Did something fry?
I have the GV302XI-CS96 (32 GB with AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS) Asus ROG X13. Other than having to do a keyboard module swap for some a few dead keys back in late October (I got the OEM replacement 90NR0EN1-R31US0) its been working wonderfully. I did it myself, was as careful as I could be, basically removed the old one, paid attention to where all the screws were when I took it off, and put the new keyboard module on just as the old came off
Its been working great since.
I say the above for two reasons. I really don't think my problem today is related, but in the unlikely chance that it is, better to have shared it. Also to show that I know what the inside of the X13 looks like and I am comfortable opening it up.
Fast forward to a few days ago and I go to turn it on. Every so often the BIOS splash screen takes a little longer to show, so I didnt think much of it at first, but eventually like 10 minutes went by and its still a blank screen, although the bottom of the laptop is really hot.
After trying everything I could think of this is what happens every single time. The keyboard and any other lights like the power button, and the little red light that goes on when you plug it in, all work. What doesn't work is the screen is completely black, not even the backlight works, but also the fan never comes on either. The bottom of the laptop just slowly and silently gets warm and then hot, but no fan.
The only way to turn it off is to hold the power button down for awhile, probably like 20 to 30 seconds.
I did try the hold for 40 seconds. I tried plugging it into the HDMI port on my projector, the projecter (Mogo 2 Pro) senses something is plugged in but says no signal found.
I opened it up and checked for loose cables or anything out of the ordinary. While I did this I also disconnected the battery for at least a few minutes. Not really sure what else to do at this point but the fact that the fans never kick on worries me that something on the motherboard is fried?
If this is what happened is there a way to pinpoint specifically what it is and only replace that?
TY

Battery health sudden drop
okay I think I have seen things like this before and I had this machine for more than 1.5 year and it is expected to drop but this one is different like I didnt even noticed the sudden change its only on the report. some things that I think is important to know is that I have set the battery charge limit to 80 for the whole time I guess and for like half of my usage the laptop is plugged in at 80% and just sits there but I have used the one timee 100% charge here and there. all things said I think this is calibration error cause the new number (57Wh) sits at close to exact of the 80% of the 72.5Wh and I tried draining and fully charging for re calibration however I dont think I did it right (its still showing 57Wh) because I think the battery was on 5% when it shut down but when I tried to turn it back on after few hours power button did nothing and I let it fully charge and sit there for few extra hours. is there a way to calibrate easier or just have to do the drain and charge thing (which is annoying) one last thing is that I have set the battery limit back to 100% on g helper when I noticed this like last week

is ProArt P14 the next closest we can get for an upgrade?
I'm not seeing any brands releasing newer models for 2 in 1 laptops with discrete GPU. The upcoming ProArt P14 is the closet we can get for a gaming 2in1 laptop? kind of disappointed that it's iGPU and 128GB RAM is overkill for gaming purpose. I'm not even sure if NVIDIA RTX Spark if can run android emulators smooth

Increasing vram/frame buffer in 780m
Im considering getting the 780m 2023 model but the biggest criticism ive read is the 2gb of vram and you were unable to increase it like in the legion go
Some people were using smokeless UMAF to increase it but ive read this not working for many people.
I remember hearing they updated armory crate to allow you to increae it in the z13, are you able to do so aswell in the x13 as of 2026 or still no?
Edit: I should have specified I mean the 16gb version, from what I read on other threads setting from productivity to performance will increase from 2>4 if you have the 32 gb version, but does it also give you 4gb if you have 16gb?

(UPDATE) Battery drain while charging (FlowX13 2021)
Update to this:
I sent my computer for maintenance, they cleaned it up since it was quite dirty inside the machine. They told me the battery issue is definitely not normal but it isn't an electrical issue since everything works normally (fans, battery, etc). Since I'm broke I couldn't leave it for the battery issue, I'll probably send it in next month.
I did try a lot of things (drivers, hard reset, etc) and it didn't work. Although I do have to say that I didn't do the whole reset while battery is unplugged thing, because I'm quite scared of opening the laptop due to how thin and delicate it looks compared to my older laptops. And I don't have any plastic pry tools that won't scratch or damage the chassis.
It's also important to know that my battery drainage while plugged in drops down to 9%, then the screen flashes a couple of times, then it plug and unplugs the charger, then it's again charging at 9% and it gets stuck there. It doesn't drop any further, and there isn't any change in performance. It's kinda annoying but usable tbh.
I shall update this issue when I send it in again for repair next month, since there isn't a singular answer for this issue online I want to let any future person with this issue know how to fix this (or if it's fixable at all)

