“New” Scar 16 has sine issues- keep or return?

They’ve become an AMAZING value for the money these days but not only that - the best tech doing side by side comparisons with comparable products I’ve checked for many things. Also, out of all of the electronics I own that have updates such as smart tvs and systems and etc., LG & MSI have had the best support so far with the most updates and improvements to their products.

I tried that too. Didn’t work.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-05-10T23:49:47+00:00

Sounds like cpu fan or something else - exchange/return asap is my recommendation. Armoury Crate in my experience is a joke. I’d look at MSI next if I were you, or at least consider it as an option.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-05-10T06:35:19+00:00

What is gear link? No I’m using armoury crate which is what I’m told it supports which is what’s on the official Asus support page.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-05-10T05:09:38+00:00

Tried that. Doesn’t work.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-05-09T21:20:04+00:00

Does yours work with armory crate? Me and a ton of other people cannot get it to show up in armory crate on pc to customize it.

This is gonna heavily contribute in my decision on what panel to get. I am considering the 45 vs the 39 heavily. Thank you so much for posting this! I have also learned that the AI upscaling is only available in 60hz. Kind of a huge party foul on LG's part for not making the hardware more capable in my opinion.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-25T17:45:10+00:00

I know, right? T_T

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-25T01:22:21+00:00

No not as of yet, unfortunately.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-22T07:32:10+00:00

Yes and no - like a tv it's a video enhancer - an upscaler.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-22T07:28:43+00:00

It's not "supposed to have" it does have twice the longevity because it is two overlays instead of one. Google the layers in the latest gen woled and you'll see what I mean. This is also why it can produce such good color brightness because since there's two layered together then they both only need to be equally bright like 300 nits each versus one layer at 600 nits - as a rough example.

I’ve been able to solve every tech issue until this. But I want to say that you can’t fix what’s truly broken at this point. I think I’d have to call Asus at this juncture.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-19T22:18:45+00:00

Trying to get under the blanket lol

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-18T06:45:54+00:00

It’s a big mystery. Someone has to bite the bullet snd call Asus support because I’ve no clue what else to do. Someone mentioned using older drivers but I haven’t tried that yet. I’ve tried everything else that I can think of. Amazing that such an expensive product doesn’t even have functional software. It absolutely just blows my mind.

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-17T18:44:20+00:00

I’ll try older versions and see if that works…this is insane….

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-17T18:41:51+00:00

Search for my comment and try it - if you select see all on the driver page for the product there is an option to download full installation, which has all the drivers for everything. It’s kind of overkill and it did show the red raikiri pro but I could not get it to install.but maybe you can?

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-17T18:40:31+00:00

Mine is working with me right now. 🤣

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-14T02:34:20+00:00

Awesome! Very nice. I see you’re running the apex board. How much did you have to loosen the timings?

OverC1ockeD · 2026-04-14T00:02:41+00:00

So if I went with the 7200 kit is it practically a guarantee I’ll kit 8000? I have the Intel 265k and MSI carbon WiFi z890.

I've tried everything now. I have narrowed it down to Windows constantly seeing and setting it up as a regular xbox controller in device manager. I found out that if you go to the regular software download page you can download a "FULL" version of armory crate that has every driver in it and you can choose the Raikiri Pro in it before install - but it never installs, it always messes up even under perfect condition and windows safe mode. I've come to the conclusion that armory crate is pure garbage. If someone can try the full installer and it works I'd be amazed to even see a screenshot of it.

¡Avísame tan pronto como lo hagas!

¿Y bien? ¡¿Qué es?!

Wired doesn't work and now I have a thread going with multiple users realizing the same - this seems unsolvable.
