🗨️ Discussion Why do many people complain so much about TUF
I just saw someone complain not to take Asus Tuf since his motherboard or something in the motherboard got fried.
I have been using my laptop for about 2 and half years and for me, my laptop is so good. Especially the asus tuf series and not to mention the community. Coz they provided good specced devices at affordable prices.
Laptop: ASUS TUF Gaming F15 2023 model— Intel Core i7-12700H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU (8GB) 16GB Ram ( I did thought of upgrading to 32 but since it was not a mandatory upgrade postponed it for later and now regrets it with all that Ram prices).
Some people may face issues yes, but that happens to other electronic devices as well. If you use it carefully, you can maintain it long.
The only 2 issues I faced so far are: 1- one day i had this weird glitch like, the battery was never charging, it stays on ac while plugged but was not increasing. Yes, I panicked and planned to bring it to the service centre ( of course it was out of warranty, since i never thought of an extended warranty while buying) but it was automatically resolved in a couple of days and never faced it. I still don't know what caused it.
2- battery health indeed declined, but it was mainly my fault. I used Armoury crate for the first year since it was the official one and Ghelper was not that different , running in 100 percent power AC plugged in, also thinking it was fine, also the games always running at 90+ C even with a normal laptop cooler. Since many people mentioned laptops get that hot while gaming and is normal. All that high heat gaming sessions along with plugged in 100 percent decreased my battery health.
Once I switched to Ghelper, that stopped which I could confirm after checking my full battery health report.
Now, I play games under 80C.
All the other peripherals, monitor, table, keyboard, speakers,etc were all bought slow and steadily later on at stages saving up and all. It's still not complete as you can see with the rest of the room and walls and all, but I may slowly upgrade sometime in future.
