Always adjust the fan curve for the laptop before gaming. or set it to gaming mode or whatever so the fans ramp up properly. otherwise if it's waiting to ramp the fans up until you hit 99C, then you're still losing performance. fans should be at 100% @ anytime over 80C.
I live in a city where the nearest micro center is 8 hours away. I was in a city with a micro center during thanksgiving, but I didn’t have the chance to check it out because I was too busy visiting my dad in the ICU.
I got the 15.6” model, i7 11800H cpu, 3070 GPU (85w) and it’s very good at 1080p. Cost £850, plus I spent £150 on another 2tb ssd. The cpu runs too hot though (90-100 degrees) even at low loads. It’s unacceptable and not good in the long term. So, I changed the settings to 99% max usage on the cpu, so it wouldn’t turbo-charge to full power. That keeps the temps down and my fps still seem fine.
i bought gp66 for additional 10% money, but i think both are worth the money, expecting 25% more performance from 140w 3070, for a 3d visualier its worth the extra money, coz i want this to power 5 years or more.
Put something below the back or you laptop! (behind) It really helped me! My GPU got a temp decrease of 5-10 and my CPU also a bit but I don't really look at it! Try it out! It may be worth it if you haven't done it yet!
I'm running my 11400h with 2 disabled cores to reach higher all core turbo frequiencies at 4.3ghz with my overclocked 3060 MSI GF66 katana. The bottom cover is super bad designed since it covers the fan intake. Either take the backcover off or do as I did and cut the plastic off so it can recieve fresh air. I went from 95c to about 75 degrees. Also lift the computer up a bit does a huge difference.
@@thizzobishi Games usually don't utilize more than 4 cores. Yes I do get higher fps and better frametimes. The CPU uses 15 watts more if all 6 cores is running at max turbo wich increases heat for no extra performance.
when the bottom cover has poor airflow i just drill holes where they are needed and i use small self adhesive hooks from dollar tree to raise the rear of the laptop for better airflow as well. been doing this for years and it works great.
i had the same exact laptop. play destiny 2 or world of warcraft on it and you'll see 30-50 fps in battlegrounds "pvp" and in dungeons. i took mine back and opted for an asus rog strix with ryzen 9 5900hx and a rtx 3060. way better
I got this one in an i7-12650 , RTX 3060 variation, and it's been great so far, plays everything i throw at it in at least 1080p 60+fps with high or ultra graphics settings, for 1200$. I'm very satisfied.

You know, I hate ads but I like micro center. Even though I do not live in usa, I know their business model provides reliable and fast pc components on the cheap.
Not personally a fan of the 3050 ti, especially when it is paired with something like the 12700. It is super underpowered for the cpu making the specs rather imbalanced, if they made them with a 12400 it would make more sense. Otherwise it just seems like a cash grab, forcing people to buy more expensive components that they aren't going to be able to utilize.

IdeaPad gaming 3.(2021) Is the best budget laptop right now. The new IdeaPad model is a bit overpriced right now. But just be careful when buying you don't buy a model with a crummy 11300h cpu. Always go for a 5600h or a 11400h. Should cost the same as a trashy 11300h or be 10$ more expensive.

