    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Ram setup for Octane II (Clevo p775DM1G)

    Hi, I need to upgrade the ram of my system to 64 GB which I use for cryo-electron microscopy - (datasets in the order of 0.5-2 TB), NMR data analysis and large amounts of curve fittings and image processing (e.g 2000+ Boltzmann equations in one dataset). I am unsure on what is the best...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST ESD damage

    Hi, I was stupid enough to try and install an m.2 drive without removing the battery on my laptop (on a carpeted floor, to add insult to injury...) The predictable result is that a spark happened and now there is no power to the motherboard. I can see some circuits in the mobo being scorched...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Drop in GPU performance

    Hi, I have a 4-year old laptop which lately has started to drop in performance (specs are in my signature). I noticed in 3DMark that the decrease is mostly due to graphics performance (physics test, which if I understand is CPU-based, did not change at all). The drop in graphics test scores is...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Black bars on Windows apps

    I am having a pretty weird issue since 6-7 months back. Never paid much attention but now with the 1903 update it kind of escalated. It all started like this: Then everything changed when the 1903 nation attacked : Seems like Metro-depending menus and store apps are affected by this bug...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Boost clocks of the Octane II Pro (p775DM1G)

    Hi all, I had a question regarding the boost clocks as I have seen this issue referenced on a couple reviews. Does the Octane II Pro use the boost clock at all while extended GPU loads? Usually, it is at 65ish degrees when on full load, but it is always stuck at 3.4 GHz, when the boost clock...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Clevo fan control alternatives

    Does anyone use a fan control tool aside of Hotkey with clevo laptops? I've found it quite limited, especially on the fact that the custom setting does not allow to set a fan curve and caps at 80%; I'd like to be able to set a fan curve which caps at 100% if the temps reach 70ºC or higher. Is...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST P775DM1G (Octane II Pro) low performance in GFX/CPU

    Hi everyone, I posted this to an RMA to PCSpecialist, but I am curious as per if somebody else has had this problem. The laptop arrived home yesterday and I noticed that after setting it up, I was having quite lowish fps for a beast this size (15-20 in Fallout 4, where benchmarks on this...
