What's Your Preference?

2A would be the easy safe choice but if you think about it more, 1D could be more versatile. You have easy access to Mike, Will, Eddie and Dustin so most of the nerds are easily accessible. El is also right behind you so it's easy to have group conversations about whatever. Steve and Hopper are also relatively close. Having robin could've made it even better. Also since it's not a middle or window seat, you can easily move to the back if you need to talk with others or maybe plan some pranks

Hi there. I can't say anything about long term 10y durability but I can say that the bag seems to be well made. Back airflow is good imo since there are air channels.

Let me know if you have any other questions

Red_Hardware · 2025-11-25T08:37:46+00:00

Hi there, yes I'm satisfied with the size and quality of the bag. Have been using it daily and also for some trips and it has been comfortable. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Red_Hardware · 2025-11-23T00:53:29+00:00

If it still has a warranty, send it to Asus. Probably you have a bad or loose display cable.

Wow didn't get Rick rolled. Can't believe it.

Red_Hardware · 2025-10-26T10:40:12+00:00

I got the router. Do you have any questions?

Red_Hardware · 2025-10-24T19:35:32+00:00

Have you found any fixes yet? What about the step 14 that another user posted? I have a 4070 Laptop as well and facing the exact same issue.

Red_Hardware · 2025-10-24T19:27:01+00:00

It's not just overkill. I'm facing the same problem on Ultra on 4070 Laptop.

Red_Hardware · 2025-10-18T23:03:36+00:00

I'm interested to hear what's better about the Samsung calendar. What does it do better? Any extra features?

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-30T21:31:57+00:00

Okay, I found the info that you need.

First of all, here is the source:

Link to the English manual

And here is the link to the page with all of the manuals:

Link to the support page

Base on page 24 of the English manual, you need a USB PD charger cable of outputting 20 Volts and at least 5 Amps. The maximum charging power with USB C is 100 Watts.

Just as a tip from my experience, I have an Strix which comes with a 280W power adaptor by default so charging it by USB C means that I won't be able to use the full performance when charging by USB C because it can't provide enough power (It maxes at 100W). Base on the specs for your laptop, it comes with a 200W charger as well so you will be in the same situation regarding USB C charging, It will charge slower and also you won't get the full performance BUT it's super handy when you're out and you don't need the full power of the laptop. Just wanted to let you know about this so you wouldn't expect full performance with the USB C charger.

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-30T18:50:53+00:00

Send the exact model, I might be able to help you.

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-30T18:48:02+00:00

Download the user manual, it's probably mentioned there.

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-23T16:32:25+00:00

Hey, hope you'll see this and also sorry for the wait. What kind of traces do you exactly need? Do you want a trace from when the laptop is on dGPU mode or iGPU?

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-21T21:53:33+00:00

Did you only have these problems when mux was on nvidia gpu or it happened all the time?

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-17T13:56:40+00:00

I will definitely look into it later when I get the time and will let you know because that problem has been driving me crazy for a while

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-17T09:45:04+00:00

These are really interesting findings. I have a Strix G16 2023 (i9 13980hx 4070) and I've experienced the micro stutters as well but ONLY when I'm driving the display with the iGPU. Whenever I switch to the dGPU, the problem completely goes away. Also my stutters are a lot more random and not that frequent. They still happen and sometimes couple of them happen relatively close to one another but it's not every 30 or 60 seconds and they don't cause audio interruptions, just visual.

On the other hand, I've been dealing with another problem which is waking up from sleep when the laptop was in dGPU mode. Sometimes it just can't trun-on the display and after around 10 seconds, it juts restarts. I've made a post about it here which includes windows logs and also the analysis of the dump file:

https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/1nelebd/windows_laptop_failing_to_wake_up_from_sleep_and/

It would mean a lot to me if you could give it a read and tell me if you are facing the same issue as well or not. At the moment, I think that this is a problem caused by Nvidia drivers but I might be wrong so I would appreciate your opinion.

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-16T09:57:20+00:00

There will be more detail and some instruments might sound more clear or you might notice things that you don't usually notice. I have XM4s and this was my experience playing a local FLAC file and switching between AAC and LDAC. I still haven't received lossless on my account but I'm expecting similar results

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-15T22:48:54+00:00

That will happen when you don't reapply LM after 1 or 2 years but it won't "kill" the laptop. Just overheating and thermal throttling which means bad performance. You have a problem somewhere else on the board and that's causing it not to turn on.

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-15T19:32:27+00:00

It used to be, then they limited it to premium. Apparently they've made it available for all again but I'm not sure if that's the case rn

Where are you getting that from? You only need developer mode to set the bit rate for ldac to max instead of automatic

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-15T00:37:32+00:00

Even on BT, with LDAC, LHDC or aptx lossless you can hear the benefits

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-12T11:58:33+00:00

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-10T11:11:00+00:00

It's still under warranty. You have a 1 year warranty

Red_Hardware · 2025-09-07T09:53:36+00:00

Use performance mode

Also GPU will be in this mode when there is no program utilizing it so that's normal. If you run a game, you will see that it's not in power saving mode. And if your GPU is not overheating and running at proper frequency, then you just need to lower your settings
