I didn't do that. I went through the recovery option to bring it back to factory. With all of the stuff it came with. It shouldn't have fixed it, but it did.
I intend to replace the system drive today and I'm kind of freaked out by the prospect tbh.

I replaced my very slow hard drive in my 6 year old laptop with an SSD.
It in now working just the way I want it. Its snappy and with my cooling platform the entire machine is kept cool.
By the way, how do you change the voltage that is being used? Isn't that part of the hardware?

Supporting hardware will allow you to adjust its voltage levels. You just need an "unlocked" CPU - one of the performance tier intel chips.

Thumbs up for your persistence!
I don't completely understand all the attempts you made to chase down the heat problems, but everything was solved by the 'factory wipe'?
I'm curious as to how many other people will be having the same problem -- or perhaps your custom specs for the laptop made yours unique?

Oh this laptop wasn't custom. I basically bought it straight off the shelf, as is.
I've been on their subreddit and discord server for this laptop. This line has a thriving community of enthusiasts so it's pretty easy to find information. That was nice.
The other thing that's cool about laptops that didn't occur to me, is you're all running the same hardware, so comparing benchmarks is really straightforward and can easily highlight performance and configuration issues.
Undervolting the CPU on these machines is really common, and cleaned up any remaining throttling the factory wipe didn't fix.
Other people didn't have to wipe their machine. Something just went haywire in mine for some reason. It's a mystery. Though other people have had problems since unboxing I'm not sure how they've solved them in many cases because they often don't report back once they've figured it out.

Just reading this
[First 10 million members Part One](https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/637403/Looking-back-at-the-first-10-million-members-Part)
and saw
<o:p> in several places - what does it mean ?

Sorry, what? Quote: /ˌoʊˈpiː/ abbreviation for original poster: used on the internet to refer to the person who first started a conversation about something
So that's you, Pete.

Doesn't answer the question. Google search returns OP, which is Original Poster.
The question by OP was "What does <o:p> mean?"

It resembles the xml tags of office files...
Like <w:p> is a for paragraph in word... It maybe a copy/paster error...

Last week, while at the gym. I decided I wanted to listen to this, so downloaded it to my phone from the copy I have on my OneDrive. I've still got the LP somewhere although it must be about 50 years old by now; I created digital copies of all my LPs years ago for personal use!
I still find it amazing how close some of this is to the orchestral versions!

Fantastic album I'd never heard before! Here's another oldie that I have heard that is also great: Jethro Tull - Aqualung
|
|

|

I have that on vinyl too from the 70s.
|
|
|
|

My first thought was: that sounds a lot like Emerson, Lake and Palmer, and surprise: it was!
