Hello,
I bought this laptop 3 days ago (hp 15-p030nr). It came with a 1TB platter drive and it was slow, so I replaced it with 512GB SSD.
I read many reviews before purchasing it, they were pretty good. The reviews said the laptop was good for gaming and fast, well, I got the short end of the stick or something.
I put a clean copy of Windows 8.1 on it when I swapped drives. All drivers downloaded from the hp site. Boot time is 51 seconds, that to me is insane. Playing minecraft I get a whooping 11-17 fps when moving and 55-60 if I stand still and stare at a tree.
I have another laptop I have Linux on. It has a i7-4810 and an ssd as well. I knew this amd would not be as fast as that beast, I would however have to say I never expected 80-85% slower.
Is something wrong or am I expecting to much? My Chromebook with the celeron cpu smokes this thing.
Any help?
