[@steel5897]

It's unfortunately kind of ass on the Oculus Link using a Quest 2. I switched from a 5700 XT to a 3070 and it's night and day, I can now push over 350-400 mbps on the encoding bitrate and the bottleneck becomes the actual USB 3.0 bandwidth, not the GPU encoder. On the 5700 XT anything above 150 mbps would cause issues...

[@OmniUni]

Additionally, you should be able to delegate the encoding to the Vega GPU that's in the onboard graphics if you want to completely free up the 6800M for rendering. I think a lot of times reviewers forget that AMD can use both internal and dedicated GPUs at the same time. (In the very few games that support mGPU it can do that too, at least in theory.)

The reason for having the option to disable the right side of the trackpad is the same reason why trackpads in general are often placed further left nowadays. It's so your hand can pivot from trackpad to keyboard more comfortably without moving your elbow. If the right side of the trackpad is disabled, there's less of a chance of hitting it with the palm of your hand during the movement. That's if your right-handed of course. If you're left-handed, everyone hates you and we all want to make your life harder. Go smear that trackpad some more with your ink-smeared palm, you animal.

[@mhrkrnm]

[@tigartar]

That or someone over at corsair likes a lot of games that just feel better when played with arrow keys then wasd or just don't support wasd for whatever reason(eg older space shooters and the likes) or games that use qwasde and arrow keys for their controls(one game comes to mind instantly which is descent 2) if your control scheme is something like, pitch forward ,backward,turn left,right,slide on,slide left,right,up,down,bank left,right. Then at that point you kinda wand arrows keys for pitch and turning qw/qe for banking with sliding setup to wasd keys. There are plenty of smaller games out there that would benefit so much from mouse control but do not have mouse control or mouse control is just weird in them where as keyboard control is a lot better(once you master the piano that is their controller scheme) I for one love my laptops ability to disable the trackpad when i play space shooters like that just sit on the bus boot up descent or x2/3 or star wars tie fighter and spend the 30 min bus trip playing some fun games. I wish more laptops had the ability to disable part or the entire trackpack with a simple button press(Also really great against cat paws moving your mouse)

[@wrongturnVfor]

Well, then it would totally make sense to have a central wide trackpad with the option to disable either side or all of it.

[@generaxz5929]

What's stupid is that you can't choose which side to disable. You wouldn't even need to use hardware, you could probably do it in the driver.

The taller screen, milled chassis, and macro bar are big additions and tweaks that set this apart for me.

2:52 Left handed gamers. I’m learned ambidextrous, so it wouldn’t bother me, but I have met a few of us that don’t have years invested in re-learning to write, type and game prefer to use a mouse with our dominant hand. That number is super low, but this laptop is perfect for them

I have this laptop and and its a beast. Its an exceptional powerful computer and I think if you re ran the performance test with the fans at extreme full speed it would have preformed way better than the compared computer. Also while playing Elden ring full powered; temp was 80c which is very impressive, and that's without the cooling pad I have to prop teh laptop up. This computer is so worth it for the price though. Full aluminum chasse, uniquely mounted screen, high quality 240hz screen, massive too. touch pad is very big and quite useful, this think is a power house with video games, yes a little loud but honestly if your playing a serious game your going to have headphones on. Speakers are decent on this but not really audiophile quality, they get the job done and I've watched plenty of movies with them and there great. Also does have dobie software which drastically improves the speaker volume and their quality and depth of sound. Hence this might just be a software limitation of windows 11 for these speakers but again, its not a boom box, or ment to be a speaker system, use a Bluetooth speaker connected to the laptop if your playing music, or your headphones. The keyboard, Cherry MX board it is fantastic to type on. Its smooth and fun to type with, the lighting effects are endless on this board as well as the touch bar at the top that now allows you to load up PC status such as your %CPU usage and %GPU usage. The little screen shows all of this information for you so you can see these statuses while gaming. The touch bar is very useful and you can make multiple profiles for either streaming, work and more. Thus if you press a touch button it can open a website or any app or even preform an action for streaming and more, really fantastic. Also the overall look of the computer is very impressive, really think about it, your going to pay 1.5K - 3K roughly for a high powered gaming laptop, do you really want it too look like your work laptop or something generic or be a little more proud of something that just looks bad ass. Anyways, this thing rocks, I personally don't think its very loud, and you can control all the audio options. Corsair did a good job with this machine and if you get there full warrantee program ($300 bucks more) you get two complete replacement computers if anything happens at all, not refurbished just brand spanking new computer. That alone is worth getting this thing.

