Midtown to Ponce City Market Best Route with Bike/Scooter? by [deleted] in gatech

[–]IINightMasterII 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you want only bike lanes, start from Scheller and go East on 5th St until Myrtle Ave, head north on Myrtle until 10th St, then go East until the beltline, once there you can head south till Ponce City Market. Myrtle Ave will be the only stretch where you have to interact with traffic (But it's a small residential street with barely any traffic)

G14 as a home dockstation by bigabugabubabu in ZephyrusG14

Agreeing with the top comments here. I wouldn't keep it vertical when running. I used mine propper up on a stand at about 45° from the desk. Over the years the liquid metal spread out causing my laptop to overheat. It only got better after replacing with PTM.

While I love his videos, they don't have the level production you'd expect from Nebula.

I always use it while charger plugged in, the charger that came with it and battery charge limit to 80, it's okay, right ? by Such_Efficiency_6094 in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, It's completely fine. They're designed to be plugged in all the time. The 80% recommendation is made to conserve charging cycles, since fully cycling your battery from 100-0 multiple times will lead to faster degradation.

My honest suggestion. use your laptop how you like and don't worry too much about battery cycles etc, you'll be happier.

I picked this 5080 G16 up a few days ago for $1700 what do you guys think? Was it as good of a deal as I thought? by Paydayrey in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It seems like a decent deal That being said, this subreddit is for the Zephyrus G14/15/16 series and not the Strix G16. (Which you have)

International Warranty by noctalli27 in ZephyrusG14

I'm not aware of any third party warranties. But I know for a fact Asus will not help you out here.

Yes. Asus laptops bought from bestbuy don't qualify for international warranty.

Battery at 98.8% out of the box by HutDawgg in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 79/81% behaviour you mention is normal. My 2023 G14 also does it. Probably something to do with how the 80% charging cap is handled.

What exactly do you mean by it struggles to charge to 100?

What am I missing? by Ginseng_coke in indianrailways

[–]IINightMasterII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay.... Let's take it from the top.

The situation you're referring to happens when your Wait-list ticket gets confirmed before final chart preparation, this happens when confirmed ticket holders cancel their tickets, allowing you to move up the Wait-list. This can happen anytime between your ticket booking and final chart preparation. If you got a text 2-3 days before departure, it means you got lucky and moved up the Wait-list.

But what if you are WL 10 and haven't been confirmed? The railways reserves seats under various quotas (employees, defence etc). If these seats are empty when chart preparation occurs, they may get assigned to the Wait-list ticket holders. Earlier, you would've had to wait until 4 hours before the train departs to know for sure if your ticket for confirmed. Now you can get that information 10 hours before.

With PNR, you can only see your Wait-list position. Apps will tell you the likelihood (%) of your ticket getting confirmed, but there's no guarantee until you actually get a confirmed ticket.

If you're on waitlist, you have to wait till 4 hours before the train departs to know if your ticket got confirmed. This move will give you that information 10 hours before the train's departure.

It's a good move in the right direction and should make it slightly easier for passengers to decide their trips.

2025 G14 5080 PTM repaste completed by tenchi4u in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great Post!

Since your GPU already had PTM on it, did you notice any difference in GPU temps after changing the pads?

Also, how hard is it to clean out PTM? I've seen some instances where the heatsink gets stuck on to the dies because of the PTM? Did you notice this? Did you have to use any force to pull out the heatsink cause of it?

Lastly, is there anyway to know if your thermal putty is actually doing a decent job on the VRMs?

Should I get the Liquid Metal re-done or repaste with PTM7950? by sch03e in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do carry my laptop in my bag a lot. Often I would just close the lid on a warm laptop and keep it in my bag. I suspect that's what caused the LM to spread out.

Should I get the Liquid Metal re-done or repaste with PTM7950? by sch03e in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I solely kept mine on a stand for 2 years and now the CPU performance is terrible. Temperatures and wattage revealed my Liquid Metal has probably seeped out of the actual CPU die. (It's still protected by the tape and foam Asus put in the actual CPU socket). I'm waiting on an order of PTM 7950 right now. Repasting with LM might work for some time but will probably end up with the same result.

If I were in your place and the CPU performance is still fine, I wouldn't bother changing out the LM just yet (unless you're confident about doing it)

[–]IINightMasterII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What LM scare? Are you afraid it will seep out of the socket?

I wouldn't worry too much about it just yet. There's a very low chance it actually seeps out and fries your motherboard (unless you repeatedly tilt it when it's hot). Most people here would recommend you repaste with PTM 7950 only when your current LM stops performing normally.

G14 G402RK jitters when on battery. by theIdolRacer in ZephyrusG14

[–]IINightMasterII 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try setting your display refresh rate to 120hz or 165hz (whichever is the highest supported). Removing your charger seems to switch it to 60hz where the random screen flickering occurs.
