r/ASUS

i just got 3dmark at a 75% sale on epic games store and wanted to dial in my desktop cuz it fel a it sluggish on some titles and after a bit i wanted to compare it to my asus tuf dash f15 laptop, but ive run into and issue where it wont parse all the info from the laptop which isnt out of the odinary given the bio for this laptop is exceedingly difficult to use and u cant change anything on it which ig is normal for a budget laptop.

laptop specs-

processor-11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-11370H @ 3.30GHz (3.30 GHz)

gpu- nvidia geforce RTX 3060 laptop gpu

Ram- 24gb ddr5 3200mt i think

1x 500gb nvme

1x 1tb nvme

----------------------------------------------------------------

Desktop specs

amd ryzen 7 2700 non x cpu

Gpu- evga 2080super xc ultra gaming 8gb

Ram- corsair vengence 2x16gb 2400mt ddr4 ram

1x 500gb ssd boot drive

1x 2tb hdd

1x 7tb hdd sea gate game drive

1 open nvme slot

Monitor- 4k westinghouse tv yes ik this may be some of my performance issue but i cant afford a good monitor and atm i dont have a desk setup to work a monitor.

----------------------------------------------------------------

i didnt know that the desktop would have such a massive gap in performance compared to the laptop given the laptop will run some games far better than the desktop will. does anyone else have issues with these asus tuf dash laptops and 3dmark not working well with each other.

Should i upgrade my current desktop pc cpu and ram and storage or should i save up for a totally new pc minus a case ig cuz mines big enough but idk what to do and atm its just all crazy expensive for some stuff like ddr5 ram and newer gpus are crazy atm. should i transfer a nvme from my laptop to my desktop so i have a faster drive but that would make my laptop almost useless cuz its got shit storage?

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue with my ASUS TUF A15 (model FA506NCR) on Windows 11.

Whenever I shut down the laptop and then power it on the next day, the touchpad doesn't work at all.

A simple restart fixes it every time, so the touchpad hardware itself is fine - it's only happening after shutdown and turning on after some time

What I've tried so far:

Reinstalled ASUS Precision Touchpad driver

• Updated Windows

• Checked Device Manager for I2C HID device

Why does my FA401KH TUF A14's keyboard not pulse during sleep mode even if keyboard backlight during sleep is enabled in G-Helper?

I also tried a fresh install of Windows with Armoury Crate. It seems that the pulsing animation during sleep only works when the Asus Optimization service is disabled.

Hey guys,
I spent days trying to figure out why the RealTek ALC897 chip doesn't pop up anywhere in BIOS oder Windows or Linux in my ASUS Pro WS B850M-ACE SE 90MB1MN0-M0EAY0 board. After resets and many tricks tried Gemini gave up and suddenly mentioned that AMD Epyc may force audio deactivated. Nowhere in the manual nor website of the MB is this mentioned and Audio was my reason to go for this board. I reinstalled all drivers from Asus.com and also force installed the realtek drivers. Can anyone with this board please confirm that I am not just an idiot and audio really is deactivated or someone has a link with conformation? I am upset about the days I spent trouble shooting. Unfortunately I don't have another AM5 CPU laying around to test it directly. The diagram shows no shared lanes.

On other B850 boards Asus warns

>*** Once an EPYC CPU is installed, the onboard audio function will be disabled.

Asus updated and geo locks their site so that any google link just run into their start site clustered with ads and no infromation. All deep links are broken - great.

This is a repost because I couldn't add prictures in the other post. Thanks reddit.

I'm really interested in these, but I play a ton on Xbox and would like to use them there too. Does the dongle that comes with it enable that ability or is it just PC only?

Hey everyone, I wanted to share the final update on my ROG Strix G16 (G614JV) that died with a burning smell a few weeks ago.

The Situation: Unit purchased in the US, I'm currently living in Angola (Africa), and the 1-year standard warranty had already expired. It looked like a total loss, but I decided to fight for a resolution based on the 'latent defect' nature of the failure.

What I did:

1. I bypassed the standard chat and sent a technical, firm email to the ASUS Executive Care Team.

2. I focused on the safety risk (burning odor) and the fact that this specific 2023/2024 line has documented power delivery issues.

3. ASUS escalated the case and coordinated with a local authorized service center in Luanda, Angola.

4. They shipped a replacement motherboard internationally and authorized a free repair as a gesture of goodwill.

The Result: The laptop is repaired, tested, and working like new. I’m moving to Russellville, Kentucky, later this year, and I'm relieved I'll have my main machine back for the transition.

The Lesson: If your premium ROG hardware suffers a critical electrical failure, don't just settle for a generic 'out of warranty' rejection. Document everything, emphasize the safety hazard, and reach out to the corporate/executive level. Huge thanks to the ASUS Executive team for standing behind their product even in a complex international scenario!

Hello evryone,

Greetings from Bulgaria

Recently on my asus tuf f16 fx607vu i wanted to make a change from armoury crate where the computer uses only the nvidia gpu for evrything and bypasses the igpu. It was running smooth until i installed valorant and their anticheat required that i enable secure boot on my laptop but when i did enable the option “secure boot control” from the security tab from the bios menu and clicked to add the pk keys a problem arrised. The keyboard lit up and the fans started spinning upon restart but the display wouldnt turn on. ( my guess is that the setting which bypasses the igpu messed something up) and i tried different methods to reset it and such but nothing worked. Then i thought to open the back panel and disconnect the battery in hopes that it would restore the bios settings to default but it was not a success my only remaining option is to give it back for repair but im scared that because i opened the back panel the will void my warranty even though i made sure there was no damage to the motherboard or anything. The only thing that is different now is that there was a black kind of like sheet that was stuck to the SSD and RAM with double sided tape that i removed and isnt on the laptop anymore (i only removed it because the tape got fucked up and didnt stick to the SSD) if it helps i bought it from Ozone.bg and there the warranty says that any repairs made by unauthorized people is subject to a warranty void. I appologise if any part of my question doesnt make sense and i apologise for bad english (im Bulgarian). Any tips and info will help.

Thank you.

Just bought Asus tuf A16 16gb ram//1tbssd RTX 4050-6gb on 23rd march...when I go to warrenty checker it says warrenty is going to end on 18/10/2026...the retailer said it is false warrenty and it'll update after 7 working days and it has been 11days and still the warrenty is same, called retailer, he again said I'll be done within a few days, It is supposed to be brand new then why does it already have a running warrenty even before I bought it..they got the stock on 19th march and i bought it on 23rd, even if it was a warrenty for them then why did it start on 18th october 2025...I still don't know if it's refurbished or now bcuz the battery report was perfect with no cycles when u checked there before buying. I even have uploaded to get the right warrenty on asus update warrenty website 2days ago but still it hasn't updated.

Mine is having a lot of weird problems, so I figured I should check for a firmware update. The reason I'm confused is that on the Asus website, the latest version is V014, but my actual monitor is running V020. I don't know if somebody installed firmware for the XG17 somehow or what, but I'm quite confused. I don't necessarily want to install an older version if I'm going to lose features that exist in V020. If anyone with an XG16 can check their firmware version and let me know what it says, I'd really appreciate it.

Got a laptop from Micro center and I didn't notice it for a couple days but now every time I turn it on it shows "manufacturing mode" in the top right corner when it starts up. I've tried using google but none of the results have worked. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
