    Nineballo got a reaction from da na in Multi-year bios bug with manual mode on ASUS laptops just setting the gpu fan to zero rpm   
    It just has no interface, you can load into it and see the time, pick the boot order but nothing else. It's the most stripped down interface I've ever seen on a bios tbh. I'll boot into it after responding here and take a picture for ya. 

    Everything is supposed to be controlled though "armoury crate", and that is the interface you use to do everything from fan/power profiles, to bios/firmware updates. It honestly sucks though, and the third party tool "G-helper" does a much better job. This issue exists on both but less so on the third party one for some models.

    Basically your bios control is all through software on these laptops. The software does everything correctly, but when the bios is submitted a custom fan curve (from software) it bugs out on applying it and will 90% of the time just zero out the gpu fan.

    You cant, its a bios bug... That's the whole bug *you cant* set custom fan curves at all. If you try the gpu fan turns off and you just sit at 100c on the gpu until you realize. This laptop doesnt really have a bios menu for clairity so everything is through software.

    This is actually an awful bug, if you try and set a custom fan curve on an ASUS laptop if will just be zero RPM... Now this may not seem too bad at first, just use one of the quieter presets, except the laptop's power draw is also dependent on the mode. So if you are planning on playing games, you have to choose between not being able to hear your thoughts, or not having the performance you otherwise could. 
     
    This bug has existed for years across multiple sku's from what I can see, mainly the zephyrus line which is what I use currently. I'll link some complaints below over the years but how is no one else speaking about this. Is this something that could make a wan show it’s kinda ridiculous?

    If anyone knows anyone of influence that could make some more noise about this I would appriciate suggestions. For a machine this expensive this shouldnt be an issue, especially for this long.

    Honestly I'd just save it up until you have at least $80-$100 minimum, not much to be had for $40 even if you go used.

    if it does not effect you in any way and you are having no problems elsewhere then it might just be a bug in the Intel diagnostic tool. i know some of the microcode updates are breaking some(very few) old programs.

    Well if you want them properly calibrated you need to buy a calibration tool...

    Nineballo got a reaction from LaPiNN93 in Should I buy a gaming monitor   
    Well I mean someone has to put the best ones on here
    (my opinion ) soooo.
    these are both 1440p gsync 144hz-165hz 27inch models also both are ips.

    or

    if you have not tried 144hz I do recommend the difference is day and night especially with gsync! Also because of the ips you will get really nice Color without ghosting or chopping with va.
     
     
    Ps Msi monitors suck I own one that when put to 144hz turns all blacks purple.... I’m told it will be more than the monitor to repair+shipping cost so save yourself from some of those troubles... the ghosting can be up too a centimetre and a bit and it’s color is slowly getting worse.

    Yea I kinda dropped my new panel whilst talking to the msi support guy because it couldent handle it’s full refresh rate...
     
    i want something that can compare to the va panel that thing had... but with g-sync
     
    ALSO DONT BUY MSI MONITORS UNLESS YOU WANT A POKEY PAPERWEIGHT
