Makes sense, thanks for explaining. I typically benchmark my desktop not laptop and with decent custom water cooling and beefy power supply I don't really see throttling or power consumption problems. Need to become more educated.

As requested:

Just finished testing after the update, so AIDA64 itself doesn't show any throttling but when monitoring the CPU directly it seems like there is. Before the test frequency was at 4GHz and voltage around 1.2, as the test went on that frequency dropped to 2.2GHz and voltage around 0.8. Is this not...

Just ran AIDA64 for 20 min on my 15" 512gb Model and experienced no throttling, temps peaked at 85c and once fans were at full speed temps stayed in the high 60s low 70s. Voltage peaked just above 1.0 and settled around .8, I am however on 1703, updating now and will test again.

Not sure if you are still looking but here were my results on the 15" 512gb model:

The USB-C port is just that, no Thunderbolt, therefore will not support eGPUs. Part of me hopes they announce a new dock allowing this but seeing as I've grown content with keeping a desktop and a laptop it doesn't effect me as it once did. A little disappointing to me that it isn't...

I can understand that, I was considering leaving until they finally announced the 2, been so long. But unlike many others I actually use the fully detachable screen often, and like you, love the 3:2 ratio. The premium is a bit ridiculous for sure.

Unlike previous M GPUs 10 series "mobile" GPUs are actually just desktop variants with lower clock speeds, that's why it shows 50% higher than a "normal" GTX 1050ti. Looks like it benches 20% less than a desktop 1060 but that is likely closer to a 10% delta considering that scores are based on...

I originally purchased the 1tb for music composition, plugins take up about 700gb's but after my Book couldn't really handle all the plugins (performance related) I just upgraded my PC with a 7900X and 32gb of RAM. My dreams of a super portable performance heavy machine were just unrealistic...

I definitely need 16gb of RAM, and the 1050 vs 1060 does it for me, I may even prefer the smaller form factor but the 1060 is a beast. SSD is quick enough for me currently so if it's any faster that's cool. Wish the 512gb 15" was more around $2500 but I can figure it out. Currently have the 1tb...

Gotta get that Quad-Core and GTX 1060, worth in my opinion.

I see, link?

Surprised to see no one post this but the Surface Book 2 was announced today, or rather 2 Surface Book 2's. One 15-inch model with 16gb of RAM a quad core i7 and a GTX 1060 (just as I have dreamed) and one 13.5-inch with 16gb of RAM a quad core i7 and a GTX 1050. Check them out: Surface Book...

Are you referring to the system restore, reset settings, or uninstall and reinstall of Lightroom? I can see a full system reset as overkill if it doesn't bug you enough, but the other two options should be fairly easy. Didn't work?

Let us know, if the keyboard on the Surface works that will be a pretty easy fix but I feel like it wont if it doesn't work docked. There is a reset all settings option under the settings tab, not sure if you have tried that. If these things don't work I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling...

I too have a 1tb i7 Surface Book docked to 2 monitors, I had similar issues. Sadly Microsoft's docking solution this time around seems to be a bit finicky. I have 2 docks, one at home, one at work, both demonstrate what you are describing. I have even had multiple Surface Books through warranty...

This is strange, I use Lightroom all the time and the ALT+P works every time. It works docked using a wireless keyboard, it works un-docked on its own keyboard. When you say "tune up" does this entail a system restore? Is this IT from your work? Do they run a custom image file? What version of...

Intel released a short promotional video for it's 8th gen processors about a week ago, whats interesting is that the device being used as an example is what looks to be a "space gray" Surface Book. As we all know there isn't yet a Surface Book with an 8th gen Intel Processor in it, could they...

Not sure if you have already decided to go through with sending it in but if you are 100% sure it is dead the quickest way aside from in-store would be using their advanced RMA option. They will send you a Surface Book before they have you send yours in, when you receive the new one you just...

This leads me to believe it may not have HDMI 2.0 ports: Pulled this from the product page: 21:9 UltraWide® | QHD IPS Monitor | 34UC87M-B 34” QHD IPS Monitor | LG USA UPDATE: Just above that it says the HDMI ports do infact support 60hrtz my bad:
