Jarrod, which thermal paste is the GOAT for gaming laptops? If money is no object and all that matters is purely longevity and low temps, which one is the best in the market for laptops that we can repaste with? Love your videos btw ❤

Laptop prices should be the following; Rtx 4050 for $800, 4060 for $1k, 4070 for $1200-1300, 4080 for $1800-2k, & 4090 $2-2.5k, anything higher is too much imo.

Just Bought this laptop few weeks back and now since the new bios update ( F7/F006 ) my power button Isn't working when trying put the laptop to sleep ...button works as usual to turn it on and off tho ( Yes I tried checking power options to change what pouwer button does all looks fine there) Other thing is inbuilt speakers randomly make crackling sound 😢 Update : Bios issue fixed but speaker still fuc*ed 😢😢😢
For us Australian tech enthusiasts, is it possible to try out the Metabox VX lineup?

As well as i very much enjoy your videos and as a fellow aussie, i usually go to every one of your videos for whenever i decide to check out said laptop. Good videos and reviews, very thorough and i hope you get way more subscribers.
bought this laptop 5 days ago and it was smooth. Got the i7 14650HX/4060 16gb RAM. Light laptop for it's punch. one thing to note is that reviews should also include the packaging, mine came with a free waterproof Aoros bag, an Aoros gaming headset and mouse.
Amazing video as always Jarrod! im waiting for the 17x variant, i want to know the differences between 2023 and 2024 model, if there are great improvements, i will buy it.
I own a 3060 gigabyte laptop(gigabyte aorus 15p). Even though it's a good laptop, i didn't like the fact that gigabyte customer support is basically trash. It has a bios problem that hasn't been fixed for about 2 years now
Jarrod, My lenovo Legion slim 7 keeps overheating to 90 degrees C only with chrome. I had to solve it by force it to 30W from lenovo vantage. Is it common? (my room temp is 36 degrees)
Bro make a video of it, send it to Lenovo and get a heat sink+motherboard changed. DO NOT repaste the laptop. Lenovo uses a modified version of Honeywell PTM 7950, it is called PTM 7958, so do not repaste your laptop.
I remember when choosing the right gaming machine was a headache for me, so I used the money to build a pc and I got a regular laptop for work, never looked back. Now I watch reviews of gaming laptops as a past-time 😂
Hey Jarrod, I really like your solid reviews on these gaming laptops. I was wondering if possible, can you please review the MSI Vector 16 hx laptop? I am thinking of buying this laptop since it's a little bit cheaper at 2700$, with 14th gen i9 and rtx 4080. But I haven't been able to find reviews on this laptop on the internet.
Probably no point as far as I know it's the same as the 13th gen we already covered, and 14th gen i9 is basically a rebrand of 13th gen i9 - doesn't justify a week+ of testing sorry.
@@JarrodsTech Hey Jarrod, thanks for your response. I completely understand, you have other laptops to cover as well, so no obligations. But when you say you have already covered the 13th generation one, are you talking about MSI Vector GP 68? Because I guess Vector 16hx probably has the 14th gen CPU, and not the 13th gen. But if you're talking about the Vector GP 68 that you have already reviewed, I have watched that video, and you concluded in your video that the GP 68 has good performance, but its screen is really bad with poor colour reproduction. For the Vector 16hx I guess they have a new 1600p display, with 100% colour gamut, that's what is written on their website. So, will you recommend me to buy the vector 16 hx ? My budget is around 2700$ Also in vector 16 laptop the CPU power limit is 65 watt when GPU is running I guess, and the combined CPU + GPU is 240 watt. But for let's say raider GE 78hx it has a combined power limit of 250 watt (75 watt for CPU), and the newer ge78hx model with 14th gen CPU costs 3000$, so is it worth spending 3000$ just for 10 watts of performance difference, where other specs are the same? The older ge78 model with the 13th gen CPU is priced lower (2600$), which I had selected initially, but it's out of stock, so I had to change to vector 16hx. What do you think about vector 16 hx Vs Asus scar 18 (4080 version) since both have 65 watt CPU limit? Sorry for this very long comment.

