Hello, i just got my first gaming Laptop after gaming on PC my whole life. its OMEN 16 with RTX4080 and i713700HX.

i noticed while playing RDR2 online servers the temps go up to 90-95CPU and 85GPU. plus the speakers mesh that is located between screen and keyboard is getting super hot. putting my fingers there hurt, not burn or anything but i can hardly tolerate the heat.

anyone knows if thats okay? performancewise its performing perfect

so i bought an HP omen 16 RTX 4080 gaming laptop recently, it had its screen replaced from original 240hz to 144hz fresh and HP certified original screen by a certified tech.

everytime i try to launch a heavy game (rdr2, dota2, etc) the screen starts flcikering (going black for a milisecond) but on easy games like among us and etc it does nothing.

all i could find in internet was to switch the default graphics card settings from DGPU to optimus mode in nvidia control panel settings.

if anyone had the same issue know the subject well enough, why should it flicker and is it fine having that setting on optimus?

peformancewise i think it does a pretty decent job with games, havenot tried any super heavy game yet (smth that 4080 should have lil trouble running)

i

I bought and downloaded red dead online from steam to play on RP servers . Now my friend gave me rockstar account with the full game on it. what should i do to avoid double download and file confusion from rockstar/steam?
