Armoury Crate is often required on ASUS laptops, but in daily use it can be heavy and runs multiple background services.

After testing an alternative called G-Helper, I noticed:

• Lower background resource usage
• Simpler control over performance modes
• Easier fan and power profile management
• No constant services running in the background

Before the switch, my CPU was regularly hitting 90°C+ while gaming. After moving to G-Helper and adjusting fan/performance settings, I observed a noticeable temperature reduction during similar gaming sessions.

It may not replace every Armoury Crate feature for everyone, but for gaming and thermal control, it can be a simpler setup.

If you try it, make sure to fully remove Armoury Crate and ASUS background services first, then reboot before installing G-Helper and after installation don't forget to disable cpu boost from settings.
