My gaming laptop runs incredibly hot during heavy sessions. I'm seriously considering repasting with liquid metal or a phase-change thermal pad.
Has anyone here actually tried this? Did it drop temps enough to justify the risk of bricking it?
My frames are absolutely awful on this game running at around 11-20 fps on 1920x1080 high settings, anyone know what I should do?
My laptop is a ROG Strix G15 G513IC and its bit charging even though it was charged fully bevor 5 mins and now I don’t know what to do
Is the pricing on this Zephyrus good?
Hello! About to purchase the 2025 Zephyrus G14 Ryzen 9 RTX 5050 laptop for Architecture school and was wondering why RTX 5050 has such negative reviews. I personally really like everything about the G14 and I think Ryzen 9 would be powerful enough, and I'm just wondering if the RTX 5050 would really have that negative effect on the overall performance of the laptop. Thank you
Bought late 2021, daily driven gaming on the wall with 40GB RAM and 3TB NVME of storage (1TB+2TB). Laptop is lifted on a stand for better cooling. Mode is set to manual with a bit of overclocking and fans at 100% 90℃. (Mode is set to Turbo for this current benchmark.)
Wishing to put more thought and research before purchase but I really liked its low-profile design and centered trackpad.
Build quality is a gamble having to return a bunch before in months years ago only to set in stone after replacing keyboard and fans. There is a dent on my display somehow the moment I opened it which isn't surprising from ASUS quality control. For now I wish for the best for my laptop to last another few years or more.
Games I mostly play are Phinal Phantasy XIV Online, R6 Siege, Warframe, Helldivers 2, GTA5(and enhanced), Destiny 2, and Payday 2. I also played Death Stranding 2 however... I wouldn't recommend playing it yet. My preferred graphics presets are take it easy 60FPS on low or high settings. Sometimes 30FPS if its badly optimized or idle gaming and lite gaming.
Hey guys, I have a Dell G15 5530 using a 330w charger, its config is i9 + rtx4090. Recently my original 330W charger stopped working, and I need a replacement. Im pretty new to this kind of field so i have a few questions:
+ I’m wondering if I can use a lower wattage adapter (like 180W or 240W) instead. Will a lower wattage charger damage my laptop or cause any issues?
+ Does the whole G15 series share the same compatible chargers, or does it depend on the specific config (since there are many versions with i5, RTX 3060, etc.)?
+If I plug in a random adapter, is there any way for the laptop to show a warning or notification if it’s not compatible?
+ If anyone has a list of compatible adapters for the G15 5530 (especially the i9 + 4090 config), that would be helpful!
Any help would be appreciated! Thank you guys!
My G15 ga503rm motherboard went dead after my technician did some thermal repaste and cleared the dirt from the fans and heat sync.He couldn't take responsibility for the fault. Another engineer said he could fix it because the short came from some capacitors, but he also failed. He said I could buy another motherboard or, better still, buy another laptop. The price of the motherboard is quite high and I don't want to downgrade to lesser specs.The price range of laptops that matches this performance are insane now because of the forex.I have met with some engineers who claimed to be board specialists so should I just give up on the laptop or keep trying the repairs ? Also the only option for getting another board is Aliexpress based on my location. Can their product be trusted as I cant gamble on quality when the price is costly. The laptop would be on its 4th year though.
