if you have a thunderbolt port, you could get a thunderbolt graphic card adapter. hardware upgrade on laptop is very difficult, due to the fact that laptop are highly customized hardware. especially when you want to cross generation of hardware. the easiest thing to do is that actually find the...

also how about cpu temperature and frequency. during game.

first, make sure all your drivers are update to date. it could be that the cooling and power setting for the 1050ti was restricting the chip to perform at its best. you can run msi afterburner to check the gpu/mem clock and compare it against the reference, as well as temperature under load...

very difficult, the processor sounds like a 4010u or something, 2core 4 thread, no turbo boost. plus 4 gb ram. cpu and ram barely makes the list for minimum requirement. However, if you are planning to use igpu from the cpu to run it, at best, it would be a slide show.

i'm a bit paranoid, but my safest suggestion is to do the following. 1. get a new drive and new os. 2. physically destroy your old drive to prevent leak of personal data. if you want to take 1 step further, you could flash your mobo bios before connecting the new drive. as that should wipe...

i think drive to drive transfer and drive to self transfer are different. usually for large files. it's difficult for the os to ask a drive to read and write at the same time, afaik, they can only do 1 thing at a time. so the drive has to read x mb into the cache, then writes x mb into drive and...

can you just disable the graphic card from device manager? since you have a laptop mobo, de-solder might damage the entire board. i would try with software solution first.

do you play game? or you just want a stable laptop acer/asus/dell/hp uses similar odm with very little differences (compal, quanta, wistron ... ) if you just want a stable laptop (cost more for sure) here are three of my suggestions. 1. business line laptop, they will undergo a more strict...

if you are reaching 95C or above, then you would want to do something. for now, 80-90 is fine. another thing you can do, is that download msi afterburner and intel xtu (if you are using intel), depends on your hardware, you should be able to under volt the CPU and GPU. your fps will drop...

the temperature is normal or laptop. there is nothing much you can do, cooling pad help some what, but there is very little airflow within the laptop case to effectively cool it.

run cpu-z and look at the packaging, if contains either lga or pga you can do it easily. if it contains bg, no you can't do it directly. let's say, it's pga and you can do it, you need to find a i7 4xxx series mobile CPU. usually i would do is to find w/e CPU is available for the highest SKU...

by looking for the 8086k turbo table. it looks like 8086k only changes boost clock for single core. 8086k is binned to perform better than the average 8700k. but how much better, it's questionable. 2 core and up, the turbo table is the same. i'm wondering if the chip will be stable under MCE...

my thoughts: CPU: if you don't like overclocking, you can get a 8086k it has a higher boosted clock than your average 8700k. Cooler is good. Mobo is good, there are other options. but asus is a solid choice. ram, do you need 32gb of ram? most pc is overkill with 16GB. unless you are using...

you can order a recovery disk from dell. there was some one providing some service, and got sue by microsoft, so i'm not going to suggest you that till everything is sorted out.

Have you check the vrm temp or power draw? Could be the card being power limited. Instead of temperature limited.
