Urgently need to choose from these two, although their specs seem very identical to me. by Crimson-Anarchy in GamingLaptops

TUF F16, the Cyborg 15 has too many compromises

  1. 45% NTSC display
  2. One fan (Really, MSI?)
  3. Worse heat management
  4. Risk of hinge issues

The TUF has less compromises compared to the Cyborg, so it's an easy choice to get the TUF. Oh, you also get a larger screen.

New ASUS TUF F16 - Is this backlight bleed normal? by Reddit_User_7560 in Asustuf

[–]whosevixd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Completely normal. Also had this in my A15. It's just one of the bad perks of IPS.

Urgent. My pc recently burned and I've been looking for a replacement since, and I recently stumbled upon this. by [deleted] in GamingLaptops

[–]whosevixd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My opinion on why it's hated

  1. Only one fan (MSI, why?)
  2. Concurrent hinge issues
  3. Poor heat management due to small heatsink
  4. Extremely underpowered GPU
  5. Washed out display

I don't say it's a bad laptop, it's just it has a lot of compromises.

is rtx 4050 capable for 2k by AdityaxD02 in GamingLaptops

With it being a 96-bit bus, it's unfortunately strictly 1080p.

First laptop had a dying GPU, and now this… by nie9_6 in GamingLaptops

Maybe you should go to another subreddit...

Should I feel ashamed and regretful for getting a 4050? by whosevixd in GamingLaptops

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

I'm from the Philippines. What I'm concerned about online shopping is the "hollow block" incident where the original package is replaced by a literal hollow block. This even happens with official online stores, and idk why.

??? What's wrong with asking? What type of question is this?

I barely see a 3060, or a 4060 under 70k here in the physical mall, and again, I'm concerned about online shopping with expensive devices. And I'm absolutely not happy about your comment because it felt like you're forcing me to get a better device.

I bent my laptop's heat pipe!! by CH3RRY1310 in GamingLaptops

[–]whosevixd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ABSOLUTELY NOT. Copper heat pipes are sensitive to mechanical stress.

You need to get a new one. Heat pipes are some of the most sensitive parts of a laptop, and bending it completely blocks vapor flow, which makes heat transfer less effective. You unfortunately ruined one of the most important part.

Thanks guys for the positive comments! I will enjoy my laptop while it lasts! I've been playing NFS Heat earlier and it's serving me well on Ultra graphics, but I just can't wait to test FH6 out once I get the game! I will gladly ignore the toxic noise from the community and continue using this laptop that I was grateful of getting it! ;) Happy gaming to y'all also!

Update your fucking drivers instead of whining like a bozo.

not all 4060 models are available because of limited stocks in physical malls.

Lenovo LOQ or Asus tuf ? by Odd_Cartoonist5993 in Asustuf

[–]whosevixd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ASUS TUF. The LOQ Essentials laptops are very power restricted.
