I've retested thermal performance for these 2 models. Here are the results:

Onyx (9750H+2070MQ)
Notes:
  • Turbo mode, equilibrium mode and max fans are used
  • CPU is undervolted -100mv core+cache
  • BIOS N.1.52, EC 2.04.09
  • PL1 70W, PL2 85W
  • BD PROCHOT is 95C
  • GPU driver is 431.60
  • Test is conducted in A/C room (~24C)
  • Laptop is plugged in
  • Core temp difference is ~6C
CPU - Aida64 FPU only (70W)
Max 88C, ~3.41-3.42GHz

GPU - Unigine Heaven (Extreme preset, 1080p no fullscreen)
Average: 80C, 1600MHz
Undervolted: 76-78C, 1650MHz@0.8V

FPU+Heaven
CPU: Max 95-96C, 2.8+GHz, 41-44W
GPU: Max 81-82C, 1455MHz@0.7V (base turbo clock for 2070MP)
(no problem handling heat in Game mode, refer to Prodigy testing results below which has same cooling solution)

Prodigy (9750H+1660Ti)
Notes:
  • Turbo mode, equilibrium mode and max fans are used unless stated
  • CPU is undervolted -100mv core+cache
  • BIOS N.1.04, EC 1.08.10
  • PL1 60W, PL2 75W
  • BD PROCHOT is 95C
  • GPU driver is 431.60
  • Test is conducted in A/C room (~24C)
  • Laptop is plugged in
  • Core temp difference is ~8C
CPU - Aida64 FPU only (60W)
Max 80C, ~3.08-3.1GHz

GPU - Unigine Heaven (Extreme preset, 1080p no fullscreen)
Average: 74C, ~1760MHz
Undervolted: 70-71C, 1830MHz@0.894V

FPU+Heaven
CPU: Max 95-96C, 2.76-2.83GHz, 42-45W
GPU: Max 81-82C, 1740MHz@0.85V (within turbo clock for 1660Ti desktop)

FPU+Heaven with Game mode (PL1/PL2 will drop to 50W/65W)
CPU: Max 95-96C, 2.91-2.96GHz, 47-50W (mostly 47-48W)
GPU: Max 78C, ~1580MHz, 80W

CPU: Max 95-96C, 47-50W (mostly 48-50W)
GPU: Max 76-78C, 1590MHz@0.769V

[GUIDE] How to undervolt laptop (Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU, 2021 revised version)

This is my own guide on how to undervolt Intel CPU / Nvidia GPU in your laptops. Hope you found it useful! Notes: This is my own method on how to do it. There are a lot of ways to undervolt CPU+GPU, but this is how I usually undervolt with all the laptops I had reviewed and with my own laptop I will try my best to make the explanation clear and will be using the undervolt profiles in my laptop as example As mentioned in the title, this guide is for those with Intel CPU (4th gen or later) or Nvidia GPU (10 series or later) or both only. Some laptops have BIOS version with Plundervolt patch that locks CPU voltage control, so take note You might brick your 10th/11th gen Intel laptop if you undervolted too much even with software like Throttlestop, I will not be responsible if something catastrophic happens To TGL-45 laptop owners: Only i7 and i9 has unlocked CPU voltage control, even so the laptop model itself might not allow you to undervolt the CPU. Check your laptop model first

[REVIEW] Lenovo Legion 5i 15ITH6H - Intel i7-11800H, Nvidia RTX 3060

The fastest RTX 3060 laptop? Welcome to my review on Lenovo Legion 5i 15 gaming laptop (2021 version, 15ITH6H). I bought this laptop myself with a special price thanks to a laptop seller I knew for about $1200. Main specs of my laptop are as below (model 82JH002MMJ ): i7-11800H RTX3060 Laptop 130W Kingston Fury Impact 16GB 3200MHz RAM (CL20 1Rx8, upgraded from stock RAM) Samsung PM9A1 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD 15.6 inch 165Hz FHD IPS GSYNC Intel AX201 W10 SL with MS Office H&S 2019 2yr Legion Ultimate Support In this review I will also compare a few things with my old laptop, Legion Y530.

[REVIEW] Level51 Forge 15X 2021 (i7-10870H, RTX 3060)

RTX 3060 Laptop GPU, any good? Welcome to my review on Level51 Forge 15X 2021 gaming laptop, also known as Clevo NH58DPQ. Main specs of the review unit are as below: i7-10870H (8 core) RTX3060M, max 105W 16GB 2933MHz dual channel RAM Klevv Cras C710 256GB NVMe SSD 15.6 inch 144Hz IPS Intel AX201 W10 (unactivated) Since this is basically the same laptop with Forge 15 Pro (2019), you can find out more details about the chassis itself here:  [REVIEW] Level51 Forge 15 Pro Laptop (i7-9750H, RTX 2060) - Member Reviews - Linus Tech Tips Build quality The laptop chassis is mainly made from ABS plastic. The lid is made from metal alloy - rigidity is OK when twisted. The sam e can be said when force  is applied on the middle of the lid cover. There is only minimal screen wobbling and the lid can be opened with one hand. The hinge is smooth and well calibrated. The bottom chassis, including  the keyboard deck and C cover, has only minimal flex when force is applied on it or twisted. Overall, buil
