Yup, and it'll be free to play next weekend too, which is perfect timing for when the laptop arrives.

 

Ok, I get that running Battlefield V for the stress test part. Is there anything else I should be doing? I'm definitely gonna look into undervolting it. I read in an old thread that some people suggest to let new laptop run 24/7 for a whole week to see if there's gonna be any problem with it. Is that a good idea?

I'm also wondering what do you usually do first when you install Windows 10. As currently I am using a Macbook Pro and have been using MacOS for 6 years now and kinda already forgotten how to use Windows (I've never used Win 10 yet), lol.

 

What do you mean by do first? While installing, or after installing?

 

Sorry, I meant afterwards, like what are all the necessary drivers.

 

Update your gpu drivers, that's about it.

 

Ok cool. Another thing, what do most of you guys do in terms of battery care? The new laptop will just be sitting on my desk and I will hardly ever move it around. (If I do need to be on the move, I will just use my current MacBook). So is it a good idea to just unplug the battery and will this save the battery performance in the long run?

 

Use it as a UPS and keep it plugged in.

 

The PB70EF-G models (possibly more) have 'FlexiCharger' BIOS feature which helps support longer battery life by allowing you to set custom charge and discharge levels. I am using 40/80, but you can set these limits to anything from 10-99 I believe. When you want to travel with the notebook, simply disable the feature and charge fully to 100% as usual. It's a great addition and I've used it the entire life of my laptop so far.

I am having a weird issue. Headphone Jack doesn't work. Doesn't even show in sound control panel. When i launch realtek audio console it launches then quits. When I launch devices inside the windows control panel, i get the same behaviour.

Latest realtek drivers installed with creative control panel as well.

any tips ?
