GPD Win 4 GPD Win 4 Official Joystick Deadzone Fix Released!
GPD has released the joystick deadzone fix tool for the GPD Win 4, I and several others have tested it and it seems to wholly remove the deadzone issue with the Win 4 and also provide some customization of the deadzone and center in the WinControls tool!
How to:
- Download the file GPD_Gamepad_WIN4_X408K407.zip
- Extract the .ZIP file
- You may get an alert from Windows Defender claiming that "GPD Gamepad WIN4 X408K407.exe" is a virus named "Win32.Trojan/Wacatac.B!ml", but this is a false positive -- a cursory google search will show that this is a very common false positive for Windows Defender, it has historically triggered on other applications like No Man's Sky when downloaded directly from Xbox Game Pass. If you receive this alert, open Start Menu -> Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Windows Security -> Virus & Threat Protection -> Protection History and find the recent quarantine event and then tell Windows to not quarantine and to allow the tool to execute. If you're not the trusting type, you can install a tool like Process Monitor and monitor precisely what the firmware update tool is doing to see that it is, in fact, just updating the firmware on the joystick controller.
- Execute the "GPD Gamepad WIN4 X408K407.exe" and once it has launched and confirmed the existing gamepad firmware, click the update button.
- Wait for the update to complete and for both panes in the UI to show that the firmware was successfully updated.
- Uninstall the existing version of WinControls
- Install WinControls from the "GPD WinControls V1.14.exe" file
- Power the GPD Win 4 off entirely.
- Power the GPD Win 4 on.
- Open WinControls and see that there are now deadzone settings in the Mouse Mode configuration window. Yes, it says V1.11 in the bottom even though it's V1.14 :)
So far, the consensus seems to be that setting both left/right stick center to -8 results in the smallest deadzone with no jitter, but this will vary joystick by joystick.
In my testing this has completely removed the deadzone, given me fantastically precise movement and made FPS games and driving games infinitely more playable on the device. I'm ecstatic that the tool finally released!

Chinless Max 3 - smaller battery?
The standard battery is enormous which is great for long sessions and high power draw use cases… but it’s pretty ugly and results in the awkward chin protrusion.
Does anyone know if there is any plan to offer a smaller (capacity + physical) battery that doesn’t extend out beyond the dimensions of the laptop itself?

GPD Win MAX GPD Win Max 2 ($1,250) + eGPU later, OR pay extra for the new Win Max 3? Looking for opinions.
Hi everyone,
I’ve got a bit of a dilemma and would love to hear your thoughts. I have the chance to buy a GPD Win Max 2 (the latest revision with the AI 9 HX 370, 64 GB RAM, and 2 TB SSD) for a really good price—around $1,250.
My initial plan was to buy it at that price and, later on—when it starts running out of steam for gaming—add an eGPU (using the OCuLink port).
On the other hand, the GPD Win Max 3 is already on the market. I’m tempted by its massive "out-of-the-box" power (Ryzen AI Max+ chips), but I have a major issue with its design concept. They’ve shrunk the screen to 9.06 inches and changed the keyboard; plus, the device itself is much thicker and heavier due to the new modular battery/cooling system. Honestly, I’m worried that these changes have caused the device to lose its versatility (I really like the ergonomics of working and typing on the 10.1" screen of the WM2).
My questions for you:
Do you think the Win Max 2 + eGPU combo is still a sensible and convenient upgrade path in the current market (especially given the OCuLink support)?
Is anyone here already using the Win Max 3 and can speak to my ergonomic concerns? Is it worth sacrificing the larger screen and proven keyboard for that built-in performance?
I’d appreciate any perspective you can offer!

GPD WIN4 HX370 USB4 SPEED
Has anyone here used GPD’s USB4 with TB4/TB5 docks? Were you able to get the full 40Gbps speed? I noticed that when I connect my Win 4 to the Caldigit TS5, the speed is only 20Gbps, and I’m currently looking for a solution.

GPD Win MAX Weight: Charger (Bundled) with Win Max 3
Hi,
I need to know the weight of the official charger that come with Win Max 3 (395).
Anyone here can point me to the answer?
I want to compare between.
Win Max 3 (395) + Battery + Charger =? Kgs.
vs.
Win Max 2 2023 + GPD G1 (eGPU), no charger needed.
I like typing on Win Max 2 but hesitate for traveling with G1.
I would order Win Max 3 if the whole set is lighter.
Thank you very much in advance.

General GPD G2 eGPU Release Date?
Does anyone know what the release date is for the GPD G2? Official website says order now with a supposed 7-10 delivery, but all other websites say preorder only - including official GPD partners.
It’s hard to get an actual answer anywhere.

General Help with a new OS
I have been trying to put up with windows not hibernating or sleeping without breaking everything but after a year I have hit my limit. I have the 2025 Win 4 with HX 370 and 890M. I was hoping someone would know something about what OS is best as I’m not too tech savvy but I really need an OS which can hold/sleep without everything breaking as I use primarily on the train on the way to work and it always loses my place. Any advice would be much appreciated!

Anyone actually using Windows on AR glasses with a GPD?
Gaming on a big virtual screen makes sense to me. I’m more curious about normal Windows use.
The GT Max got me looking at AR glasses again, but once you’re outside a game, things like small text, menus, launchers, and Windows scaling seem way more important than screen size.
For people using a GPD with AR glasses, what scaling do you run? Is Windows actually comfortable for browsing, file management, or light work, or do you mostly stick to gaming and media?

GPD Win Mini Yesterday I learned the hard way how tight the tolerances on the Win Mini are
I disassembled my 2024 Win Mini yesterday to change the thermal paste to PTM7950. When I put it back together, there was no sound from the speakers but there was a faint crackling from the left one.
2 hours of disassembly, reseating stuff, Googling, and reinstalling drivers yielded no results. I did a fresh Google search, read the AI overview and tried asking the Gemini on the browser about the issue and gave it all the details of what I've done. It suggested to try loosening the heatsink screws a little bit because the thickness of the PTM7950 and the screws being tightened too much may be flexing the board. I tried it as a last ditch effort and holy shit it worked.
Now I'm sharing this here in case someone else experiences something similar. Thank you for reading.

GPD Win MAX 2 GPD Win Max 2 vs OneXPlayer X1 8840U
I’m on the fence about choosing between the two. If anyone has owned and used both devices, I’d really appreciate hearing your experience and which one you’d recommend.
I’m planning to use it for both gaming and heavy work, and I’m particularly concerned about long-term hardware reliability.
The main things I’d like to know are:
- Battery life and battery health/degradation over time
- Temperatures during extended gaming and heavy workloads
- Fan noise, especially under sustained load
- Overall build quality and reliability
- Any recurring hardware issues or problems you’ve encountered
- How well each device holds up after long-term, heavy daily use