Hi jarrod. love your videos! one question: is there any major issues with zephyrus g16 2023 version? i'm about to buy it and i wanted to know your thoughts on it.
No major issues other than low CPU power limit (I think like 25 W when gaming) but I'm sure you're aware that thin and light gaming laptops don't get as good performance as heavier ones.
Thats tough to say rn, they might or might be not. There is no clear evidence for mobile (as they also use less power and "damage" might take longer time) but in general the higher the power the higher the risk on these models, intel just fd up there. If you want to be on the safe side just avoid intel new gen or get an i5(not 13600s).
When we're able to get a G16. Assuming you're referring to ASUS. Unfortunately, we've been trying to get one from them for months. They promise it's coming just don't know when.
Means if i connect a larger Display over the TB4 USB C Port, i can only use the internal CPU Graphocs for gaming then? I search for a laptop that i can use on my larger Monitor and with ext.

hello jarrod can u pls help me on this I had a faulty CPU temp on my lenovo legion laptop I did a repaste on the CPU myself, it had metal liquid on it which I cleaned now still temps are not good though as it reaches 100C and temps are not stable. do u think lenovo would repair my laptop or it void the warranty? should I clean the thermal paste and send it to warranty?
Hello there I have a Cyborg 15 and I’m always worried about its fan being filled with lint and other debris that can affect my laptop Can you do a general video of how to clean a laptop?
can you review aorus 7? and if you do get the bios update from their website, without it the batterylife sucks and the price for performance is decent and what shocks me that it gets near the best intel best batterylife holder, it's 2023 and the secondary functions light up no worries hahaha
Hey Jarrod, I bought Eluktronics Mech 15 G3 with 5900HX, Rtx 3080 165W 16Gb Vram and 32 Gb RAM for 1400$ CAD. What do you think? Did I get a nice deal?
Can you do a video about the 2024 Loq 15ahp9? I can hardly find anything about it Not quite sure if theres really a point tho, since theres just a new cpu and a new chassis design im aware of *Edit: spelling mistake
Man that 100 watt cap is the most annoying thing ever. Lucky that you guys hit 100 though. I got a 140 watt rtx 4060 and the highest Ive ever seen is 88 watts. I feel the the GPU should be allowed enough power to keep fps at over 60fps at 1080p and 1440p native. It would be nice if it actually hit the 125 watts minus dynamic boost.
that's why I chose the 14.5 inch 1.75kg legion slim, since going thicccer, larger and much heavier doesn't increase performance, instead its just a waste since the bigger chassis has only disadvanteges and no benefits, except a larger screen
Hey Boss, we need you to test the Snapdragon Laptops, sure, it's not gaming laptops, but you are by far the most experience and trustworthy laptop channel out there..

Please do a dusting test, because dust accumulation lowers the performance dramatically(I am getting lower performance due to dust in MSI GE67HX 12UGS) (Note: I blow compressed air to get out of the dusts). I haven't used asus but asus have a good dust protection system and it seems like this gigabyte aorus laptop have too. Also, I wonder that can the fans be extracted without lifting the whole heat sinking because repasting(with ptm7950 and upsiren u6 pro) can be dangerous especially for those who are not experienced now don't want get trouble with the laptop which prices can be up to 4000 dollars easily For instance I bought my MSI GE67HX laptop 4000 US dollar ,despite release price of the laptop is 2500 us dollar in the United States.
Yes, 1660 Ti was great but it's been surpassed quite a lot by the current mid-range. Ultimately it depends if what you have no longer does what you need from it.
@@JarrodsTech Oh my, I've been watching you for years and I never expected a response in one of my comments thank you so much. I undervolted my gpu and cpu for better temps and i usually run in the high 50s Early to mid 60s temp wise. Do you have any reccomendations for laptops that dont turn into volcanos?
If the AI mode on laptops like the Legion series only works with a particular set of games, who are were to say that they’re doing anything more impressive than the .plist or .xml in use here? Like, if it is AI, why can’t it optimize power when in running Microsoft Word?
Because you aren't power limited in that scenario. In gaming, laptops are heavily power limited and the components could draw twice as much power if they were able to. "AI" finds the best distribution of CPU and GPU power depending on how CPU or GPU intensive a game is.
The cpu power limit in cpu+gpu mode is just way too extreme, and the temps prove it. I'd rather have 3.5ghz and 90 degrees thanks. That's perfectly safe.
The obnoxious fan noise (complete with high pitched whistling) and awful control software are reason enough to avoid this laptop, even if it does go on sale.
Please dont buy an Aorus. I have the 15P XD and there are basically no driver updates in years. Still on the old control center and the bios updates lower gaming performance. The only good thing has been the ease of upgradability for me.
dont buy. have serious heating issue. Using i7-4070 version. Left Hand Bottom side gets very uncomfortably warm. Cant use Space keys after a while due to heat. This si during playing Ghost of Tshushima in high quality graphics
I own a legion 5 pro 5800h version. Its okay in quiet mode. Through once i had some heating issues, and the class could clearly hear my fans spinning even in quiet mode😂
Seems like 17.3“ is on death‘s door ☠️ I wanted to buy a 17.3 with AMD CPU and RTX -70 class but finding one in my price range with all boxes checked is proving to be difficult. Bought Asus TUF A17 for my brother. First WIFI chip died and now shift key gave up its life even though it wasnt „used/pressed“ at all. Well buying a notebook with less noise, good thermals, nice battery life and coupled with a nice screen/brightness etc. seems like writing a thesis about life. 😅
Hello guys, I need your help to make a good decision for picking a new laptop. LEGION 5i Pro (Core i9 13900hx + RTX 4050 +QHD) VS Helios Neo 16 ( Core i7 13700hx + RTX 4060 + FHD) VS TUF A15 (Ryzen 9 8945h + RTX4060 + FHD) Which one would you recommend for 3d modeling and rendering, content creation and Gaming for sure. Ps : TUF A15 is 70$ less than others.
I just sold my dell g15 ryzen 7 2020. Pros: great performance at the time and still ok today. Cons: gaming heats it to 95c and has the battery life of a laptop from 2005-2009. Now it’s time to search for my next secondary machine. Just waiting on deals now.

