lol, i upgraded my cheap 500$ 8 year old samsung laptop more than that: A6-4400m to A10-5750M, 4GB ram to 16GB, 500GB 5400RPM to WD SSD+HDD DUAL BLACK, upgraded Wifi from 1x1 to 2x2, dvd to blu-ray, TN to IPS, and i undervolted the cpu with a script + added vacuum cooler to the fan exhaust. the Integrated GPU was changed with the cpu from 7570m to 8650g that can work with the dgpu 7670m in crossfire. i love it, it's my daily driver, i went to university with it for 4 years and i even have an external power bank for it when i need it for a longer run

I think the reason why it gets framedrops and slowdowns sometimes might be the CPU throttling because the cooler was meant to cool a Celeron and not the i7

Because of your channel, I upgraded my Lenovo Thinkpad L420 laptop with 4 Gb of RAM, 240 Gb HDD, and Intel i3-2310M to 16Gb of RAM, 240Gb SSD Samsung 570 Evo + 1Tb 7200 RPM HDD, and I7-2630QM. It helps me a lot to do some Coding in my Computer Science College and also playing some Low-End games, I can't play some High-End games cause my laptop doesn't have eGPU but it doesn't matter cause it's not a Gaming Laptop. Thanks for inspiring me to upgrade my laptop.

To be honest I have enjoyed this music much more than those in the past. Really, how many times can you listen to that woman repeating "Eww" over and over again before it gets tiresome. However, I think the music in general is a bit too strong in all the videos, it should be more of a background thing without being too much in the spotlight. I agree that the content is superb, though:)

Don't think you needed to use the Power shell command to add the High performance power option. When you're in the power options screen on the left hand side is an option to "Create a power plan", and when you choose this option it gives you the choice of selecting Power saver, Balanced, or High performance for the plan. Great video as usual none the less.
Like before watching. 🙂

Terrible, terrible music, but amazing video: well filmed, good, informative angles and the subject is interesting too. Many people are afraid to disassemble their laptops and you show it is easy, so they will be encouraged to maintain their computers. Edit: OK, the second song (while you were testing GTA after setting power settings) was so much better and suited as background music.
