If not, the regular consumer market would take a big hit. The relative low price hp probably pays for each components, vs the price for individual consumer units, has to be compensated in a way. However i do suspect that there is an other variable in play, namely commercial contracts between the actual hardware engineering/producing companies and the OEM as hp is. Although actually getting a hold of additional sticks through HP seems impossible. On the topic of the RAM sticks, I imagine it allows them to use the chips that don't sell (bc: slower CL timings) and force customers to buy from HP. I imagine there are some built-in throttling measures to prevent it though within the CPU & GPU, but I don't know. ![]() ![]() Increasing the risk of failures within the warranty period. Playing devil's advocate I can however come up with some reasons for the limited BIOS, on the one hand it's easier to create but it's also 'safer' as messing around with the fan curves & voltages could result in higher temps and perhaps even overheating. I guess HP might have thought that 'power-users' (for lack of a better term) would build their own system from scratch and avoid HP. I do agree with you that HP might have underestimated the demand for a more advanced UEFI/BIOS from this demographic. Although I concur that HP shipped a horrible BIOS for a system aimed towards gamers & enthusiasts, I still have hope for improvement to the BIOS.Īlso in terms of a valid response, I do want to thank for passing the thread along to the appropriate teams and hope that changes will be made that meet the needs of the more advanced user. ![]() Business PCs, Workstations and Point of Sale Systems.Printer Wireless, Networking & Internet.DesignJet, Large Format Printers & Digital Press.Printing Errors or Lights & Stuck Print Jobs.Notebook Hardware and Upgrade Questions. ![]()
