Looking for recommendations for a WiFi 6 802.11ax card (M.2/NGFF 2230) to replace my Realtek RTL8822CE 802.11ac card.

The Intel-based cards have some compatibility issues with AMD processors....

Sorry, I only have v309.

Hey, glad you got it fixed. Yeah, freezing while in the BIOS is a big tip-off. No drivers, OS, etc. running; so it points to a CMOS/BIOS/hardware issue(s). Hope you didn't have to wait too long.

I...

For all the issues and trouble I've had with this (A17) laptop, I can't agree that Asus is a "trash brand." I've been building custom, high-end rigs professionally for decades and my go-to...

Quick note on the freezing issue: For me, and others as well, it's related to Win10 ver. 2004 and MS Edge. I'm running Win10 ver. 1909 and freezing is completely gone.

Asus's standard...

Discovered something that may be helpful. I was running just the AMD video driver for the Ryzen CPU. But after in installed the AMD Radeon Adrenalin software/driver package for this CPU, boot times...

I still think 90+c is too high for sustained use. Too much heat is degrading for electronics. That said, the Ryzen 7 4800H is rated up to 105c! Yikes!

I had the same training (A+, etc.) and...

That's a great boot time! How long does it take to shut down computer? This is definitely different from my issue, though perhaps related. In my tech work, I've definitely run into long boot times...

I agree with your assessment. I did 3 fresh installs of Windows 2004 ver with same results (freezing and ridiculous boot times). So I downloaded the 1909 and all issues vanished. So yeah, 2004 is...

Yeah, I have the same hope that MS will resolve ver 2004's issues--they likely will.

So, when you power off your system, completely shutting it down, then restart what is is boot time like? And...

Well, I agree insofar as Asus's design/engineering team could have done a better job on this laptop and, yes, they should hear about it!

Re. the long boot time (that's what I'm assuming you mean by "restart"--or does it talk a long time to shut down AND start??): My Tuf A17 took well over 2 minutes to boot up. When I first got it, it...

I'm looking for several parts for my TUF A17 FA706IU:


Smaller Battery (I have the 90W version)
HDD Bay for 2.5" drive
HDD Flex Cable (from 2.5" SSD to motherboard connector)



I'd ...

Thanks for the reply, seba. I tried running both the NVIDIA and AMD native drivers and ran into issues. I will like try again. I've had to reinstall
Windows several times due to a number of odd...

I'm getting 107�C while gaming. Max. is 105�C on an AMD Ryzen 7 4800H. Not good.

Wondering what's up the the overheating protection and why system isn't throttling back as it should to help...

All,

Thought I'd post this as both a fix and warning about a driver issue that likely affects other AMD TUF machines.

I was getting random but fairly regular freezes that were not associated...

I have a TUF A17 FA706IU with random freezing issues that were caused by the latest AMD drivers from the ASUS drivers site. I used the AMD driver delete utility and loaded the previous...

Thanks for the reply, Blake.

Was a bit puzzled, tho. It sounds like you think i have mixed RAM in my laptop. I don't. I bought a new dual-channel kit that has faster timings than the stock RAM i...

I've upgraded RAM to 32GB DDR4-3200MHz CL18 1.2V. The original sticks ran at 3200MHz CL22, so these new sticks should be a bit faster. But the timings are the same as original, CL22.

Is there any...

Those ARE odd answers.

These are new machines so I'm sure there will be BIOS updates. Whether or not the issue of RAM timings will be addressed, who knows! Sure wish ASUS would allow a tad more...

So, don't know if this should be a new thread or not, but thought that since this is such a new laptop it makes sense to keep this in one place for now--and it relates to my initial question about...

Got the answers I was looking for:


Laptop supports 32GB RAM


Laptop supports RAID - There is now a RAID driver with user guides available for download on the ASUS TUF Gaming A17 Driver &...

The manual is very minimal. No mention of RAID yet BIOS seems to have it as an option. Support site FAQ has no mention of RAID either. So, can a RAID array (RAID-0, stripped) be configured on this...

Just got mine and waiting for the rest of the parts for my entirely new system!

I'm thinking we should get a thread up for OC'ing, support, etc. Yes?