9:11 to 9:18 😂 laughs in Linux Mint Cinnamon.

[@petemalogne5219]

also Corsair staying small and keeping the focus lockd is arguably what makes them soo good in comparison to dell.

[@cyano3d]

For me Asus is my favourite laptop brand with all their innovations and investments. The only thing i want them to do is make something which actually competes with xps15

[@vainoleppanen8971]

8:20 What is that noise? Some kind of background noise starts exactly when chapter changes at 8:20.

[@mrniffels]

a moment of appreciation for the flex seal cap

[@Kurant743]

I’m excited to see what Corsair will do in the future. They have tons of potential, but hopefully they’ll make some less expensive laptops.

[@WrenIsWitty]

Ok so this has been bugging me for ages with not just ltt but the tech industry in general 16:10 is not a ratio, the correct ratio is 8:5 because ratios use the lowest comparable whole number. Sorry if this came across as rude I just suck at communication.

[@flyingpigmonkey1]

I think people refer to it as 16:10 because it is directly comparable to other 16:x displays but perhaps we should move up to the largest of the common scales.

[@TheObsesedAnimeFreaks]

how to disable modern standby, in an admin terminal... powercfg /h off reg add HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power /v PlatformAoAcOverride /t REG_DWORD /d 0 the first command disables hibernation which also disables fast startup and features that use "hibernation" the second adds a registry key to change the system from s0 sleep to s3 sleep. this is technically for embedded use, but is useful on all laptops and tablets.

[@DustyTheDog]

3:15 battery says 20%, 3:30 the battery says 29%. Is this because of the incredibly fast charging, or is this because you guys take forever to shoot? I know it wasn't really 15 seconds IRL, and that cuts were made. But I'd expect at least 10ish minutes to gain that 9%.

[@Khronos_Aion]

This was an amazing video. Hes def my second favorite host on LTT

[@ianlawson94]

The first 15 seconds of this video was just fantastic

[@misterx280]

his corshair is driving me crazy. I cant look at him without seeing that rogue strand reaching for Marco Rubio's water bottle. holy hell.

[@falsemcnuggethope]

Watch in lower quality if you get disturbed by that. It's a feature.

[@flammablewater1755]

From the thumbnail, I thought it had a handle so you could carry the laptop like a briefcase, which I liked more as a concept than the streaming buttons.

[@shuginubi]

7:00 why don't use integrated for streaming? will it handle as much tho..

[@Agent_Alpha_SLV]

when you look at it from the top at 0:29, it kinda looks like Corsair's Dominator Platinum RAM, is that intentional lol

[@tommybot89]

Elutronics 17 max laptop has the same track pad design and it works the same way but the alignment makes sense because it has a full keyboard with num pad. when typing your right thumb meat would rest on the right side of the the track pad.

[@SirBilliam96]

13:50 anyone else notice the battery model name says Xenomorph? Nice easter egg Corsair!

[@XionEternum]

All of LTT really needs to realize that nVidia isn't the only graphics card outside of benchmarking reviews.

[@superscatman4236]

I forget that Alex is from Newfoundland but I was immediately reminded when he described something as a "chummy". It's such a Newfoundland word.

[@Elinzar]

"Streaming Doohdah" Lanz is torturing me even in Ltt videos

[@beemerss]

Said "nice" right after the 69 before finishing the rest of the processor name. A man after my own heart. Nice
