Nice laptop after some tweaks

I got this laptop a few days ago and tested it for almost 48 hours. Some things to note β€’ Pretty good screen for a laptop. 144Hz and looks good out of the box β€’ Case is solid but not overly heavy β€’ The 6GB RTX 3060 handles games well. Division 2 averages over 120 fps at maximum settings at 1080p. I tested War Thunder, Escape from Tarkov, and Mordhau and both were very smooth (both ran reliably at 144Hz at Ultra 1080p). There is no typing or screen lag in Mordhau, so even fast shooters can benefit from it. β€’ No noticeable micro-juddering when switching from β€’ The top of the notebook does not heat up under pressure, but I wouldn't play it on my lap. β€’ I connected a 1TB WD Blue NVMe drive to this laptop, it's easy to do and there are videos on it β€’ The GPU runs cool for a laptop (average 78 under load), but the CPU doesn't. You can fix this by limiting or lowering the maximum performance in the processor performance settings. The CPU does have initial temperature spikes but usually finishes in the mid 80s, which is a bit hot but to be expected. β€’ Use the Dragon Center to optimize performance. Don't use extreme power without a cooler boost. β€’ Buy a cooling pad and watch your CPU temperature, the CPU is the only thing holding this beast back because it tends to reach high temperatures (maximum 95Β°C I've seen) when it's standing still. at maximum settings. β€’ It has 2x USB3.2 and 2x USB-C, so you may need to buy a USB dongle. It has a headset jack, so depending on the headset you may need to buy a splitter. β€’ Only one HDMI. There is no display port at all, which should be taken into account. HDMI supports 4k 60Hz, but it's HDMI after all. Must be compatible with g sync or g sync enabled monitors.
