    PCSPECIALIST Recoil 17" laptop - happy with the laptop, not happy with liquid cooling, still unsure about customer support

    Yes, I have the control center installer, but if I'm not mistaked the firmware would be installed on the cooling unit itself and I don't think I have that. I'll check with PCS.

    PCSPECIALIST Recoil 17" laptop - happy with the laptop, not happy with liquid cooling, still unsure about customer support

    Ok, thanks, good to know. Any ideas where I can get the latest firmware for the cooling unit? Would that be different for PCS and XMG too? I've been testing it the last few hours and since Control Center was showing me a message that there is a firmware upgrade available I decided to install...

    PCSPECIALIST Recoil 17" laptop - happy with the laptop, not happy with liquid cooling, still unsure about customer support

    Thanks for this extremely useful link. I tried following XMG's user guide (PC Specialist don't even want to confirm it's an XMG, when asked and only give you their own user guide, which is crap), but couldn't get it to work. Now with this video I finally managed it to work now. Thanks a lot. I...

    PCSPECIALIST Recoil 17" laptop - happy with the laptop, not happy with liquid cooling, still unsure about customer support

    I bought a Recoil 17" laptop with a i9 24 Core CPU, 64GB RAM and GeForce 4700 8GB over a month ago. Laptop works very well, apps and games run fast. I had a few issues with the GPU initially (was overheating on some games, even on low settings), but setting max FPS solved all of them and it is...

    PCSPECIALIST Laptop spec for review, any non-obvious considerations?

    Thanks for your comments. Good point about SSDs, I will get two smaller instead. I'll probably go with 64GB of RAM, just to make it more future proof, unless you think it's going to have a negative impact on anything? I did consider adding water cooling later in the future if I find that it...

    PCSPECIALIST Laptop spec for review, any non-obvious considerations?

    I'm planning to build a multi purpose laptop (hopefully this is the right place to ask), which I hope to serve me for years (the PC I'm planning to replace I've had for over 10 years). I hope to use it for every day stuff like web surfing or watching videos or listing to music, but also more...
