>buy laptop with capacity to only cool the CPU to ~2Ghz and GPU to ~500Mhz when under very heavy load (gaymen, 3d modeling, video encoding, ect) >complain about performance Why the fuck do people keep buying laptops for demanding tasks? Laptops are designed to be portable computers that let you do light work/web browsing on the go. Nothing more, nothing less.
Look at pic related, it's just fucking impossible to cool shit with those tiny ass heatsinks.
Samuel Thomas
I hear Gentoo is pretty demanding
Anthony Bennett
I have a fuck huge external fan my laptop sits on that lets my computer cool at full load
Luis Reed
>I have a fuck huge external fan my laptop sits on that lets my computer cool at full load lolno, try running prime95 on that shit and watch it dip to 2GHz, maybe even lower lmao.
Leo Campbell
What's it like being a dinosaur that doesn't understand tech?
Nicholas Rivera
I don't know, you tell me.
Wyatt Jones
yes
Nathaniel Wright
>that tiny heatsink can keep the most powerful laptop ever made cool
Wow
Apple just can't stop innovating
Brayden Cox
Is that an app?
Aaron Diaz
...
Anthony Ortiz
No, it's a tuba
Jace Wood
wtf
Robert James
>cool the CPU to ~2Ghz and GPU to ~500Mhz >cool to 2GHz >2GHz >temperature
Kevin Anderson
most manufacturers make low spec laptops with their design being a 'feature' so they can be overpriced and tards still buy them
you can buy a laptop with a 6700k cpu for the same price as a macbook lol
Cameron Harris
passive cooling is bae
Aiden Ortiz
this is no passive cooling but active heating
John Young
this. fucking lol what is OP even talking about
Nicholas Ramirez
throttling
Ethan Allen
Yeah, OP is trying to throttle us.
Jayden Murphy
I run prime95 and furmark simultaneously without significant throttling(no throttling if I control fans manually) on this piece of chink shit. It is possible, many OEMs just don't even try.
Nolan Campbell
>you can buy a laptop with a 6700k cpu for the same price as a macbook lol This doesn't magically mean it can run at 4GHz 24/7 under very heavy load you retard.
Blake Robinson
So it only throttles to 2.1 GHz instead of 2.0 GHz?
nice
Benjamin Richardson
I don't think you understand how laptop heatsinks work
Daniel Harris
>fan blowers blow on a tiny set of aluminum grills attached to the CPU by copper heatpipes >if cpu is at 100% load trying to turbo to ~3GHz they fail to cool the processor enough >CPU is throttled to ~2GHz Am I missing something?
Jason Torres
>expecting a mobile device to be as versatile as a high end desktop pc
Tyler Wright
>have 2670qm with base clock of 2.2ghz >runs at 2.8-2.7 ghz under load >80ish load temps
>mfw
Nathan Phillips
It just stops using turbo boost(I consider it throttling). 2.9 without it, 3.2 with it.
Carter Torres
I'm very tired and >if I control fans manually instantlly resulted in a mental image of user cranking a lever round and round to cool his laptop.
Justin Sanchez
This I have the newest 2016 macbook pro and it runs at 6THz even when running prime95 AND furmark at the same time.
Andrew Rogers
lmao
Oliver Murphy
qm (quadcore model) i5 and i7 always running hot even on idle/low usage. i got mine 3630qm running like 90c.
U /ulv model temp is always low though.
Henry Price
:^)
Ayden Davis
>t's just fucking impossible to cool shit with those tiny ass heatsinks. No, it's not.
Stop pretending you're an engineer.
Thomas Myers
It's is no mobile quad core i5.
Chase Carter
>U /ulv model temp is always low though. Not when they're in apple products.
Nolan Martin
Mine runs at 80ish degrees under load and how thermal paste is applied actually affects load temps a lot because of the shape of the bare, exposed die. 80-90 degrees doesn't really sound cool but I think it's acceptable considering the thing has a tdp of 45 watts.
Jeremiah Campbell
Then why haven't we seen laptops that maintain 4GHz despite running prime95 and furmark at the same time?
Brody Lee
Because there are no 4GHz base mobile CPUs?
Jose Ross
I use rweverything to write to the embedded controller. First I disable automatic fan management, then I set their speed. 255 is the minimal speed for some reason.
