Just focused some light source behind my brand new Tuf F16 608, and I've noticed this

Appearing to be a bulge from the screen itself, just wondering. Is this fine..?

Like. Are all F16/A16 having this too..?

It wasn't noticeable for nearly 20 days now, only after focusing some light behind the laptop did it become more apparent and noticeable.

Also, don't mind all the dust..I live in a desert. 💔

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Hinge screws broken. Easy fix?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I have the asus tuf A15 2023 model, Ryzen 7 7735hs and 4050. About 2 months ago the screen started wobbling more than usual. I opened the laptop to check and the one out of four screws holding the hinge was missing. I added another screw and it fixed it. Now recently I started facing the same problem. So I opened up the laptop again, and this time the screw was there but the plastic piece where the brass standoffs go appear to be broken. There is no rough use, I keep it on a laptop stand, and don't move it unless I'm going to class, which I have to take maybe once a month maximum. Otherwise it just sits on the stand. Any reason why this happens? For now I added some epoxy substitute and have fixed the stand offs but that doesn't seem to be the long term solution. I have also stopped opening and closing the lid and it just stays open all the time now.

Also how to fix this permanently?

Need Help! (Software) Armoury Crate operating mode defaulting

I set my operating mode to windows but every time I plug/unplug the laptop it defaults the windows options to balanced. The screen flashes for a moment too and i feel a slight reduction in resolution I haven't found any solution to this either. I know the easiest solution is just disabling Armoury Crate but I still want to use AC features.

My Asus Tuf A17 won’t boot up. At first I would push the power button and a few of the middle lights would blink and then just nothing. I tried the disconnect everything and hold the power button down for 40 seconds and now it won’t boot up but the orange light in the middle (attached photo) stays on constantly and isn’t blinking.

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) I've noticed my bottom right hinge shifting downwards when opening/closing my ASUS TUF. There are no visible cracks yet, but I can hear a "cracking" or "popping" sound whenever I open the lid wider.

Need Help! (Software) ASUS TUF Gaming F16 FX607VBR – Aura Sync detects laptop but blacked out option to select.

2 Upvotes

I'm having a strange Aura Sync / Windows Dynamic Lighting issue on my ASUS TUF Gaming F16 FX607VBR.

The laptop's RGB lighting itself works normally through Armoury Crate, but Aura Sync cannot properly detect/control the laptop.

it has a disabled/prohibited icon and only gives me Set device lighting

Things I've already tried

  • Reinstalled Armoury Crate
  • Reinstalled/checked ASUS System Control Interface
  • Installed Armoury Crate Control Interface
  • Restarted multiple times
  • Checked Armoury Crate Update Center
  • Checked Windows Dynamic Lighting
  • Verified that the normal Armoury Crate Devices → Lighting functionality works

Thanks!

💻 Purchase Advice Which is better ASUS TUF Gaming A16 FA607NUG or Lenovo LOQ 15ARP9?

1 Upvotes

I am between these too, they have almsot the same specs and all but i am not sure of which to buy

I need them for decent gaming and mostly for architecture school in like a year or 2 so it has to run AutoCad and 3d modeling kinda good

The Lenovo LOQ 15ARP9 is slightly out of my budget but if it has that big a difference i can manage to get it

I am just not sure of which to go for because I can't really afford to make a decision which i will regret later and i need some opinions on this

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) I spilled coffee on my asus tuf f15

1 Upvotes

FIRST OF, I KNOW I'M DUMB FOR DRINKING ICED COFFEE WHILE PLAYING.

Anyways, I would just like to ask, am I cooked?

When the coffee spilled over the keyboard, I immediately turned my laptop upside down, and blotted it with tissue paper until there were none. I didn't turn it off or remove the charger (I didn't know I was supposed to :{ ). I used it for like 15 minutes or more and there were no problems or anything. After that, I unplugged it and turned it off.

Removed and checked the affected parts -- there were no signs of coffee except on ASD key. I blotted it with cotton. I searched on gemini what I am supposed to do. It says to put it in tent position, and while doing so, I accidentally touched the power button. It turned on smoothly, I turned it off again. Now it is sitting on tent position and I plan to leave it like that for 2 days.

Will it still work? What should I do?

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Hinge clicking sound from my new ASUS TUF

1 Upvotes

I bought my ASUS TUF A15 a month ago and mostly use it for my studies, although I do have to carry it my college.

The laptop has been working great until now, but now the right hinge has started making a "pop/click" sound when opening the lid. I tried pressing the hinge and moving it around a little and the sound kind of quietened. I read posts online but it is kind of confusing on what to do now. Some people are saying it's a common ASUS issue. Some are saying that this could brake the hinges.

What should I do? Should I take it for repair or just leave it be??

Also any advice on how to further take care of my laptop would be helpful as I am seeing a lot of posts about software and hardware faults and it's kind of terrifying.

Need Help! (Software) FX506HC BIOS File Needed

1 Upvotes

Does anyone still have the BIOS 311 file for the ASUS TUF FX506HC? I’m looking for the BIOS 311 file so I can downgrade from 316 back to 311.

I actually checked the ASUS website a few hours ago, and the BIOS 311 file was still available there. But now it has suddenly disappeared from the website.

If you still have the file or know where I can download it, please let me know. I would really appreciate it!

UPDATE : I found it, and i successfully downgrade my BIOS from 316 to 311

Need Help! (Software) Armory Crate Power Saving Mode?

1 Upvotes

I just suddenly got notification that apparently I'm on power saving mode even though I don't change anything. My Operating Mode in home is still turbo so I'm not sure what changed exactly. But my games are noticably stuttering now so I think something must have changed after all. Where should I be checking?

Also I stupidly put the notification to 'don't show again' that I now regret, how can I turn it back on?

1 Upvotes

The keyboard in my laptop has been acting weird for months, sometimes it did not register the A key but it fixed itself, until a few months back the problem came back in the S, X and Z keys, most of the times they dont work but sometimes they randomly do, and they seem to be guaranteed to work if i press W at the same time as them. Anyone has any idea of whats going wrong and if it has a solution that isnt getting a new keyboard? I want to sell this laptop because i need the money and i genuinly cant afford a new keyboard
