Heyo all -

Loving this refurbished laptop overall but I wanted to confirm its performance because I'm not so sure it's doing grrrreat. Running the i7 9th gen 240hz 2080 max q mid 2019.

I play 2 games currently, Wow Classic and League. I use ultra settings for both

Wow Classic - in a semi populated IF I'm getting ~80 frames. Densely populated (all those needy guilds waiting for Onyxia in stormwind) it's dropped down to like 20 or so. It was awful.
- Note, if my max processor state in Power Options is set to 100% i see a bit of Power Throttling - is that bad? Razer has recommended this be set to 80%

League of Legends - ultra for all settings getting about 140.

Benchmarks I run. Now I have my synapse set to high performance. I have my max processor state to 100.

- Superposition, 1080p Extreme 4876 - 5000
- Superposition, 1080p Medium 15617
- Timespy - 7324
- Firestrike - 17757
- Heaven 4.0 - 3245 with FPS 128.8

What are ya'll thoughts? Love any feedback.

Going to bump this to the top.
Is your RB connected to power brick when you play WOW? And is it using the dedicated GPU? (you can easily check that in Task Manager while the game runs).
Howdy. Yes it's plugged into the powerbrick and outlet. I have it set to auto select the dedicated GPU and not the onboard intell GPU.

Power throttling is not the end of the world and better than a thermal throttling it’s to keep your system cooler in long run. No don’t limit it to 80%, on battery maybe fine, since it’s already power limited try to get as high as possible on ac adapter power, so yes set to 100% on plugged. Not quite sure about the games since unfortunately I don’t play those titles but Benchmark scores are fine imo, since it’s better around 17% compared to OC 1070maxq Blade 15 which reached some 1070 mobile performance.
