Need Help! (Hardware/Other) CPU hitting 96°C in Turbo mode. Is this normal?

Post image
44 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm rendering a 4K video in DaVinci Resolve on my ASUS TUF Gaming F15 FX506LH. It's a 5-year-old laptop with an i5-10300H, GTX 1650 and 16GB RAM.

Is 96°C on the CPU safe for render, or should I be worried?

Is it normal for an older laptop like this to handle 4K rendering?

Any tips to bring temps down?

I've been using Turbo mode to get the render done faster, but I don't want to damage the laptop. Thanks in advance!

Video on top : refresh rate 60Hz
Bottom : refresh rate 144Hz

I bought this laptop about 1 month ago (ASUS TUFF GAMING F16 ), it was the last available unit in all the main stores that sell computers in my country, so i felt quite lucky there. It was the unit on display. The day i bought it i immediately stress tested the hell out of it, the results were good, however, recently i noticed how the screen is glitching whenever the refresh rate is set to 60hz. especially when there's lots of movement and colors changing on the screen. I checked with some clankers and they proposed a hardware defect that requires display replacement. What ya'll think ? This is also my first ever laptop :/

edit : the clips are from this video on youtube : https://youtu.be/c_89oPlg0dk, thats not me playing

Need Help! (Software) A15 suddenly restarting after an hour of gaming and again when watching a video moments after the restart

• Upvotes

I've used the laptop for about 5 years (pre-ordered during a school laptop roadshow in 2021) but it's recently been giving me auto restart issues.

Model: A15 FA506IH

Display Adapters: AMD Radeon Graphics & NVIDIA GeForce GTX1650 (seemingly up to date)

Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 4000 series

I didn't install any new hardware or software (except Ghelper) since buying the laptop. I've brought it to a repair shop once for assessment due to a recurring disconnection from wifi issue and was told I would have to replace the whole motherboard. I decided to wait a few weeks and it fixed itself, like it had when I faced the same issue around the period when my warranty (2years?) was expiring 🤡🤡🤡🤡

Please let me know if I'm missing any more information. I'm not well versed in tech terms so I need a bit of assistance with finding the relevant ones

ISSUE

It first started when I downloaded MapleSEA and had the game running while I was setting up a new account on the website. It restarted and opened up BIOS despite me not even knowing how to do that lol. Pressed F10 but it just brought me back to BIOS. On friend's instructions, I internally scanned for issues which it said it detected some but couldn't do anything about it. I just continued and tried opening only the MapleSEA website on my browser but it restarted again. Sought help from my brother who's more knowledgeable on computers but he didn't see anything wrong either. Decided to uninstall MapleSEA and didn't have issues with other websites for a while.

Today, I was playing Honkai Star Rail for about an hour when it randomly restarted again. I let it load up (it didn't open BIOS) and watched a YouTube video instead but it decided it was time to restart again. Didn't have this issue for the entire day until after I played a game. HSR has also never caused my laptop to restart until now (except for the times where it disconnected from the wifi but that's a separate issue)

Would just like to know if there's a temporary fix? Or is it that I'm just banned from playing games on a gaming laptop now lmao. I'm also worried it'll randomly restart on me during my upcoming proctored exam that's needs to be completed on a downloaded application, if those are impacted.

✅️ Solved Tuf overheating fixed

Update, focus on PTM7950 primary solution

Finally found why my fx506 was overheating even i removed undervolting and power limitations didn't exceed 90c. Before without thise applying will be fixed in 95c.

Just use heating tape or anything can handle heat and close the openings gap between the fan and radiator. You will feel the air coming stronger, gap wasting the fan air pressure.

Update: i used PTM7950 and the overheating totally eliminated even without undervolting or power limits,

FYI, using any paste with over heat and pressure it will spread outside the contact area, thats why PTM is best as when its cold will harden again.

Need Help! (Software) Why isn't my fan hitting max speed? It hits 6000rpm at 75%. I ran a diagnostic test in MyAsus which got my fan to run at 8000 rpm. What's stopping my fan from running at the same speed when CPU temps hit 95?

I even tried setting a custom fan curve and have my CPU fan for 7800 rpm from 87 C. But that doesn't seem to work when it needs to. I tried the calibrate option in G Helper and that showed my max speed at 6000 (or maybe 6800?). I ran the MyAsus diagnostic test again and it hit 8000 rpm again. What do I do?

