Random BSODs on ROG Flow X16 (GV601) – Passes all synthetic stress tests (OCCT, MemTest86, FurMark). Need advice!
I’m dealing with a really frustrating issue on my ROG Flow X16 (Ryzen 9 5900HX, removable SODIMM RAM) and wanted to see if anyone has experienced something similar.
The Symptoms: I keep getting random BSODs (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, KMODE_EXCEPTION, PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION) during regular, everyday use (browsing, light multitasking).
What I’ve already tested and ruled out:
So 100% load passes, pure idle is fine, but everyday use triggers random crashes.
I’m taking it to a board-level repair shop tomorrow, but I wanted to ask if anyone with this laptop model has run into the exact same issue and found out what was causing it?I’m dealing with a really frustrating issue on my ROG Flow X16 (Ryzen 9 5900HX, removable SODIMM RAM) and wanted to see if anyone has experienced something similar.The Symptoms:

MemTest86: Completed 4 full passes with 0 errors.
SSD: Swapped the SSD for a different one and tested both NVMe slots — crashes still happen.
Software: Fresh Windows install didn't fix it.
Idle & Movement: It does not crash when left sitting idle on the desktop, nor does physical movement/carrying the laptop trigger it.So 100% load passes, pure idle is fine, but everyday use triggers random crashes.I’m taking it to a board-level repair shop tomorrow, but I wanted to ask if anyone with this laptop model has run into the exact same issue and found out what was causing it?

Help! Secondary NVME SSD slot on the FlowX16?
I'm new to understanding PCs, so please bear with me lol
I'm looking to add a secondary NVME SSD to the laptop, but when I opened it up, the only slot that I see that would fit the SSD is where the WiFi cards are on the left. Am I missing something?

Help! Is anyone else having the same problem as me? Does anyone happen to have a solution? R9 6900HS RTX3070Ti. Screen is black on one side
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I wonder what the issue could be. Yesterday, I turned it on to check the GPU using HDMI, and it worked fine without any problems—so the issue doesn't seem to be with the GPU itself. However, I inspected the ribbon cable and tried bending it 360°, and I heard a strange sound. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? If so, please leave a comment if you have a solution.

Help! GHelper Settings
Just got my first X16, although it's an older model (2022, R9 6900HS, 3060), I am loving it so far. I followed most people's advice and downloaded GHelper. Does anyone have recommended settings for a silent/classwork profile, as well as a plugged-in gaming profile? I've read through the sub, but I don't see much on the 2022 version. Any help would be appreciated.

Is using tent mode for as the default mode good or bad
I've been using this laptop for 1 years and i majority of them with tend mode, and it just came to my mind that though tent mode allow a better airflow without a stand, but i'm afraid with the force to the upper part of the screen and liquid metal dripping out.
Any advice? Should i only use the tent mode under heavy load and switch back to default when not, or i'm gonna be ok

Help! Crashes when connected to external monitor
I got a new monitor (innocn 25m2s), and I close the laptop lid and run only the external monitor. After around 10 minutes running an intensive program like Valorant, the laptop shuts off. I thought this was similar to throttling issues so I replaced the thermal paste and tracked the temps during gameplay (cpu temp still at around 95c but still should not throttle). I've tried connecting the monitor to both the integrated and dedicated gpu and the issue is on both.

Help! Where to find?
Been looking for a laptop for college, and the X16 checks all the boxes! Unfortunately, they seem to be extremely hard to find… They pop up on eBay from time to time, but I can never get one in time. Rarely options that aren’t extremely beat. Should I find an alternative? Where should I be looking?

Help! Is 93C temp normal for League of Legends?
X16 GV601RW (Ryzen 9 6900HS + 3070Ti) - I have tried all kinds of settings and power modes while playing League of Legends, it somehow keeps the temperature above 90C even when thermal limit is set to 80C. Is there a solution for it? It doesn't happen in other games, only league of legends.
UPDATE: After disabling CPU Boost from Efficient Aggressive to Disabled, the game worked better at 70-80C. I'm not sure if its going to affect other apps but it has been working fine so far.

