    WHERE DO I START? 1. THERMALS Due to cheap thermal paste used by HP, cpu stays near 100 C mark under any load or games. And since it's a 10th gen Intel of course undervolting is disabled in BIOS or any other apps ( IXU or Throttle stop). CPU experience a lot of thermal throttling and will not last long under this temp. 2. RAM Available ram is only 7.8 GB. The integrated GPU reserves 230 MB of memory and since it's an HP device you can't disable it completely in BIOS because it's locked by the manufacturer. Basically the only thing you can do in BIOS is change time/date and select the boot drive. So 7.8 GB on a so called "GAMING" laptop in 2021 ?! Shame on HP 3. SCREEN FLICKERING The screen itself is decent but it flickers like some other reviews stated and there is no currently a fix for it. Some users say that it's due to drivers incompatibility between integrated GPU and screen. And as stated above you can't completely disable Intel GPU and use only the discrete 1660TI MAX Q due to HP BIOS limitations. 4. TOUCH PAD As other reviews say It seems to be faulty and very annoying to use. I don't really use it often since i have a regular mouse but for someone else it'll be an issue that can't be fixed. 5. BLOATWARE It's full of undesired apps that collects and sends usage data and eats your already small amount of RAM. Deleted on first start.

    I purchased this laptop for school and to do some light gaming. It has been a while since I needed a PC (mostly a Mac user.) I forgot how much preloaded stuff came installed on a HP laptop... So much crap. It works for school but I notice issues when I am running older games like World of Warcraft, the issue I have doesnt occur on any other game I play.
