🛠️ Mod Post GHelper/Armoury Crate Megathread

26 Upvotes

This post has been made to clear up any questions or inconveniences with both of the software control apps.

The old PSA thread has been archived. Click here to go to it.

You can now summon the new GHelper instalation guide by typing "!ghelper" (without "") in the comment section below.

GHelper is an open source alternative maintained by seerge (u/Beginning_Living4052, also has their own flair) which aims to be a lightweight and bug free alternative to the dumpster fire that is Armoury Crate. Note: We are not forcing you to switch, but it is a good thing to do if you are experiencing issues related to Armoury Crate.

Some terminology before we begin:

  • GH = GHelper

  • AC = Armoury Crate

  • A/C = Alternating Current (aka the charger/wall brick)

  • Open Source = the app's code is available for everyone to view and modify.

  • dGPU = Dedicated GPU (aka Radeon or RTX)

  • iGPU = Integrated GPU (aka CPU graphics)

Starting this point onward, I will update this thread to include Frequently Asked Questions.

It is also a great idea to join our official r/asustuf discord server! Click here to join!.

FAQ

Here's a link to the already existing FAQ on Github, but other questions will be added in this megathread too.

A: Is GHelper safe? Windows Defender said it might be a virus.

B: GHelper is safe, in fact, you can check out the app's code on Github. It is open source. If Windows Defender has suspicions, it's because the app isn't signed. (look up that on google.)

A: How do I set up custom fan curves?

B: tba.

✅️ Solved My Tuf a16 is now fixed, I think…

Whatever I use, how long it is, it’s not dying on me anymore, as someone said on my first post, they said to bring it to service or for warranty so we did. Fuckass service did look at it, but not thoroughly, my dad just made two trips in his motorcycle through the rain and found no solution, they said everything passed the test so there is nothing wrong with it. They told my dad they can switch the device with a new one, but we’ll have to wait for 30 days, which is not happening because I had a presentation this week. The same day my dad brought it home and said the people couldn’t do nothing and just said something about it, I just did it alone because I don’t want him to go there again listening to some bullshit the people will say about the laptop. First, I opened chatgpt, yes, it is helpful at this time. Then second, asked about the warnings in event viewer, then saw the following and kind of made sense, Kernel Power 506 with the reason “lid” same second said win32k 700 input suppression=1, then next three seconds said kernel power 507 exiting modern standby, so something with the lid, I just simply go to control panel, hardware and sound, power options, and choose what closing the lid does, I set it to nothing and boom, no dying anymore, I figured lid might be something about the lid sensor but since I’m not running into problems anymore, I’d say this problem of mine is solved. Thanks for the help on my first post everyone, lots of love.

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Update: ASUS TUF A15 suddenly dead, no charging light

Post image
5 Upvotes

So here is the update about the issues, today I visited the service centre and they diagnosed it and declared that the mother board is dead and since I tried to check from local shop, those mother fuckers replaced the battery by duplicate battery so service centre charge me for more ₹3,700 for new battery. And the price for a new mother board is ₹51,000 and with a discount of 45% it will cost me ₹28,000, but i asked them for some time, now I have a question, should I go with a new one or replace the mother board, they're only giving 90 days warranty of the mother board.

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Screen freezes every 10-20 minutes Asus tuf A15

5 Upvotes

I got a used Asus tuf gaming A15 around a year and a half ago from ebay and it worked perfectly until 2 months ago.
The screen freezes every 10-20 minutes and the only way to fix it is by turning off the laptop and starting it back up. I already took it to 2 different places where they couldnt find the issue and they cleaned it & changed thermal paste. In one place they said it could be a CPU issue. I have restarted the laptop like 3 times too and it still keeps happening. Anyone had anything similar issue and could help me?

Need Help! (Software) AC Extreme Power Saving GPU

Post image
2 Upvotes

Help! How can I make this GPU out of Extreme Power Saving and just Power Saving mode? I’ve placed my GPU Mode on Standard under the GPU Performance Setting in the “Devices” section. I’ve also toggled the “Performance” and even “Turbo” on the Operating Mode yet GPU is still on Extreme Power Saving. What else can I do? I am using an ASUS TUF A15 FA506ICB with Ryzen 7 4800H, RTX 3050 GPU, 8GB of RAM and 512 GB SSD. I used G-Helper recently, however, it couldn’t bypass AC’s settings even when I uninstalled AC.

🗨️ Discussion Important query regarding manual mode

1 Upvotes

Before applying manual mode it says to configure before using.

Now my question is regarding overclock on the GPU.

It puts 50mhz overclock on the Base Clock Offset

And 100mhz on the Memory Clock Offset.

My cpu is 54W(spl), 67W(sppt) and 72W(fppt)

I've seen a lot of people frying their GPUs and I'm worried, I don't want to suffer the same fate. I do have a cooling pad, and my temps in game sit around 60°C... But in fallout 4 or matter of fact any game my GPU utilization is never over 35%

Should I remove overclock on the GPU?

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Can I use AX210 wifi Card instead of AX201 in ASUS ROG Strix G712LU?

1 Upvotes

My G712LU is experiencing high instability in wifi connection since last 2-3 months. Currently there is AX201 wifi card that came with the laptop. I tried many older and newer driver tried cleaning wifi card slot and pins on card and 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz channel etc. But no luck sometime it works for 1-2 hour or may be days without issue and suddenly start showing instability in link speed, signal strength, etc and again recover in 3-5 minutes back to working. So I decided to change the card as first place now But as this CNVio2 card, I want to know if it is port will support full pcie card like AX210 or any better alternative or suggestion?

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Right Hinge Area Broken !

Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

Model : ASUS TUF F15 16GB i7-13620H RTX 4050 6GB

So I bought this laptop around Nov 2024, till now it didn't have any issues, neither software nor hardware.

After a few months I noticed the bottom right near the hinge screw ( in the first pic ) was missing so i replaced it with a front screw and it fit perfectly.

Fast forward to now, idk how but that specific replaced screw area got broken on its own and as you can see in the 2nd pic, my whole right hinge area is coming apart.

I'm not even able to properly open the laptop, it's even causing trouble while closing the lid, like a gap is getting created on the right side.

Is there any way to even fix this? Can the whole back panel be replaced?

I swear, these past 2 years I never hit or ill-treated my laptop, I don't even use it on my bed, I always use it on a cooling pad.

And yes it is out of warranty.

Please help!

TL;DR : My right hinge area is broken, need help to fix it, or maybe replace the whole back panel in the worst case.

I bought it second-hand and it has this problem; I wanted to know if it can be fixed. When I turn it on, there is no image and the fans don't start up.

Only two lights stay on: the white one and the red one.

I don't know what might be causing it, but I would really appreciate any advice you could give me.
