For better cooling, I repasted CPU and GPU, and replaced all the thermal pads with better ones.

Here is the specs of the stock thermal pad

I replace them with Liard HD90000 thermal pads

I used Thermalright TFX to repaste the processors, It has the best anti pump-out effect performance

 

Operating System: Windows 10 22H2

(Windows 11 23H2/24H2 has negative effect on the performance of Ryzen 5/6/7/8/9000 series processors, even with the performance patch installed)

 

After all the work, I used more power tool and set the power limit of the RX 6700M to 135 watts, I also set TDP to 135 watts and SOC TDP to 85 watts as well. 

 

Quick Boot/Fast Boot setting in the Windows Power Setting Menu is disabled as well. 

 

Other setting remained untouched, the power plan settings are up you. 

 

i ran the TestMEM5 (extreme@anta777 config) to test the memory stability under CMD1T settings 

 

I ran the Prime95 and OCCT extreme to make sure my CO value settings' stable as well

 

At last I passed the TimeSpy Stress test

 

and here is the 3D Mark TimeSpy result

(got the top score of the result that have the same spec as mine)

That's a lot of work to improve the performance of your laptop, but I bet you consider it worthwhile.


As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".
