I dont know how but after windows 10 v1803 update MS had installed amd software. I have the HP driver packaging version but Im on adrenaline. I can use chill with exact fps settings per game via chill toggle. I can use relive and stream directly to twitch from radeon settings. This is crazy. My temps dont go above 90c. I run 144+ on quake champions 1080p low settings. Prob can handle medium or high. (I think high textures on quake champs requires 16gb system ram). This thing has ran beautifully since I got the AMD driver from Microsoft instead of AMD or HP. HP has a new driver for AMD since the v1803 update. I have not tried it. Everything is working so good.

Just for Info - my fan2 was running constantly at 200rpm. After a long battle, I have returned the unit and got my money back. I bough Acer helios 500 with 8750H CPU for only +150 USD - The cooling and overall laptop is magnitudes better than HP, so I reccommend getting this machine instead, you save yourself trouble.

 

Cheers and good luck with HP overheating machines 🙂

Have got HP Omen 17-an012dx i7 7700HQ + AMD Rx 580 GPU

There has been an overheating problem with the item: stress testing with prime95 and FurMark get T>90 C both on CPU and GPU

Fans are going extremely loud and there were CPU throthling also

 

The problem was solved very easily: just do repaste and temp goes radically down. Now I have no more than 70-75 C on both  while same stress tests! Approx 20 C down!

Hope that this info would be useful for community. Thermal compound applied is Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut
