Ionico BIOS Update

SpyderTracks

We love you Ukraine
You are right. I should do repaste as soon as possible. Is there any good video tutorial about how to do repaste properly? I know there are tons of videos on youtube but this Tongfang / PCS chasis never tried it before, so maybe if I could find any video from you guys would be grateful. Thanks!
Any laptop is the same, some use a combined heatsink that covers both the processor and GPU so you have to do them both, some have individual heatsinks so you can do each separate but the process is exactly the same. If you need a manual ask PCS, they should be able to provide one.

Hi people and PCS family,

I've been waiting for this moment for a long time and it finally happened. After a long wait and tons of emails PCS finally send the new BIOS to me. (It was 1.07, now it's 1.09) And the result is significantly amazing! I finally be able to use dGPU function instead of MsHybrid thus games runs smoother than ever. Like or not, I tried on the latest Battlefield game which is notorious about the optimization. I've got +~80 FPS on the server has 128 players. Used to have ~45 FPS before dGPU. I created a topic about it last year and got lots of comments about why would I need a newer BIOS or why would I need dGPU instead of MsHybrid function. Here's why I wanted it. To use my device on full capacity. Who wants to use limited capacity PC? I wouldn't. Anyway, I took a gamble and it worked so far. Hope the PC stays stable as long as it can.

Big Thanks to Mr. Robertson who helped me ALOT and guided me step by step how to flash the BIOS without breaking anything.
