      It doesn't manage it at all.

      In the summer, sometimes even when the laptop is idle the fan is still on.

    You might cringe about the cooling solution at first look but it is quite sufficient since the heat sink is the one that transfer the heat to the air through its surface area while the fan promotes airflow. Its not that bad of a design considering what this product is oriented and in order to squeeze more profits by cutting cost. I have seen it perform quite well: ruclips.net/video/IBZkUxTszNs/видео.html. I'm more impressed on the one that designed it though since it's functional. Seen worse in apple here: ruclips.net/video/iiCBYAP_Sgg/видео.html. To those who are having problems you might be blocking the intake or the ambient temp are quite high, try repasting it too.

  • @pedroinacio_maths
    @pedroinacio_maths 4 года назад +15

    I have this laptop. The cooling solution by itself makes it not worthy.
    How dumb can they be to not connect the fan to the heatpipe?
    The laptop heats up a lot, on the side of the cpu, while the fan side is rtelativelly cool. Also, because it gets so warm, the fan is almost always on and very loud.
    This was the last ASUS product I will ever buy. I do not will ever give my money to a brand that makes products this bad.

      From what I've seen there's a kit that comes with the laptop. You can fit a 3.5" drive in the spot, and there's a harness that goes from SATA to a ribbon cable. You can see the ribbon cable connection just under the m.2 drive. I'll have mine in this week, I have an SSD ready to go for it. If I'm wrong I'll report it back on here.

      @@Il-Cappuccino I have it and I've looked multiple times. You'll need to flash the bios chip directly if anything bad happens.

    Como pueden apreciar la imagen ... creo que esa laptop esta mas diseñada para paises con clima frio, paises calurosos y con humedad la laptop se condensara y en un futuro fallara (no en todos los casos) xd

    My mum bought this laptop for its screen size, she didn't care much about the high performance stuff as she's only interested in a bigger screen as she can't focus well on smaller screens.
    The laptop fan and cool design is so stupid, like, where the fan is, air is being sucked in and it passes through to the heat sinks and does a turn to exit the laptop. It should be the other way around. On high performance mode the fan is always ramping up. This laptop is quite large and can easily benefit using dual fans using moderate power, instead of a singular fan working at high power to cool the laptop down. My mum doesn't complain as she just needed a new laptop for her work. But this cost over 1500 bucks.
    I'm glad that I was able to buy a smaller laptop for the same price, a different Asus laptop from a similar series, with more ram and a better CPU and gpu, along with a much better cooling system, and not to forget, backlit keys! This laptop acts like a budget laptop that it should've cost 500 bucks at least.

    These are good little machines, after I add 8GB RAM or so she'll scream. Also people talking about the cooling apparently have no idea this is a 25W/7nm CPU.

    Completely garbage heatsink design. I have this laptop and it thermal throttles easily when gaming. Coincidentally, the intel variants (X512) of this have a proper heatsink and fan. I wouldn't surprised if this was the work of intel. They've gotten in trouble many times, even recently, for bribing makers to either not use amd or make their amd offerings worse.