I am looking to buy an MSI raider 18... however there is barely any reviews of it... anyone knows of one?
The only laptops i am barely intrested in are the zephyrus g16, due its display and the legion 7i for its looks.
Thats it.
Which is better to pick. Aorus 16x with i7 14650HX 4060 or Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 with i7 14700HX 4060
Hello can I get it with i7?
Might vary by region
Will there ever be a zephyrus g16 2024 review?
Hopefully. We've been trying to get it from ASUS for a few months now. They assure us it's coming, but it's been coming for a while.
Hey can you do a review of asus tuf a15(2024 model) which has rtx 4070?
Please compare rog ally x and rog ally z1 extreme, possible also make video rog ally x usb4+external gpu
Damn this looks good but the main question, does it function well? 😁
Would You reccomend buying a laptop in 2024? I have a 2019(?) Laptop with a 1660ti At the moment
Yes, 1660 Ti was great but it's been surpassed quite a lot by the current mid-range. Ultimately it depends if what you have no longer does what you need from it.
@@JarrodsTech Oh my, I've been watching you for years and I never expected a response in one of my comments thank you so much. I undervolted my gpu and cpu for better temps and i usually run in the high 50s Early to mid 60s temp wise. Do you have any reccomendations for laptops that dont turn into volcanos?
@@voltaireentertainment which laptop do u have?
@@Gateastrologykc its super old now but its the g731gu
I am actually waiting Asus Tuf A14 fa401wv, and wondering too much. Please review next time
Hoping to review it
Should i buy a legion slim 5 with ryzen 7 cpu and a rtx 4060 or pay $200 more and get a strix g15(2022) with ryzen 9 cpu and a rtx 3070 ti?
3070 ti is not worth $200 more imo
I don't under everyone test play back at 200 nits ? It like the screen almost black at that point
We only test battery performance a 200 nits for comparison purposes. All other testing is max brightness.
@@JarrodsTech i just think video play should be done at 75% brightness to a real world feel
If the AI mode on laptops like the Legion series only works with a particular set of games, who are were to say that they’re doing anything more impressive than the .plist or .xml in use here? Like, if it is AI, why can’t it optimize power when in running Microsoft Word?
Because you aren't power limited in that scenario. In gaming, laptops are heavily power limited and the components could draw twice as much power if they were able to. "AI" finds the best distribution of CPU and GPU power depending on how CPU or GPU intensive a game is.
Hey Jarrod, could you make a video about ASUS Strix G16 (2024) please?
The cpu power limit in cpu+gpu mode is just way too extreme, and the temps prove it. I'd rather have 3.5ghz and 90 degrees thanks. That's perfectly safe.
The obnoxious fan noise (complete with high pitched whistling) and awful control software are reason enough to avoid this laptop, even if it does go on sale.
Sounds like the Zephyrus G16 😂
it's cooler than Legion. %30 on keyboard
Should I pull the trigger on a Legion Pro on sale with Ryzen 7 and RTX 4070? It will be my first laptop
I know this was 3 weeks ago, but how much was it? And how much ram/storage were you getting?
Yeah, we need more info.
Is razor blade 18 2024 worth it?
No Razer laptops are worth it, get a Legion instead
@@nocommentarygaming2644 can you elaborate please
@@nocommentarygaming2644elaborate it please
@HhfdrFfghh-up4ct Depends on what deal you get for it
The screen is 16 ou 17 ??
Please do a review of Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 2024 model
Coming up this week!
@@JarrodsTech Nice. Thank you very much.
When It will be released in india
Ao are the next gen gpus coming out in 2025?
yes