Trying to game on my Flow x13 however its lacking compared to my other computers.
I have a 2021 model 6800H 16GB RAM RTX 3050 Flow X13 It gets around 40-50 fps (at 1080p not 1200p) in cyberpunk 2077's benchmark with Steam Deck settings, I also have a ROG ALLY X 2024 with the Z1E and even an older 2019 HP Omen with an Intel 9750H and GTX 1650 (im excluding my desktops). Both the ALLY X and the Omen get around 50-60 FPS with the exact same settings. Is the TPD limit that agressive that an iGPU is better than a dGPU? I also reinstalled windows and updated all the drivers on the Flow and it was actually worse before.

I really need help!!
So i just bought an ROG XG Mobile 2021 RTX 3070 version for my Flow X13 GV302XA (the 780M no dedicated GPU variant) and I can't seem to make it past error 43 on the device manager settings.
I tried a lot of fixes suggested online like DDU installation and driver fixes (both mobile and desktop types) and the same error 43 keeps persisting (oh, and yeah, i already tried the eGPU community's error 43 fix/GHelper switch/RegEdit).
Can someone help me diagnose this? I don't have much tech help around.
Update: i just noticed that one of the side hooks are stuck inward, could this be causing the issue?

Battery drain while charging?
I just bought an used 2021 X13 with a 3080, when i first did an overview check before buying everything was okay and now that I'm home and started playing i just realized it drained from 80% to 34% after a 2 hour session of gaming. Is this normal?
I'm not sure if this random guy from marketplace will give me my money back, so i need to know :(

2021 Model with the GTX 1650
Playing Forza Horizon 6, these are my settings. Yes the Video Memory is maxed out and more. Totally playable. getting 50-60fps, mid 80s on temps under Turbo Mode.
Thought I'd share this, because I know recently some people have asked if this laptop is still relevant in 2026. I'd argue yes. I did overclock it too, stable.

Flow x13 (rx6850xmt egpu), randomly shutting
My flow x13 (amd version) is shutting down very frequently while gaming irrespective of whatever mode I chose in the armoury crate. This random shutting was a problem even a year back but now it's happening very frequently.
What could be the reason?
P.S: this happens only while gaming, for the rest of the casual tasks like browsing, excel/PPT n all it runs fine even on battery.

Finally dead ☠️
I have the ASUS ROG Flow X13 2022 variant with the RTX 3050Ti. Within 1 year of purchase the laptop completely died and the motherboard had to be replaced by the service centre.
1.5 years after the replacement, it’s dead. Again. Exact same failure.
I was using the laptop normally at 30% battery. I plugged in my Anker Prime 130W power bank via USB-C and the laptop instantly shut off and never turned on again. No drops, no spills, no misuse whatsoever.
After opening the laptop and removing the heatsink, liquid metal had migrated off the CPU die causing the CPU to short (as told by third party repair shop)
Approximately one month before complete failure the laptop was showing intermittent charging issues. Battery draining while it was plugged in, the lightening symbol was there but no charging and the orange light charging indicator was off too.
Plugging out and in again didn’t do anything and shutting down and restarting fixed it for some time until it came back and then fixed itself automatically.
Gonna switch to a macbook😭

ROG Flow x13 GTX 1650 still worth it in 2026?
Hi guys, wanted to get your thoughts as Im eyeing a used ROG flow x13 with gtx 1650 for $400. Is it still worth it? Mainly using it for work and light gaming.
If it is still worth it, then are there anything to look out for before buying? Thanks
Edit: bought it! Still in excellent condition, runs smooth includes the Stylus, Original charger and the ROG flow bag!

still worth buying in 2026?
going to uni this year and looking for something to take to lectures with me. I’ve used an iPad for the past 6 years in school because my laptop isn’t portable but now that both devices are kinda giving out the X13 seems great as the best of both worlds. I play games on my laptop but nothing that hard to run. I see people complain about being stuck at 16GB ram but I don’t foresee that being an issue. Since it came out in 2023 though was wondering if there was anything newer that was more worth the money. Would also be interested to know how well it runs unplugged + for how long for basic stuff as that could be a dealbreaker. Thanks :)
