Ah shit here we go again

Ah shit here we go again

Hey guys,

As you know I recently got a Strix G16 5070ti, unfortunately the laptop auto shutdown as soon as opened any game after 5 minutes.

So, I tried reaching out to Vijay Sales, but they said Asus' gonna help etc.

Finally, I drafted an escalation mail to the Vijay Sales HQ. Surprise surprise, within an hour I received a call from the outlet saying that they'll either replace or refund my money, whichever I want.

Unfortunately, they didn't have another unit available, so I told them to give me a Zephyrus (5070ti) in return, for which they asked for 30k extra.

After thinking it through, I took the deal and now I've a thin and light laptop for the first time haha.

Full disclosure, the Strix was a display piece with 86% battery, and about 6 months old. The Zephyrus was seal packed so that was a deal maker.

Effective cost for this entire deal (post card offers) came out to be ₹2.3L. I can finally carry my laptop around without any back pain, so feels like a huge W.

TLDR: Got a new Zephyrus instead of my Strix by paying 30k extra

Thanks to all of you for helping out :)!

My 2 day old 5070ti Strix G16 hard shut down 19 times trying to play a game.

Brand new Strix G16 (Ultra 9 275HX, RTX 5070 Ti). It just cuts out while gaming. Screen goes black like someone pulled the plug, and just shuts down.

What stopped it, all in Armoury Crate: I turned the graphics power down from 115 W to 85 W, the CPU power down from 175 W to 90 W, and set both clock offset sliders to 0.

But that immensely reduces the performance. Any suggestions?
