Hi sweetpoison, thanks for your reply - some of which i agree with, some of which is incorrect. I know it's towards the lower-middle end of the gaming laptop price range, but £1500 (around 1700 euros) isn't cheap enough to not expect everything to work flawlessly! I agree you'll see variations between identical hardware due to manufacturing tolerances etc, but the score variations are far in excess of what you would expect to just be natural margin of error, hence why something seems amiss. On RAM, you cannot have 1-bank dual channel configuration - neither can you buy dual-channel memory modules - you need to have two identical modules to run dual-channel, and yes, the performance benefit in some parts of some games is around +30% after the upgrade. The point on warranty is absurd - the laptop is sold as upgradeable with 'additional expansion slots' - so how can using a feature it's sold with void a warranty? The point about games micro-stuttering at 99% load is also completely incorrect - GPU's are designed to run at full load for maximum FPS, and indeed why most people see a 100% GPU load on 3dMark when running the graphics tests. SOmething (power maybe? BIOS? voltage? drivers?) is holding this back, hence the qn. I agree max-q is lower performance because of lower thermal limits

Hi All, Hi All, first post - what a wonderful resource! I've recently purchased the Erazer X10 Guardian gaming laptop - link here to the exact model and spec: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/medi...-intel-i7-10750h-gaming-laptop-lt-00v-md.html Specs again here are: Intel i7-10750H CPU Nvidia RTX2070 Super (mobile version but NOT MAX-Q) 16MB DDR4 2666mhz ram (my only criticism- comes with 1 stick in single so have upgraded to 32mb in dual channel) 1TB SSD Overall i'm really happy with it - the specs are great for the price etc. BUT i can't help but feel it's holding out on me a little. If i look at my 3dMark scores vs other identical machines, they're a bit lower - enough to be significant: (all these are on stock speeds) Firestrike Avg Scores Mine overall 17,991 graphics 20,564 MSI GE75 overall 19,456 graphics 22,879 https://www.3dmark.com/fs/22809260 MSI GE66 overall 18,880 graphics 22,258 https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLaptops/comments/il59wt/msi_ge66_benchmark_questions/ Medion Erazer X10 Beast overall 18,534 graphics 21,446 https://www.notebookcheck.net/Medio...g-laptop-with-good-battery-life.506266.0.html Even the other Medion laptop review which has almost identical specs (although it states it's max-q design it is in fact the same 'full-fat' RTX2070 Super (Mobile) as in mine - this is just the 17" version) I think i've narrowed it down to a GPU utilisation issue - temps are cool (GPU doesn't go above around 72/73 degrees / CPU about 84), but while running the gfx tests on firestrike for EG my GPU utilisation % seems to hover around 92-93% avg in a range of between 89-98%) I'm on the latest nvidia drivers (no geforce experience just driver) with a new version of windows 10 (with all latest updates installed) Any help with getting my GPU to run at 99-100% would be great!
