Hello,
I recently discovered LuxCoreRender for Blender. It's a pleasure to use.
Here is my 1st try. Lots to learn ...
Have a good day

Yes,
For the last picture, i use the sky mode with a sun. The gain is 0.0002 for the light.
The halt conditions is 150 samples (approx. 4 min on GTX960M) + denoiser.
Texture Concrete is 8k.

Blender 2.82 + LuxCoreRender 2.4 alpha

No light cache ?
If yes what setting ?
what is your clamping value ?

sorry for asking so many question. the reason for that is that some time people loose a lot of performance due to setting issue.

You probably don't need this in this scene (DSLC is for cases where you have hundreds to thousands of lights).
