Hello! About to purchase the 2025 Zephyrus G14 Ryzen 9 RTX 5050 laptop for Architecture school and was wondering why RTX 5050 has such negative reviews. I personally really like everything about the G14 and I think Ryzen 9 would be powerful enough, and I'm just wondering if the RTX 5050 would really have that negative effect on the overall performance of the laptop. Thank you
So I got my Zephyrus G15 3 days ago, from a guy on reddit. I set everything up, downloaded ghelper and it was working fine. Then I downloaded The Last Of Us part 1 to check it's gaming performance. From the moment I opened the game, it started lagging and I let it build the shaders and put the settings on low and started it. It was fine for a couple of minutes and then it started dropping frames very quickly. I was getting 3-5fps on the lowest setting. The room temperature was 27°C. What might the issue be?? Also the laptop heats up very quickly and the area near the function keys is practically untouchable. PLEASE HELP ME. (Excuse me for my English)
Hey guys, I have a Dell G15 5530 using a 330w charger, its config is i9 + rtx4090. Recently my original 330W charger stopped working, and I need a replacement. Im pretty new to this kind of field so i have a few questions:
+ I’m wondering if I can use a lower wattage adapter (like 180W or 240W) instead. Will a lower wattage charger damage my laptop or cause any issues?
+ Does the whole G15 series share the same compatible chargers, or does it depend on the specific config (since there are many versions with i5, RTX 3060, etc.)?
+If I plug in a random adapter, is there any way for the laptop to show a warning or notification if it’s not compatible?
+ If anyone has a list of compatible adapters for the G15 5530 (especially the i9 + 4090 config), that would be helpful!
Any help would be appreciated! Thank you guys!
My G15 ga503rm motherboard went dead after my technician did some thermal repaste and cleared the dirt from the fans and heat sync.He couldn't take responsibility for the fault. Another engineer said he could fix it because the short came from some capacitors, but he also failed. He said I could buy another motherboard or, better still, buy another laptop. The price of the motherboard is quite high and I don't want to downgrade to lesser specs.The price range of laptops that matches this performance are insane now because of the forex.I have met with some engineers who claimed to be board specialists so should I just give up on the laptop or keep trying the repairs ? Also the only option for getting another board is Aliexpress based on my location. Can their product be trusted as I cant gamble on quality when the price is costly. The laptop would be on its 4th year though.
Does anyone know how to really check life and battery use 🪫
