Thanks - I have to say since swapping the thermal paste for the kryosheets, even under heavy strain my laptop doesn't even come near the previous temperatures. I don't even fully turn up the cooling pad, opting to only run half the fans (nearest the air intakes).

I completely missed the link! Think I read that post on my phone on the tube - I will post the dump file next time I can replicate the BSOD - thank you!

all good advice thanks - I will give it a go. It certainly wasn't happening before I think there were 2 driver updates in relatively quick succession from nvidia so hopefully that's the cause.

You are right sorry - the GPU hits maximum temps of around 74dC and hot spot around 82dC note: i edited OP for clarity

I have recently replaced the thermal paste with kryosheets, and the laptop temps have been fantastic - never above 90dC for the CPU and 75dC for GPU [edited]. It could be a driver issue, I suppose I can try rolling back the nvidia driver to the previous one. I did recently update the drivers...

I have noticed that when I have HWMonitor running, I occasionally get a BSOD crash quoting a nvlddmkm.sys problem. Does this happen to anyone else? It appears to be sporadic, sometimes it happens the moment I close the program other times when it is running.

Hi all I have finally managed to get some time this weekend to install the kryosheets. Firstly, as someone who has never done anything beyond taking off the back plate and dusting the laptop, I was absolutely kacking myself. I started by unplugging the two cables connected to the battery...

FYI thermal grizzly have a size guide for the sheets: https://www.thermal-grizzly.com/images/downloads/SizeGuide_Kryosheet_TGU20231005.pdf

Ok thanks all, will order and sounds like a weekend job! Just to confirm then I can buy the larger one and just cut it to size for the dies on the GPU and CPU, correct? Noting from the description that it is conductive so presumably need to be extra careful when putting it in...

I have just run the Furmark test again out of curiosity, and again GPU temp settles around 76dC...just wondering, as the CPU and GPU are effectively sharing a cooling system, could it be the CPU temp (90+ dC) that is actually causing the GPU to get hotter than it would normally when playing an...

So this is the temp after 1 hour of playing starfield - as before. hit peaks of 87dC on the GPU this time. Any thoughts?

No probs just thought I'd post the update in case someone else has a similar issue.

Hi I do have a cooling pad, which is a Klym one, not sure what the model is which I use when gaming and also when I experienced the 86dC temps on the GPU as mentioned above. For the Furmark and Cinebench tests above I purposely did not have the cooling pad - I simply slightly elevated the...

Ok so I have to say I am a little bit perplexed. I gave the laptop a quick air spray earlier today (just through the vents- it did not look dusty at all) and I also just updated to the Nvidia drivers that came out yesterday. The temps are hitting nowhere near where they've been for the last...

OK will do - just to confirm, should I set the control centre profile to 'game' or 'turbo'?

FYI - I think I have sorted this - I had the THX set to 'THX Spacial Audio' and switched this over to 'THX Stereo' and it stopped happening. I assume it must be a bug of some sort.

Hi all I have been going on a bit of a journey with my Recoil laptop, and have noted that my 3070 has been hitting 86dC whilst playing graphics heavy games, with the 'hotspot' temp hitting 104.5dC. I had emailed the PCS support team and they've confirmed that whilst these temps are still...

Hi all I have a Recoil bought in 2022 which I am super happy with, however, I've been experiencing the following issues and wondering anyone has experienced the same, or hoping someone can give me any tips on how to resolve this: The laptop comes with Realtek Audio (stereo speakers) as well...

cheers! posted!

Hi all, I have recently received my brand spanking new laptop, which so far has been great. However whilst I have somewhat of a technical brain (I am an engineer) I am not super clued up on electronics and IT. I've noted that whilst gaming (Wasteland 3, all settings to max), if I set the...
