Hey guys,
Hope i'm not too late to the Aorus Party.
I recently bought the X3 plus v5. I did debate about saving up further for the v6 but I couldn't justify the extra money.
Initial impressions:
* Not too big at all. Was previously using a HP Spectre x360 for my work but wanted some extra grunt to run VMs and of course, get in to some gaming
* The screen is beautiful and on Windows 10, i have set the scaling for 125%. This means I can read everything clearly and still have tons of screen estate.
* Only played CS:Go so far and I can play at native 3200 x 1800 resolution at over 100fps
* It did get a bit noisy during the game but nothing too bad. Also, during normal work, I don't hear the fans at all which is a big improvement from my x 360.
Some questions:
1. Can anyone advise where I could purchase an additional AC adapter for this laptop? Needs to have 19.5v - 7.7a output.
2. I see the temps during normal use are mid/late 30's. Shall i try undervolt and see if i can bring these down?
3. I'm powering 2 monitors (24in 1080p over hdmi | 27in 4k over DP), presumabily its the onboard GPU that is powreing these? Any way to force it to use the GTX 970?
cheers!
