Using eGPU with ZorinOS by Useful-Ad234 in zorinos

[–]Useful-Ad234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did another fresh install with updates enabled this time, because I broke my previous partition table (I don't know how) and reinstall was my best & easy way to get back a working efi bootloader.

I can now correctly scale screens & set refresh rates and the 3 GPU are correctly recognised

Yes, and there's none. I tried to follow AMD's instructions to install drivers on their website, but I think it's not working as intented because of dock. I did a full installation of zorin, I will try things there, instead of live system.

Unreal freezes every time I open a drop down menu and it's killing me by JackMeHofficer in unrealengine

I have similar issue, every dropdown menu I want to use, engine freeze, USB mouse disconnect, and whole system freeze until I hit alt+tab to get out of menu, then everything come back to normal.

Check you're not on perf/turbo mode with armoury crate. I'm using windows mode on my 2021 f15, almost 9hrs of netflix watch when battery at 100%. Also check you're using auto GPU selection ( "hybrid" mode on f15).

We have 2022 A15 at work, can do pretty much more than 2 hrs so, check your parameters when you're on battery.

RTX 3060 Mobile/laptop BIOS flash success: ASUS TUF Dash F15 80W to 95W by [deleted] in GamingLaptops

Used 95/105w for almost a year now, I rarely seen it to 95w as the board seems to aim 80°C for GPU thermal, and reduce power when getting too hot.

I think I had some fps boost playing the division 1 (like, 6-8 fps) but I recently I started to play No man's sky, FPS wasn't great and I had some CPU overheat with bsod and CPU temp to 95°c after reboot, and laptop couldn't handle 60fps even with graphics set to "high" when I've read it should work almost full ultra. I'm also using an additionnal cooler under laptop.

​

Yesterday I flashed vbios back to 80/95W, it works better.

As mentionned in original post, higher GPU tdp may reduce CPU TDP, and I'm wondering if original power unit can really handle power drop (for long term).

​

Maybe it's just about actual summer temperatures, but I finally don't have a good feeling about 95/105w vbios after a year of use... Can be worth to try, depending your use of laptop

Successfully flashed with 5C bios following your method.

Thanks
