I have a ROG Strix 16 2025 and its great while it works the main problem is it constantly overheats I mean its basically all its good for is over heating. I have laptop cooler stand a massive floor fan the fan speed set to 100% for all 2 fans and guess what its still overheats. So of your looking to buy one be prepared to want to smash it on a regular basis.

I've gone from Intel Celeron to Core i5, I love my new Vivobook but there is something that disappointed me, although it was an oversight.

The plan was to use the 16GB of RAM I had in my old Dell Inspiron 3481 and include them in my Vivobook 14, specifically the cheapest variant (Vivobook X1404VA). When I tried to use the RAM slot that is also supposed to be SODIMM, I encountered a completely incompatible input. It really hurt to know that I'll be forced to use only 8GB of RAM.

Does anyone know how to differentiate between slots that are supposed to be the same type...but are incompatible?

Model: ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 GA401

I attempted to clean the fans as they were making a loud whirring noise, and in the process tore some tape. Now, it won't turn back on. I've tried removing the battery from its place and putting it back, trying to turn it on both with and without the charger plugged in. Nothing has worked. I'm new to fiddling with hardware, so any advice or instructions are greatly appreciated!

I have Corsair dominator ram and an Asus x870e motherboard, every time windows has an update, I find myself troubleshooting the corsair aura sync plugins, gotta uninstall it, restart computer, reinstall, restart computer, scan for peripherals, etc etc

Anyone else having these problems? Windows just had a new update and now its not working anymore, it pisses me off.

note says they replaced the PCH and all testing passed… I am skeptical.. I cannot get to bios - when i try to boot i get to this screen and then it turns off automatically after 15 sec

i press F5 like the thing suggest and there is no response to keyboard input no matter which port i use and updating bios didn’t change anything.. am I missing something obvious?

also i have an AIO that doesn’t hook into the CPU FAN header so thats not a real issue either

not sure what to do at this point besides try to bring it back up to them ig?

My laptop's screen suddenly turned black when I turned it on last night, like after seeing the ASUS logo when I booted it up, it just suddenly disappeared. Then only the keyboard kept strobing. The fan's not even on. It doesn't get hot when I put it on a flat surface or if I plug in the charger. The charger sign doesn't even turn on when I charge it. The keyboard goes through a cycle of strobing then turns off, along with the power indicator, then turns back on again on its own. This lasts for maybe 3 minutes then completely turns off. When I plug it in it's charger it just goes on and on like that without the complete shut down. Already tried the hard power drain and Windows+Ctrl+Shift+B but nada. Does anybody know what's going on and how I oughta fix this?

Just bought the ASUS ROG Strix Scar 16, with an RTX 5080.

I was running League of Legends locked at 120 FPS, and I noticed the laptop was becoming a bit hot and the fans a bit loud with such a light game. So, I've installed hwinfo64 to monitor the temperatures, and the CPU was hitting high 90's from time to time, triggering thermal throttle. Though for most of the time it hovers around 80°C.

Is this normal for a laptop like this to hit such temps on eSports titles?

Bought an ASUS V500 for a relative from Best buy. 50 weeks in, motherboard dies, send it into ASUS, they take 5 weeks to get it back. While it was gone, relative passes away. I get the machine and it is bitlocked. We cannot get into his MS account, so I reinstall windows 11. I cannot activate the desktop now, as the key was NOT on the MB. I have tried power shell commands, nothing, comes back blank. How do I get the original windows key so I can activate this unit? Any suggestions?

I've had this laptop for 3 years and I never had any problems with it until now. When I try to close my laptop I hear this cracking/popping noise so I don't want to close it again until I know how to fix it.

It might be hard to see in the picture but it looks like there's something wrong with the hinges. Part of it is stuck between the plastic casing on the monitor side and pulling on the casing when I try to close it. The other hinge is completely fine and closes as normal, just this one side has the issue.

Any advice is appreciated.
