  • Here's how to improve performance on your Asus Strix G17 by up to 15% in COD: Warzone! I was not expecting this to improve performance as much as this did! I hope everyone finds this video helpful and sees improved FPS like I did as well. Shout out to Scott Reams who emailed me about this and suggested I test 32 GB ram!

    Update 6/11/2021: I believe Jarrod'sTech narrowed down the issue surrounding the ram in some of these laptops. It comes down to improved secondary timings on with the RAM. It does not have anything to do with the size of the RAM module, and I no longer believe it is single rank vs dual rank (though that can help in some cases, but I don't think that was the issue in this instance). There was a big difference in performance between the RAM modules I tested in this video, but I couldn't truly identify the issue, even after asking Asus directly about it, which didn't know about this issue. So kudos to Jarrod for figuring why some of the laptops are underperforming in certain games. One thing to really keep in mind about this issue is that it mainly in CPU bound titles. The stock ram plays these games smoothly, but it is certainly possible to get more performance out of the laptops with RAM with better timings. So I'm still glad I made this video, as it still helped bring light to the issue and help provide a solution for improved performance. Here's Jarrod's video talking about the Lenovo 5 Pro, which I believe has a problem similar to the RAM in this video: ruclips.net/video/zUbryj294Cs/видео.html

      @GizmoSlipTech How were you able to get such good FPS with the 16gb stick? I have the Zephyrus G15 with the 3070, but it stutters/lags while playing new games such as COD Cold War since it uses up all 16gb of ram. Would it be better to return it, and get the Scar 15 instead, or just upgrade the ram?

    Awesome video, very informative. Aside from the RAM, do you think replacing the factory NVME drive would make much of a difference in gaming? I'm thinking of using the stock 1TB HD as storage and getting a faster NVME, either a 500GB or 1TB for the O/S. If the performance would be only negligible, then maybe leaving the system as is and just getting an additional NVME drive for storage might be the best choice? What do you think?

      ​@@inspiringminds7284 Hey bud if you get notified of this comment can you PLEASE answer, thanks! I was wondering if you think replacing my ram with something better and doubling the amount would help MY laptop?
      I have a STRIX G15 G513QM - It has the RYZEN 9 5900hx and RTX 3060 GPU - from the factory it comes with 16gb (2x8gb Most likely cheap trash etc) I was thinking about getting 16gb x 2 for a total of 32gb (or POSSIBLE 2 x 32gb for a total of 64. But that is a bit pricey). Which would (at least) double the amount, and I was going to get as high of ram as I could afford. Dual Rank if possible (factory is single rank)
      Do you think I would notice anything?

    For anyone on here wondering or thinking of trying this yourself, the CL18 sticks don't work at CL18 on this laptop. I bought the 32GB 3200CL18 kit hoping to cute latencies further and it seems the latency configuration is fixed in the bios, not running an actual XMP/DOCP setting. So, save yourself the money and just get the CL22 kit.

    I would like to add some small correction to the explanation how to check if your ram is single or dual rank. It seems that a ram stick can have memory chips on both sides and still be single rank . For example, in Gigabyte G5 unboxing video that Gizmo has done ruclips.net/video/z3LI2PyqWCo/видео.html, the stick has memory chips on both sides, but on the label you can read 1Rx8 which indicates that it is single rank(1R-single rank, x8-to how many bits each memory chip connects). 8 chips on the stick x 8 bits = 64bit - this calculation also indicates that the stick is single rank, if you get >=128 then it's probably dual rank. You can also figure it out by running CPU-Z. More info about ranks: www.vikingtechnology.com/wp-content/uploads/AN033_Module_Rank_Whitepaper.pdf, www.minitool.com/news/single-rank-vs-dual-rank.html, ruclips.net/video/tySToFdLV2g/видео.html

      Upgrading from Single Channel to Dual channel would improve things. But if you have 16 GB of RAM, I'd guess you are already in dual channel with 2x8GB sticks. I don't know if the i7-7700HQ is sensitive to single rank vs dual rank. That is an older CPU/GPU, so I wouldn't expect it to perform as well as these newer machine in any case.
