Hi Guys

Just arrived today!

What an absolute beast, gone for the 360hz option absolutely blows my old MSI Ghost GS60 Pro out of the water! Anyone else got one and how are you finding it and do you have any advice on tweaking the GPU/CPU for better performance not that its really needed but I like a good tinker!

Thanks

Will
 
Congrats! I had a Strix a few years back. Lovely laptop with fantastic build quality, but I had issues with overheating and loud fan noise after six months or so. I recommend using Throttlestop to switch off turbo boost and setting your speedshift EPP to 128 (or whatever you decide after some tinkering). Negligible performance hit for 40deg temp reductions and silent running. If you notice uneven temps across CPU cores (>10deg) you could reapply the thermal paste - Asus are known for poor factory application.
