Wow, thanks for this tip! It worked!!! You saved my bacon again and kept my G20 klunker out of the recycle bin yet again :)

Hi All,
Late to the party but I just wanted to report that I have upgraded the GPU on my G20AJ as well...several times in fact.
I started with the built-in GTX745, and upgraded to a GTX 970, then...

I don't think Asus is interested in supporting our G20s.
They've moved on to their newer products where the money is. So much for brand loyalty.
This is my last Asus product. Will replace this...

I installed it exactly where you described. Do you mean try a different SATA and power cable?

I've had a similar experience.
I have a Crucial 750Gb SSD and the default Toshiba 1TB.
For some reason when I hard reset the unit when it hangs or if a brownout occurs, after booting, it cannot...

It's 6.0mmx3.7mm
I got one of these and it works fine.

You could try removing the bottom panel and putting the laptop on a cooler pad.

Found these 7.4mm*5.0mm to 6.0mm*3.7mm converter cables that work with our Zephys
You can use these on various Dell, Alienware, HP, etc. power supplies that are 200w and higher and have a...

Thanks for your reply. Just to be clear, the HDMI port works as long as you don't connect it to an HDMI 2.0 port on a display device.
I have yet to see someone claim (and show proof!) that his...

Same here. Can't run my Samsung HMD Odyssey VR headset on the built-in HDMI port and I have to use a TB3 to HDMI 2.0 adapter to make it work.
Asus please fix this!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys, can you check your battery wear level using an app such as BatteryBar or BatteryInfoView? Mine registered 3.2% wear when I got my Zephy last Friday, two full drain and charge sessions later...

Will do. In the meantime, in case you haven't seen this... Notebookcheck's in-depth review of the Zephy

@dianebrat, thanks for the reply. I meant to say that I have the same model the OP has but the Asus Lighting software on mine doesn't do color cycling. The newer models (G20CB) have an updated...

Great find! Let us know how it goes. What's the model number of the kit btw?

Excellent news! Thanks for getting back to us! I am salivating at the thought of running the GTX 980ti on the G20...

Here's a link from another thread referencing a Dell 330W power supply that might give you the headroom that you need.

Good...

Thanks!

May I ask for the part number? I've found several 330W PSUs here:

The voltage is just right at 19.5V. The amperage will depend on what the PSU will be powering. 330W gives a lot of headroom especially if you are only powering a GTX 970 which tops out between...
