    Laptop using integrated GPU instead of dedicated

    As usual in these cases, have you tried all these things that are the same for EVERY laptop? 1. Set PC's power management setting to "Maximum performance" 2. Plug in charging cable 3. I'm not a fan of AMD GPUs, but on every Nvidia's GPU's control panel window there is an option to choose for...

    Lenovo with 7500u - low load at 3.5GHz, but 2.7Ghz when high load?

    Hi, this is completely normal: 3.5GHz is the maximum turbo-speed of i7-7500u, which only applies to 1 core (LinusTechTips has a video on youtube explaining turbo speeds, that video should explain it to you), but long story short - only 1 core can run at 3.5GHz leaving other core almost...

    gtx 1060 3gb vram OR gtx 1060 6gb vram? (3 vs 6 gb Vram)

    It will run them, but with medium details, add one more year and the details will go to low.

    gtx 1060 3gb vram OR gtx 1060 6gb vram? (3 vs 6 gb Vram)

    It is. GTX1060 is like the upper side of the 'mid-range', but by any means it cannot be called high-end :| A laptop with GTX1060 inside is a great thing overall. I forgot to say that when i bought my 760, the first two years were the only years i was a hardcore gamer, after all, i did not play...

    gtx 1060 3gb vram OR gtx 1060 6gb vram? (3 vs 6 gb Vram)

    Of course not, if you want future-proofness, you have to look at high-end products like GTX1070 or 1080, coz GTX1060 is only a mid-range GPU. It is recommended to upgrade the GPU every 3 years if you want to enjoy smooth experience, because there is no such thing as future-proof - the...

    gtx 1060 3gb vram OR gtx 1060 6gb vram? (3 vs 6 gb Vram)

    Only if you're playing on higher res than 1080p. 3GB for 1080p games should be enough for max details. But if the 6GB version is not much more expensive, go for 6gigs, it has a few %% better performance than the 3gigs one.

    Intel HD 520 is good for gaming

    For general tasks, video playback and other visual things integrated intel hd 520 graphics will do just fine, but for gaming - it's a different story. Intel hd 520/620 graphics are good for playing minecraft, overwatch with lower graphics and other light games, but for more graphical power...

    Solved! How to make items larger?

    Hi. Right click on desktop -> Display settings -> you should see a blue square with a white number 1 on it, that's your screen. Just below that you can see a slider, which has "Change the size of text, apps, and other items" written near it - try adjusting this slider (make it more than 100%).
