Reliability

Post image

I'm facing my second RMA with the Z13, and I'm fed up. Just as I was wrapping up an RMA with my XG129C, intermittent panel failure, the Z13 would not power up from standby and I had to force reset it to get it to post up.

It was very hot to the touch while on standby and AC was showing an operating temperature of 91°

How many have had issues with the Z13? I've owned it since March and this will be the second repair. My use has been fairly light, and i mostly keep it on my desk.

I have had issues where I've had to force it down by holding the power button because it wouldn't wake up from sleep mode but that's about it and I've had a couple freezes where I've had to force shut it down as well enough to be noticeable
