hi...i have selenite pro i7-9750 with rtx2060.

i want to upgrade my SSD to 1TB as my current 500gb is not enough (blame COD). so, i plan to buy upgrade ssd from illigear 1TB as my main and my current 500gb as my 2nd hd.
just wanna ask few things.

1) if i upgrade SSD from Illigear, how long will it takes for illigear to install new SSD along with clean windows install if i bring my laptop to center?? will it take days or can it be done onsite settle that day it self??

2) If illigear unable to do it on the same day (maybe gonna take weeks), can i buy my own SSD and install it myself? will this void the warranty? - i really need the laptop as it is my daily work machine.

3) i prefer illigear to do clean install everything (bios/windows/drivers), just like getting new laptop...however, if i choose to upgrade the ssd myself (refer quest 2)...will illigear support help me with bios/windows installation?? ---bcoz, i really noobshit about laptop.

thanks...

I have noticed the selenite will charge the battery after power up the PC even though it is fully charge before shut down.
With this rate, the battery will be swollen up like most of the selenite user's case.

Anyone has any solution so far or have to send yo Illegear for check up?

Again, battery MUST NOT be the primary power source. It isn't rocket science. Why does GPU PL throttling goes away when driver is re-installed but comes back after os restarts or wakes from hibernation?

Hey Jerald, thank you for your prompt reply, its my first time purchasing illegear and u made your point there. I did some research for the pass weeks, unfortunately doesn't have much review on selenite G, instead of selenite Pro (Maybe its new). On the side note, as you said they are several complains about Selenite Pro keyboard they are quite packed for a 17inch laptop and they switches to membrane key which its a turn off to me, despite the loud noise of mechanical are always my first choice. For the weight issue, should be not a problem for me cos my workplace frm my house are 5min apart (by car) and i will be carrying in a backpack with some documents and i had a desegnated parking spot for me able to access to my office room.

I'm not planning to maxed out my rig anyway, i just need a decent one should be good to go.

I've made my decision and i might go for the Selenite G and i will be placing order by 30/10. They are offering some Halloween bundle.

here is my basics configuration, anything i should subtract or adding in? am i missing something?

Roger that, thanks for the tips. will remove it on my list. Anything should i be adding in or subtract it out before making my order?

Yeah 1Tb samsung 981a is free for halloween package.

The OS system should i go for the free trial first which is free? or i get the 64bit OEM edition which cost around extra RM449.

can we change light bar colour?

EDIT: my illegear command centre does not have the below button to switch over backlight/LED Light bar..

EDIT2: my command centre version is already latest.. 1.0.0.50
