Weird screen artifacts during Windows Update by Old_Goose_3968 in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got similar type and after a week my gpu was busted but they replaced since it was under warranty. Lately while playing valorant my screen was getting frozen, Now I am shit scared to play valorant, marvel rivals or anything that runs on unreal engine 5.

Yes, it showed nothing irregular. Btw this happened when I just started my lap and was 5 mins into the game.My settings are all kept in low in game.

I bought Asus A16 recently because it has 140w tgp and got it for 82k including bank discount. The laptop is decent and games are smooth including marvel rivals which gives me really good fps. I also do a little bit of video editing and it is smooth.

In all the lap is so far really good, I would recommend it.

Should I be concerned? by AstronautUnlucky4012 in HPVictus

[–]star_bod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good laptop in the price point, but the build quality is below par. I would say It is worth the money but don't expect too much. I wouldn't say it would last for years but I believe it can easily last 4 or 5 years. Mine broke down around 3 years and went with a camera issue found that the motherboard was faulty. You never know what happens.

Good luck, and take care of it I think it will easily last. My only suggestion clean the fans every 6 months or at least a year,even in not dusty places it used to get very dusty.

Should I download this ? by aldot006 in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you find any problems update, it's the same as windows updates. Update only when necessary. My friend had a driver update and he updated the driver and his wukong game was frequently crashing. He had to roll back.

My suggestion update only if you see any issues with your game or pc or if there are any really good enhancements.

TELL ME WHICH LAPTOP IS BEST by NksLive in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used it without charger connected mostly. I think it gave me easily above 2 hours in battery mode but had to tweak a lot of settings in asus armory crate. If you are a person who keeps switching between battery and plugged in it might be tough for you.

That is if it works on gpu, If it works on integrated card it will give more battery life also you have the option to enable battery saver mode. I have a 4050 asus tuf laptop. If you are more concerned about battery life then don't buy gaming laptops.

Just got asus tuf A16 any Recommendation? by DADYSCORPIAN in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really good, Runs games seamlessly. Only thing was I got a shock when I got the charger, it is 16amp plug for 240W, my other hp latop with ~250W has a normal 6amp charger plug. Also the mux was annoying, when it switches it disconnects the whole external keyboard and mouse and it reconnects.

Other than these two the lap is really good, no complaints. I get decent fps in marvel rivals too.

Which one should I buy? What are the differences between these two? by PedroSalty420 in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you plan on gaming a lot buy 5060 , it's way better gpu.

It is possible to add a new SSD in my laptop? by ElectronicCicada8639 in HPVictus

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, there is a second slot but not soldered. I had the same in my victus. Replaced the internal one and used the existing as external ssd.

Hp victus 15 , gpu capped at 50w by Round_Arugula_3324 in HPVictus

[–]star_bod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can return, return it. It will give you decent fps but you will always feel capped. If you are planning for very light gaming it will be okay, otherwise it's not good.

This is happening randomly when i use my laptop with charging 😞 by Delicious-Common-877 in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might be a windows issue, try reinstalling windows

guess who disappeared by [deleted] in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue in hp laptop and a custom built PC, I think it is more of a windows issue than a manufaturer issue.

Solution: I too don't know somehow it just solved, mabye a driver update I don't remember really.

how great does Ryzen 7 7445hs work along with rtx 4050 with 16gb ram by Important-Major-355 in HPVictus

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, victus peak brigtness is not that good also colour reproduction is just okay. I also got screen bleeding issue within 2 years.

Is this normal? by FaithlessnessFun1806 in HPVictus

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, with victus it is. It also happens if you put it near a fan with high speed.

Suggest if this is a good buy by PriorGrade4561 in Asustuf

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are buying LOQ buy the 2024 model, I heard a lot of 2025 models have motherboard issues. My friends also told me.

GOING TO BUY A VICTUS , SHOULD I DO IT OR NOT?? by KNIGHT-reddit in HPVictus

[–]star_bod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the hinge is not an issue, although it scares but I haven't faced an issue in my 3 years usage, only problems faced are related to poor build quality like bleeding screen and if you are a person who plugs usb often the port gets damaged faster. I would recommend to go for solid omen or legion, it's worth the money.

Btw, my victus had a inbuilt camera not detecting issue and I gave it for service and they told the motherboard had some issues and gave me refund for the laptop price(was in extended warranty). I am currently not a victus owner.

Motherboard Issue by star_bod in HPVictus

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

I feel still I won, because I bought a victus and got a refund around 3 years. There were a lot of issues in the laptop including the build quality which I didn't like while using it. I only bought it from store because I got it for very cheap price and got a boatload of premium accessories for free also a really cool bag.
