my laptop shuts down or shows black screen with sounds and fan on if i try hibernate or sleep
audio is working fine on mine

Mine is working fine. Install 8.1 quickset driver and did you perform clean install after the upgrade? If not, then do a clean install. Audio problem is not in every game, only in GTA 5. If I install realtek driver then GTA 5 audio works fine but the waves maxx audio is gone after installing realtek driver.

AMD 15.7 and for clean install you can only backup and format your C:/ drive instead of whole HDD. That's what I did. I also have too much data.

They are
depends on which touchpad you use
My dad has a Macbook Air 13
I compared them side by side

Aha, I am using new mac book air and that force touch touchpad is just super awesome to use. If I didn't stop using it soon I might switch back to mac after the longest time.

oh
My touchpad is a Elantech One , nice and big just a bit smaller than the old MBP's touchpad
For force touch like functionality , theres "Three finger hold down" in Elan's settings
I use mine to minimise all windows
