Had an old pc case with magnetic dust filter that i cut to size to fit my gmktec k12. Had to do it because of dust. I still have to figure out how to add a filter on the cpu side though. Temps are amazing.
MODEL: PHN16-71-59F1
* Processor (CPU): Intel Core i5-13500HX 14 cores, 20 Threads
* Graphics (GPU): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 6GB
* Memory (RAM): 24GB DDR5 4800MHz
- Before i did anything im getting 90C above temps both on cpu and gpu while gaming to the point the keyboards are already too hot to touch. The SSD's are also running at 80c which im not comfortable with.
- What i did to the laptop:
* Disabled CPU Parking using ParkControl [This fixed my poor performance issues with games]
* Repaste using TG Kryosheet and UPSIREN Thermal Putty
* I added thermal pads to the SSD's
Results are in while i play 2 games at the same time. Temperatures are just beside the clock.
Red = CPU = 69C
Violet = GPU = 75C
Last 2 Temps = M.2 SSD's = 63C and 50C
PredatorSense is set to balanced.
I had this issue for a while on my predator neo 16 phn-71 and it quite annoying. Press the power button first day in the morning and everything turns on but no boot just black screen. Im forced to do a power off then turn on again and magically it boots. Its been like months but i fixed it by going to Control panel > Power options > CHOOSE WHAT THE POWER BUTTONS DO.
I UNCHECKED "Turn on Fast startup" and saved the changes.
Its been 5 days now and did not have that issue ever again. Hopefully stays that way. Just sharing this so other people have the issue can try the fix.

Gave my Nitro V16 some love today with AI generated skin.
Decided to give them some attention today and printed some custom AI generated skins to protect them from my sweaty hands. Specially the predator Helios Neo 16 which have a metal top cover that is so finger print magnet. Every single day i had to wipe it down.
These laptops with intel cpu's are hot. I usually get 90'c every time i game. at Performance mode. I figured out why at least in my own experience and observation. Recently i wanted to play RF Online Next. I installed it and launched it and noticed that its very slow. Its like its running on 5 FPS. To save you sometime reading I check task manager and its just using 2 cores. Which is strange because i had the 14 core 20 thread cpu. So I discovered that this laptop is forcing these cpu's to Park and just overwork 2 cores. Creating a hotspot and thus a really hot cpu temps.
But i Noticed recently that they are cooler when you enable all CPU's using Park Control and RF Online Next now works perfectly. Performance setting temps now run at 70c while playing RF Online and Black Desert at the same time.