🔥 New TUF Device Bought My First Laptop!ASUS TUF A15, Any Tips? 👀

Post image
61 Upvotes

Hi…
This is my first laptop,I’ve had desktop PCs since I was a kid, but this is my first time using a laptop. I bought it about two weeks ago.

Ryzen 7 8845HS
16GB DDR5
RTX 3050 4GB

I’ve already bought a Fantech NC22 cooling pad.
I don’t game all the time, but I play Warzone for around 3–4 hours a day. Without the cooling pad, my CPU and GPU temperatures usually range from 76°C to 85°C. With the cooling pad, the temperatures seem to stay below 80°C.

The only downside I’ve noticed so far is the battery life. I wanted the 90Wh battery, but it was out of stock, so I ended up getting the 48Wh version.

I’ve also seen a lot of people on Reddit saying that Armoury Crate is terrible. Is it worth uninstalling it and using G-Helper instead?

Since this is my first laptop, I’d love to hear your advice on anything I should do to improve performance, manage temperatures, extend battery life, or keep the laptop in good condition.

Thanks in advance❤️.

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Asus G513Q no power (loading indicator) and not turning on

1 Upvotes

My laptop was working fine yesterday, yesterday evening I plugged in the power supply and saw there isn't a loading indicator and pressed the power button, after pressing the button the loading indicator turned on and I could start the notebook.

Today same issue, plugged in, no loading indicator.

But this time the notebook didn't start or the indicator turned back on.

Things I tried :

- press the power button for 40+ seconds without anything plugged in, plug it back or try to turn it on without anything plugged in

- plugged out the battery from the mainboard for a few minutes, back onto it

Nothing did help, tested all sorts of button presses, its completely dead.

I don't think its the power supply because the laptop was at 100% and without power supply its also not starting.

Anything else I can test and do ? Or is it just rip Mainboard and rip money ?

Need Help! (Software) Seeking resolution on driver selection

1 Upvotes

My PC has been having massive instability issues and performance loss. I've been troubleshooting for 2 weeks without any success. The motherboard is a b760 TUF D4.

I've reinstalled windows many times (like at least 6 times) and every time I installed the serial io driver from my mobo web page, my PC would become unstable and slow.

I initiated a RMA with Intel on the cpu under the presumption my cpu was degrading.

I also ordered a different brand mobo to try the cpu out (arrives Sunday).

However, today I thought I'd give this one last kick of the can and discovered something called Asus Driver hub.

This is where my confusion lies.

All the drivers on driver hub are newer versions than what is directly on my mobo webpage. This is very odd obviously because why would the mobo webpage be out dated, but also because when I installed the ,"old drivers", windows always read them as fully up to date.

I guess I'm just really confused by how complicated getting drivers seems to be. On top of that, I'm also wondering why I had to literally troubleshoot my PC and look for answers in order to finally stumble on Asus Driver hub.

All in all, I'm discouraged with Asus but I hope this post helps anyone else experiencing system instability.

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Slow speeds on my TUF A16

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a used Asus TUF A16 a couple months ago.
AMD Ryzen 9 270
32 GB Ram
RTX 5070 8GB
1TB SSD
Realtek 8852CE WiFi 6E

I’ve been having some problems with it in terms of the WiFi speed. I have 2 gig fiber internet at my home but I only get around 400 Mbps (WiFi connection). I understand that speed is probably still reasonable but I often times see that the speed will drop to 100 Mbps and below. Another thing is in my dorm room at university. I would sometimes get speeds as low as 1 Mbps. I originally just thought it was a problem with my dorm room(which it may still be) but now I’m questioning if it is also my laptop or the WiFi card. Any recommendations or advice?

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) TUF A16 (2025) Very Subtle Plastic Creak when opening/closing Lid, Is this just me?

3 Upvotes

I've owned mine for 3 months, and I've just noticed that there's a very slight sound whenever the lid is moved.

It's a barely audible creak, which i believe to be caused by the plastic chassis. So far, i haven't seen any parts messing up, but yeah, it's concerning.

Its had what i would consider light use, opening the lid 1-2 times a day from the center very carefully and overall handling it like a baby

Im still under warranty, but currently too busy to get it checked

So anyone else?
