How much does it cost to replace a screen

I almost hesitated, but if you're going to come onto this sub to plug your business I'm not keeping silent. I found his "service" on this sub and I owe it to others to let them know what's what. If he objects, I have our email communications that will substantiate everything I said. I don't know if

Apex support a 8tb hardrive?

Officially they'll say no, single sided only. However, the wifi chip is dead center of the ssd, so a 8tb double sided with the chips on the edge works. I have a lexar nm790 8tb in my apex and have zero issues with temps or stability.

Samsung SSD in T14 gen4 running hot - recommendations for SSD that runs cool.

Lexar NM790 is the coolest running, and also quite affordable, and also TLC, and also single-sided up to 4TB, SSD on the market.

Any red flags with my build? How'd I do?

https://www.caselabs.org/coolers/low-profile-coolers - maybe check the cooler again; AXP90-X53 is okay if there's no space for another one, but the case can fit 70mm Samsung 990 Pro 1TB has a TBW of 600 TB. Which is mediocre.Crucial P310 2TB has a TBW of 440 TB, which is terrible for 2 TB SSD.Lexar

PSA: Don't make my mistake – the Crucial P3 Plus 4TB is a terrible choice for the G14 (or any laptop as a system drive)

You did the right choice, I have Lexar NM790 for almost 2 years now. No issues at all. It is efficient as well, Here's a link to the review... Lexar NM790 2TB The first year and a half I was using it as OS but after that I bought Crucial T500 and moved my Lexar as a 2nd slot for gaming & media. Befo

Vale la pena este Kit de Refrigeración

clean the fan, repaste chip with ptm7950 and use a low powered SSD (I use the Lexar NM790 4TB with the 2242 to 2280 adapter). Those are some suggestions that should help lower temps. Oh yea, you can also 3D print or purchase a custom backplate with better airflow (some even have a dedicated compartm

Recommendations to go with my PNY 5080 and Components please!

You won’t need one, actually the motherboard comes with a PCI-E safe slot and the GPU is anchored to the case with 3 screws…so just sustain it while mounting and you’ll be fine…Anyway the GPU comes with its own support included if you want to use it. What you should pay attention is the SSD temps…si

Planning to upgrade SSD for Legion Go S. Which SSD should I get?

There are 2242 4TB drives but they are very expensive, like 1.5X the price of a 2280 4TB. There are some drives that aren't that expensive but you need to make sure you're comparing like vs like. The SSD I'm about to recommend is a TLC NAND drive (high speeds, high endurance and they can write much

Recommended SSD?

Either embrace the backplate or get the 2280 adapter for the OG Go with a Lexar NM790 2280 drive. They are very energy efficient and probably the best at keeping your SSD from overheating inside the stock backplate.
