of the files are (RAID, VGA, etc drivers). Even more gaming was had...

Excellent news - the stutter appears to have totally vanished thus far. I'm yet to download any of the other PCS drivers except for the three audio ones (one zip and 2 .rar files). Should I be installing all of the drivers on there? I have noticed that currently my CPU seems a bit happier...

Right, have completely reformatted & reinstalled windows via usb. I did find somrthing interesting: the audio pop only occurs when Windows updates, it isn't present in a completely clean install while windows is doing all of its updating. I think it's from when Windows installed Realtek Audio...

Ah, in that case I will do a reinstall again but this time the correct way! Although that was already the procedure I followed with this new hard drive at the beginning of February (replaced the old faulty SSHD and installed windows via usb), just not most recently. For a bit of background on...

Firestrike 3dMark Benchmarks should be attached to this message, the URL for my test is also here: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/58124974? I did two tests because I forgot to save / view online the first one, I was so concerned with screenshotting! The URL is for the second test. Interestingly...

GPU Temperature was sitting around 50-60 degrees iirc. Bad news is: after 7 hours of uptime last night the system once again stalled to a slow crawl while idle & had random clicking / right clicking happening, all of which was miraculously resolved after a restart. I did a complete reset &...

Ah thank you again for the extremely helpful messages! Sorry, no idea why the picture uploaded in that resolution!! Link here to the actual photo (hopefully): Curiously I notice in the picture, perhaps because of the lighting(?), the small particles of dust look like sand in the fans. It...

I think you may be correct here Stephen! Since installing the newer Nvidia Drivers and giving it a few restarts (no idea why Device Manager thought was upto date) the problem seems to have significantly lessened, although I am only at 1hr30mins up time right now after giving the inside a little...

Hey Ferrari thanks for the reply! Appreciate it. I thought the same RE: Drivers. I installed Nvidia Geforce Experience and got new drivers but sadly the issue persisted after that. My next steps for tomorrow are: 1a: Figure out what triggers it. Scrolling back and forth in apps seems to...

Update I have managed to catch the stutter while Task Manager was open, with some odd results. The GPU usage was at 100% during the stutter (when I hit print screen) but doesn't appear to identify which program is the culprit.
