Failed product not worth buying
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bad review: Unable to automatically update and install drivers. APU GPU cannot automatically switch. When playing League of Legends, the computer only has 28fps with the APU turned on. AMD official driver does not work. I can only go to ASUS official website to find the designated official modified driver. The GPU performance is good, but it can't play 3A games, but it's enough for video editing and daily office work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from ASUS Answers
Posted .Dear XiangshengG,
Thank you for your comment.
We do understand your disappointment with this laptop and the inconvenience this may have caused if you are unable to play 3A games and the GPU not auto-switching from integrated GPU to the discreet Radeon GPU.
If you are unable to play 3A games and GPU not auto-switching, ensure Windows, drivers, BIOS and the Armoury Crate utility software are up to date. Updates for this laptop are posted at: https://www.asus.com/mn/supportonly/fa617nt/helpdesk_download/. Reconfigure your system, game, video and performance mode settings inside the latest version of the Armoury Crate utility software posted at: https://www.asus.com/supportonly/armoury%20crate/helpdesk_download/. Additionally, if you are playing these games online, ensure this has access to an established router and internet service is working properly since this will definitely affect system stability and performance. If these steps were performed to no avail, please try to run a diagnostics or optimization test using the "My ASUS" utility software or application. If this is not pre-installed on the laptop, please download the application at the Microsoft Store. For details on how to use "My ASUS", please go to: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1041686/.
If you need further assistance with the product, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.
