Dell G15 Laptop: RTX 3060, i7-10870H, 15.6" 1080p, 16GB DDR4, 512GB SSD EXPIRED

Quote from Buhfrog : It's complicated. lol

Not really. I UVed my MSI Raider because you can unlock it in the bios. Makes a huge difference. What I was wondering is if Dell had a similar way to do so in their laptops. If you can you won't be giving up much to Ryzen.

Even if you can't, I think Throttlestop will work fine set custom profiles for clock speed, number of cores active, etc. Use Afterburner for the GPU. Some info on mine here: https://www.techpowerup.com/forum...75.279412/

Ope. Sorry. I meant the answer to your question was complicated. Not throttlestop. I used throttlestop on a i7 9750H with some pretty great results. I just got this Dell G15 5510 in the mail today! Ran Cinebench R23 for 10 minutes on multi core and single core for 10 minutes each. HWinfo shows that the CPU ran at an average of 72C! Icy. Unfortunately though, even at 72C the laptop fans are just slightly loud still. All around I'm happy with my purchase at $914 before tax. If anyone has any questions, feel free to let me know. I'll try my best to answer. I'm a bit of a noobie when it comes to tech. I'm hoping to see what scores and temps are with the Ryzen 5800H CPU in this chassis.

Cinebench scores on my i7 is
CPU (multi core) 8868
CPU (single core)1208

Here's a pic of it.

That's nuts.

The CPUs normally hit 95C at full power. What was your power and clock speed at that temperature?

EDIT: I just did a run with my 10750H and got a score of 8679 with only 6 cores @4.3 GHz... so you are running much slower.

EDIT2: 1248 in single core, so that's about the same.

Oops. I'm a noob. I stand corrected. I wasn't using high performance mode. (The F9/ G key) That kicks up the fans, and makes it run in performance mode. I'm not sure what the power is called you're talking about in Hwinfo. What exactly is it called? I'll look into it for ya asap. It looks like it was running at 3,992.2 Mhz max. The new scores for my G15 is

CPU (multi core) 9596
CPU (single core) 1226

Here's the HWinfo screenshot I took before the test was completed. Does this show the power you were talking about? What's it mean? lol

Ya, "CPU package power". It would do much better if you could UV. Like all laptops, your performance is limited by temperature/power... the clock speed is throttled to keep those under control.

You probably aren't interested in bios modding, but if anyone is, this might work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVAJVyF06Ro

And this is what I did to my MSI: https://www.techpowerup.com/forum...75.279412/

I was able to connect thunderbolt/usbc to displayport 1.4 on lg 1440p monitor @144hz using dedicated gtx 3060. G-sync also works. For those who is not sure whether thunderbolt is only wired to intel cpu onboard graphic.

For the past 2 weeks I've been having constant lag and frame drops with low gpu utilization with this laptop… no cpu/ram bottleneck. Worked fine a month ago. Kind of regret buying this cause I've tried so many things.
