QUOTE(BlizzardCraft @ Apr 9 2017, 10:34 PM) anybody here using Illeagear v2? the GTX970M variant. Hi Blizzard,I've updated all my drivers and even set NVIDIA control panel to prefer NVIDIA GPU. Still get fps drops on Overwatch, even @ low settings >< normally it would run 60fps, but it drops to 30, even when not much motion is going on ( eg: back in base ). Can we test your machine physically? |

QUOTE(kalmit95 @ Apr 21 2017, 11:10 PM) Anybody using the z5 gtx 1060 model? Been using it for gaming and the cooling fan gets utterly noisy during load. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Just got it a week ago. Playing the Witcher 3. Temperature rises up to 78/80 as well. Hi,Is 78/80C your CPU or GPU temperature? It's normal for the fans to boost up in full load. |

QUOTE(kalmit95 @ Apr 26 2017, 12:16 AM) Both reaches to temperature of about 76C and above. Reached 85C also. It has serious heating issues. Fitted with ic diamond thermal paste. How can I solve this? Even on Dota 2 I'm experiencing this. It has only been a week plus owning this laptop. Normally there is no heating issue on the Z series unless there is huge dust wall or dried thermal compound.76C is fine for both CPU and GPU. For the 85C, is it CPU or GPU temperature? 85C is normal CPU temperature with Intel Turbo Boost On, it's a bit hot if it's the GPU temperature. You can send your laptop to us for testing, will assist on that. And btw, which utility you used for monitoring the temperature? Which surface you put your laptop on?

QUOTE(frozenkid @ May 2 2017, 11:34 AM) Wow.. was looking to buy a new gaming laptop and I was looking at what is available. But seems like ILLEGEAR has a lot of heating issues from the looks of this thread. My second option now is Alienware 13 R3. There is no heating issue on the Z series, neither on all other series except one model - Q5 (Clevo N850HK and N850HK1), which is currently waiting Clevo to improve its heatsink.Any good review about the Z5? The Z5/Z7 is capable to maintain the GPU GTX1060 temperature at below 70C in Battlefiled 1 twelve hours ultra gameplay, tested during IT Fair 2016 in Mid Valley. As for the heating issues reported by the recent user kalmit95, we suspect the temperature reported by him was CPU temperature with Intel Turbo Boost enabled, we are still trying to contact him to send in his Z5 for checking and verification as there is no update from him after the post. All the products have been tested in factory and retested by our engineers after customization to make sure the temperature is performing well before we deliver to our customers.

QUOTE(Jelly Puddie @ May 13 2017, 01:22 AM) Same thing happened to me too. And I bought it for around 6 MONTHS ONLY, which is unacceptable! How can it spoil so fast? Poor QA? It seems many owners are facing this issue. Please advice. Hi Jelly Puddie,Can we have your laptop serial number to check? All ILLEGEAR models come with 1 year battery warranty so if your battery does fail within 6 months, we are able to help to exchange for a new battery. Let us know before you want to send in so we can have the battery ready for replacement immediately. |

QUOTE(jimmy_grimble @ Jun 1 2017, 07:52 AM) hi.. my wife keep complaining about her Z5 touch-pad. if you are using the previous edition of Z5 (GTX860M/960M/970M), the touchpad sensitivity needs to be adjusted through the touchpad utility, the default sensitivity is set too low.sometime it does not response well. need to disable and enable using FN key. anyone got the same problem? If you are using the latest edition of Z5/Z7 (GTX1060), the touchpad sensitivity should be greatly improved, on both software and hardware. |