@@nocommentarygaming2644 I see, damn thats gonna be a long wait for me then.
High chance they are rather crap, so it doesnt matter when they launch
@@niebuhr6197 Eh they will be on TSMC 3 nm so they'll be very power efficient (allowing for large performance gains), but they won't be cheap.
2025 is the time to buy 2024 laptop
When Asus Tuf Gaming A16 2024?
For those who need some performance and good panel, This is the cheapest gaming laptop with Dolby vision display
Please dont buy an Aorus. I have the 15P XD and there are basically no driver updates in years. Still on the old control center and the bios updates lower gaming performance. The only good thing has been the ease of upgradability for me.
dont buy. have serious heating issue. Using i7-4070 version. Left Hand Bottom side gets very uncomfortably warm. Cant use Space keys after a while due to heat. This si during playing Ghost of Tshushima in high quality graphics
Do you think the Lenovo legion 7i gen 9 is too loud for college cs classes?
I own a legion 5 pro 5800h version. Its okay in quiet mode. Through once i had some heating issues, and the class could clearly hear my fans spinning even in quiet mode😂
@@Blackowl2202 yeah that’s my fear
I had the Pro 5i and it was really quiet in class so 7i should be pretty similar. Just make sure to put it in quiet mode.
no, power off the dgpu and set it to quiet mode and youre fine
Seems like 17.3“ is on death‘s door ☠️
I wanted to buy a 17.3 with AMD CPU and RTX -70 class but finding one in my price range with all boxes checked is proving to be difficult.
Bought Asus TUF A17 for my brother. First WIFI chip died and now shift key gave up its life even though it wasnt „used/pressed“ at all.
Well buying a notebook with less noise, good thermals, nice battery life and coupled with a nice screen/brightness etc. seems like writing a thesis about life. 😅
Aorus has a $17.3" rtx 4070 for $1550 on amazon, 4080 for $2250 and 4090 for $3k.
@@4evahodlingdoge226 thx for suggestion but couldnt find the model on Amazon Germany. Do you have the specific model number?
Xmg core 15????
Jarrod gonna be way busier when 50 series laptop release😂
Probably!
Hello guys,
I need your help to make a good decision for picking a new laptop.
LEGION 5i Pro (Core i9 13900hx + RTX 4050 +QHD) VS Helios Neo 16 ( Core i7 13700hx + RTX 4060 + FHD) VS TUF A15 (Ryzen 9 8945h + RTX4060 + FHD)
Which one would you recommend for 3d modeling and rendering, content creation and Gaming for sure.
Ps : TUF A15 is 70$ less than others.
ryzen for bettery battery life. Which one did u choose?
You always try so hard, I think that's very good about you.
I just sold my dell g15 ryzen 7 2020. Pros: great performance at the time and still ok today. Cons: gaming heats it to 95c and has the battery life of a laptop from 2005-2009. Now it’s time to search for my next secondary machine. Just waiting on deals now.
MidnightGay color really suits you well Jarrod
I have 2023 gigabyte aorus 17h 4080 laptop and it foes everything i want.
Hi, I found this laptop
MSI SWORD15 A12VF-1299US
Prossessor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i7-12650H
Ram Ram 16 GB DDR4
Graphics Card (GPU) NVIDIA GeForce RTX4060 8GB
Display 15.6 FHD 144Hz IPS
Internal Storage 1TB SSD M.2 NVME
Is it good for games? It is only $1000
The XML files were actually AI that claim is not wrong, your are confusing AI with Machine Learning which is more specific and what you are thinking about
The intenal just like asus tuf a15 2023 btw
Hey Jarrod, still waiting for your thoughts on the G16 (2024).
We are too. 😭
The charger sticking out is kinda sketchy
16inch and no num pad that is a crime.
But it it 16x better? 👀
lol
AI seems more like bloatware anyway. It's kind of intrusive, to be honest. I mean, what else does the AI in your device do behind your back?
