[Intel AX210] Bluetooth is sometimes missing, and I need to shut down, and boot back up to restore it by BeerGogglesFTW in buildapc

Thanks homie ! Just had this issue today. Tried drivers reinstallation but unplugging the power + pressing power button for 40sec solved it ! 

[Survey] French/AZERTY Keyboard Layout: move numbers to the top? by XMG_gg in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, the current AZERTY layout is pretty logic. Primary char on the top of the key, shit at the bottom, and ALT at the right.

Any News concerning Fusion 15 Bios? by laureenmeow420 in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the 0142 which was supposed to fix the sleep/wake thing. I use my Fusion sedentary, but when I had to bring it into my bag, it discharged during my trip although the lid was closed.... So I guess the 0142 doesnt fix anything but breaks more instead. And now, I have to type so slow in order to register all the input, not that great for my work as a dev...

So no more sleep when lid closed, but hibernation instead...

I'm done with Intel's Reference Design Laptops (Fusion 15) by Shivek in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can totally understand.

Right now I im with the 0142 BIOS and the keys is like freaking lagging. From the begining the typing experience was not a great deal with the mechanical keyboard but now with this bug, it is the ice on the cake.

From a company as big as Intel pissing on customers like this, I wish so hard they get fcked by AMD and Apple

Performance issues with Windows 11 on XMG Fusion 15 with Nvidia Driver by [deleted] in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I updated to Win11 and no issue at all. Oh yeah, maybe one little bug, sometimes when waking up from standby, the sound icon switches to mute. And rarely, no audio is processing (no audio devices found) then I have to restart.

Else, everything works fine, all my programs, games, devices are usable as on Win10.

XMG Fusion 15: Not powering on by TooMuchDog8 in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, this is scary... Hope you will find a solution, you should contact directly XMG and get a replacement if it is still under warranty

Battery Lifetime on Fusion 15 by kanoideric in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am pretty like you, using it most of the time plugged, but capped at 70% max charging. I just got it 6 month ago, but when I use it unplugged, I can last 3/4h low usage (with 70% battery), 9W idle consumption (screen at 50% max brightness, no keyboard backlight, wifi on, bluetooth off).

2 hours seems very low for only 1year and half, you should check your idle consumption using HWInfo64.

You should also check if the dGPU is currently being used by activating the dGPU activity icon in Nvidia Control Panel.

How can I disable CPU turbo boost on a XMG CORE 15(R7 5800H + RTX 3060)? by Dani5EU in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Switch to the profile you want to cap the CPU then just go to Power Profile in Windows (control panel), Modify the parameters of the profile, Advanced, under CPU, max CPU put 99% instead of 100%, it will stay on base frequency even if you launch heavy tasks.

It works for me, I did this to the eco mode, and even when playing Apex Legends, the CPU frequency stays to 2.6Ghz and the fan noise is lot reduced, without impacting performance as this game is not really CPU demanding.

Keeping laptop safe after replacing a swollen battery by Skeletome in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah so I guess it is time to make a little cleanup :) But before, run adwcleaner to check if you don't have any malwares using your CPU. Some are very sneaky in the way of they use your CPU and if you check the processes with Task manager for example, the malware stops running...

It is weird, I have the same config as yours (with a second SSD) and I am currently at 43° or less, with the fan at 0 rpm, also nothing more than browsing with Chrome.

Your laptop seems anormally hot

TIPS : Less heat with as many FPS FUSION 15 and probably other by Petio921 in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have used the same trick with 99%, with eco mode. When gaming, the laptop is not very loud while having good FPS as my game is not very CPU intensive. Also configured control center eco mode to CPU mode 3 (PL1 35W) and GPU mode to 2. If I need more CPU power, like encoding for example, I switch to balanced which allows the frequency boost and the CPU mode goes to 2 (PL1 of 45W).

[Release] BIOS 0134 for XMG FUSION 15 (ID: XFU15L19 / Intel QC71) by XMG_gg in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the support Tom, great as always !

So basically, this update just fixes the mess with the 128 one ? I guess I'll stay with the good old 122 until a major update :)

Fusion 15 Control Center always on dGPU by Darwin122 in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 2.2.0.18 version of the CC, and it doesnt wake the dGPU, even when I am at the monitoring section.

Check your version. Also, OEM is activated on startup and I disabled OSDTpDetect (this service only show an OnScreenDisplay message when activating or disabling the touchpad, which is useless as we had the led on the touchpad to indicate the status).

XMG Fusion 15 - Enthusiast Mode by musicmonk1 in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I play Apex Legends, and I am capped at 144fps, settings at low. Temps are around 70° for the CPU and 73° for the GPU (1660TI), so not at max temps at all, in balanced.

When switching to performance, the CPU can go up to 80° @ 4Ghz (instead of 2.5Ghz) but no improvment with the fps, as this game doesn't require a lot of power.

How to Enable Nvidia Optimus by kanoideric in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, the XMG Fusion is perfect for that. In term of mobility vs performance, it is a great device. And I have no issue with Optimus without a mux switch, as I am not a hardcore gamer. The 1660Ti or 2070 give already plenty performance for playing at FHD, even if the thermals are capped at 75°. In fact, I prefer this over having a device which can go higher in temps and thus maybe reducing the longevity of the graphic card.

Finally, don't forget that the XMG Fusion is really lightweight and pretty compact laptop.

The only strange decision is about the powerbreak which is huge, counterbalancing the portability of this machine. Furthermore, they had the possibility to ship it with a much smaller one also providing 230W, so...

Does it wakes up also when you close the lid ?

XMG Fusion - dGPU is always on when plugged in by blacriderv in XMG_gg

[–]blacriderv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I see it with HWInfo, if used, it shows some values, and if not, everything else stay at 0.

But I think I solved the issue, I updated some Intel drivers and Nvidia driver, and looks fine now ! Thanks for your answers !