hi toasty bros can u do a review on a best buy laptop its the ASUS - TUF Gaming 15.6" Laptop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 - 512GB SSD - Eclipse Gray
The laptop is amazing but the temperature scares me it should not be close to 100° c my current laptop is a lot weaker but it only stays around 40 or 50° c in my specs are HP pavilion gaming laptop 2021 version AMD ryzen 5 5600h with a 1650 with 24 gigs of RAM. And I have my laptop in a cool environment and I would be scared if my laptop hits 80°c. Oof
ik this is purely anecdotal, but everyone i know that has owned an msi laptop has had issues with it within a year. their build quality feels absolutely terrible, I've tried a few of their laptops and the hinges feel like they would snap if you breathed on them too hard.
14 inches is small, but it's an ultra portable laptop that's significantly faster, lighter, and much better battery life. I'd sacrifice screen size any day for a more portable device.
Just returned my g14 zephyrus. The fans turn off completely at low loads of daily use making the laptop hot even when you're just watching a video on TH-cam. It ran games great and has a nice screen but it's just not worth it imo due to how bad it is at dissipating heat when idle. After playing a game, it would remain at like 60 degrees even after exiting the game. It has either bad build quality, cooling system, etc.
My lenovo legion dont get hoter then 68c on gpu or cpu at full load … and the fan are not loud … simple secret liquid metal//undervolt and reduce the turbo by -.3 ghz
The problem of theses MSI laptops (GL or GF) of this generation is the hinges... they screw automaticly when you open and close the laptop and break the shell or the sreen. They have good specs tho but keep in mind MSI's laptops are REALY fragile .😑 And the CPU is overheating frequently if you don't clean it frequently... that's why they are cheap

Always adjust the fan curve for the laptop before gaming.
or set it to gaming mode or whatever so the fans ramp up properly.
otherwise if it's waiting to ramp the fans up until you hit 99C, then you're still losing performance.
fans should be at 100% @ anytime over 80C.
and remember for most laptops the GPU and CPU share a heatsync, so allowing the fans to work more, will improve the cpu and gpu.

I have had a msi ge62 apache for nearly 6 years and it has been great.
$200 more and you could get a zephyrus 14... 6900hs, 6700s 1tb gen 4 ssd, 2560x1600 120hz display.
14 inches is small, but it's an ultra portable laptop that's significantly faster, lighter, and much better battery life. I'd sacrifice screen size any day for a more portable device.
Just returned my g14 zephyrus. The fans turn off completely at low loads of daily use making the laptop hot even when you're just watching a video on TH-cam. It ran games great and has a nice screen but it's just not worth it imo due to how bad it is at dissipating heat when idle. After playing a game, it would remain at like 60 degrees even after exiting the game. It has either bad build quality, cooling system, etc.
about the getting warm issue i mean what laptop do you know doesn't get toasty a lil bit they are compact that's bound to happen
My lenovo legion dont get hoter then 68c on gpu or cpu at full load … and the fan are not loud … simple secret liquid metal//undervolt and reduce the turbo by -.3 ghz
@@fredericlapointe8953 does that impact performance at all tho?
@@Mowinemdown777 for gaming never seen a difference
The problem of theses MSI laptops (GL or GF) of this generation is the hinges... they screw automaticly when you open and close the laptop and break the shell or the sreen. They have good specs tho but keep in mind MSI's laptops are REALY fragile .😑
And the CPU is overheating frequently if you don't clean it frequently... that's why they are cheap
had it for a few months not a single problem so far
I just bought this laptop like 2 weeks ago
How to fix low sound speaker... please tell me
that cpu temperature is terrible
Can it run vr games?????
dont like those kind of hinges..
Bro you didn't see the CPU temp it's 90c always
Sir my microcenter is 1.5k miles away im good
I had to book a 17 hour flight just to buy a PC ಠωಠ 3090ti and a Core i9 12k
At this price point, the Msi Apha 15 is a much better laptop in terms of performance/cooling/build quality. AMD Ryzen 7 & Radeon 6600m
I have a Katana GF76!
Sold out at my store
This is I would say the best “budget” gaming laptop it runs all those games and compared to all the other scam laptops this one is good
$1200 is not very budget
if you want something budget I would get a Hp Pavilion
I got Acer Nitro 5 with Ryzen 5600H, 95w RTX 3060, 144hz IPS display, 512gb m.2 nvme ssd, 8gb RAM for $650. I upgraded to 32gb dual rank dual channel 3200mhz RAM JDEC with 22-22-22-52 timing since XMP wasn't an option and added 1TB WD SN570 for another $150. $800 total for a beast. It's crazy how pricing fluctuates depending on when you buy.
