My laptop Asus tuf f15 with a rtx 4070 and i7 12th gen H
It has been getting hot a lot so I cleaned the fans and changed the thermal paste and put mx4
Unfortunately the CPU temp still gets to 90° though I don't play anything needs performance like nfs 2012 but the GPU stays on 67°
Note : the AC ADAPTER is 240 watts and also gets hot that it can burn ur hand
Some days ago i found out that my brothers laptop witch is zephyrus g15 Ryzen 7 6800h has a cpu throttleing problem
Today i repasted the liquid metal thermal connector with PTM7950 (also i have the before after tests if anyone is interested)
I found out that through almost the full 4 years in witch he was using it the entire middle part of the cpu have had almost no thermal connector on it
I even touched it to make sure if anythings there but no , completely dry
Had seen a similar but a little bit better thing when i opened my own zephyrus m16 a year ago. I didn't know that it can be that much f...ed up
Actually makes me a little bit scared because these things cost a fortune in my country
I don't exactly know how high is the risk of such carelessness but from what I've seen and heard in social media it is very risky
If anyone knows anything I'd be soo glad to know.
Also ,Are all of the brands like this ? Or is it just Asus?
Whenever laptop gets started or restarted will freeze and look for repairs. I have disconnected all usb devices, updated BIOS, repaired corrupt files. I am very stuck, have done scans on hard drive and it appears to be working fine. I have cleaned cooling system also. I have a feeling that the problem lies with either the BIOS as when i go into that and default my settings laptop will work fine or armoury crate. I can't even do windows updates as it freezes when doing them. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi everyone,I need some advice regarding the exact thermal pad (or thermal putty) thicknesses required for the VRAM, VRMs, and other secondary components on my ASUS ROG Strix G531GW (Intel Core i7-9750H and RTX 2070 mobile).Here is the situation: I recently repasted my CPU and GPU using Thermalright TF9. However, during that process, I noticed that the stock thermal pads (which look like a dried-out grey putty/pads) are completely cooked, dry, and brittle.Right now, when playing heavy games like Red Dead Redemption 2, my CPU temperature instantly climbs up to 95°C. I strongly suspect that the dried-out stock pads are preventing the heatsink from sitting perfectly flat on the CPU, creating a microscopic gap that ruins the TF9 application.I want to completely replace these old pads to fix the contact issue.What are the exact thicknesses needed for the VRAM and VRMs on this specific chassis?Is it better to stick with traditional thermal pads (like Gelid or Thermalright Odyssey), or should I buy high-performance thermal putty instead?Any help or diagrams from someone who has successfully repasted/repadded this specific G531 model would be highly appreciated!Thanks in advance!
context, a week back I had horizontal lines that were all over my laptop screen, took it to a repair shop, he changed the screen, cable, and re did the liquid metal or thermal paste wtv on my stuff (game driver pic)
now after all that stuff, my laptop has since been unable to turn on unless plugged in, says 255% battery while the battery icon is empty, processing power has been tanked (super laggy), moving the cursor to the laptop screen doesnt work, and has dense vertical lines (discord) i have since shut down my laptop after taking that pic
what should I do?
What would be a good prebuilt pc thats equal to or better than the ROG Zephyrus G15 (2022), im in the Edmonton area and i gotta get this for under 1500 CAD, if im cooked lmk 🙏
AMD Ryzen™ 9 6900HS
NVIDIA^(®) GeForce RTX™ 3070 Ti Laptop GPU | 8GB GDDR6
16GB DDR5 RAM
1TB SSD
all i need is like 2 hdmi, and 3 usb ports for my mic, keyboard and mouse
I got my 2021 zephyrus g15 3080 ryzen 5900hs in 2023 and have been using it alot for the past 3 years and have never opened it up or tried to clean it internally and right now its underperforming by ALOT. i use a custom config on ghelper that allows me to crank the fans to the max and my gpu temps often reach 87°C. should i open it up and clean the fans? do i bother repasting? ive heard it uses liquid metal and thats difficult to work with. i dont think i can do these things by myself and taking it for professional work is risky because they might steal some components or work in a way that damages the laptop.
Hey all, hoping someone's run into this exact issue. Laptop is a Zephyrus G16, model GA605WI (RTX 4070), bought in the US, currently about 5 months out of warranty and I'm abroad right now so a warranty repair isn't an option.
What's happening:
What I've already ruled out:
The weird part: AC detection itself works perfectly — Windows pops up the "power source changed" notification, switches performance modes, etc. — but the battery percentage doesn't move in either direction while all that's happening. So it seems like the system fully "knows" it's plugged in, it's just not actually charging.
Called ASUS support and they said either test with a different charger (don't have one to test with) or bring it in for diagnosis.
Battery report confirms genuine 200W adapter (ADP-200JB), rectangle connector, nothing unusual there either.
Anyone seen this exact symptom before — detection working but zero actual charge current reaching the battery? Trying to figure out if this is a known charging IC issue on this model before I commit to a repair. Appreciate any input!