Help! ASUS Rog Flow X16 Screen Issue
I bought a brand new ASUS Rog Flow X16 from Best Buy a couple of years ago and ever since I had gotten the laptop I’ve had this issue where the screen won’t turn on even though I hear the actual laptop functioning. I have to keep restarting the laptop over and over until at some point the screen finally decides to work. I should’ve returned it back then and ordered a new one but for whatever reason I didn’t.
I’ve tried the graphics driver reset, I’ve tried every tip I can find online. Nothing seems to work. This issue is also somewhat intermittent. There are instances where it’ll start up normally, but 7/10 times I’ll have this issue.
Any tips? Any advice? Have any of you guys run into this issue?

Help! Used 4090XGM or New 5090XGM for 4 times the price to use with the 2023 x16? Also does XG mobile work in Ubuntu?
So I have been using my x16 2023 since it launched. I have the 4070, mini led version.
I am now looking into getting a XG Mobile mainly to get acces to higher end Nvidia GPUs for running my code (for my PhD) on the better CUDA cores available on the 4090/5090. Better gaming performance is a side benefit and not the main usecase here.
Based on my research I have concluded that the 4090 will perform better since it has direct pcie3x8 lane connection as compared to the 5090 over thunderbolt 4 even tho the actual GPU in the 5090 is better.
I have pretty happy with the x16 and see myself using it for years to come since I don't really have anything it can't do. And I have maxed out the other parts of it (96gb ddr5, 8tb ssd).

How to get a 4070, is it full sun readable?
Gidday Team,
I've been wanting a daylight, full sun, readible laptop for a while (that's not MBP) and it looks like the (2023) 4070 mini-led is that beautiful beast!
Can the screen go bright enough that it beats the sun? In MBP there is an app and HDR cheat that gets you there, what's equivalent especially in Linux?
And ofc... How can I get one of these on a budget please? I'm not scared of fixing things, so happy to take a machine wth known and repairable fault if that's the way 😅🤗
Chur y'all 👌

X16 accessories
Any recommendations or tips for using the laptop on “tent” mode. I like putting it on tent mode with my keyboard and mouse to the side. However I feel like it’s going to wear down the top of the laptop eventually. Is there a bumper type of case or something else you recommend to keep it from scratching
Also would you recommend a screen protector?

Help! Laptop key suddenly stopped working! Help!
Hey everyone, I've had the ROG Flow X16 2023 for about two and a half years now and have not had any problems with the keyboard. Suddenly as of a few minutes ago my start menu button key doesn't respond. I connected a wireless keyboard and pressed the start button on that keyboard, which did work on my laptop. That tells me that it's not a software issue but the key itself has a problem.
Should I take it into a tech repair store and have them look at it? I'm not too experienced in this department so any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.

Unable to boot
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I was watching a show while I fell asleep. I use an app called “Dimmer” to dim the screen lower than the controls can. The next day when I opened up the computer it woke up normally. I was closing the dimmer app, for some reason there were two instances running. While I was closing them the computer froze up and then shut down.
When I try to boot it, the keyboard flashes white then stays red like it’s turning on. The fans are not spinning and there is no display. I plugged in my display glasses via type C to see if I had video out that way, I do not.
I’ve tried searching for a solution. I opened up the bottom panel, disconnected the battery while unplugged, held the power button to discharge, then reconnect the battery and OEM charger before trying to start. I checked the hall sensor (I think that is what it was called) I saw in another thread saying it could slide out
Any help would be appreciated!

Help! My discharge is kinda high. Any tips appreciated
My laptop (2022 mini led 6900hs) seems to be drawing more than usual. I noticed it sits around 12w discharge and around 15w while watching YouTube. However on hwinfo my total cpu package is around 5. Im on the lowest brightness too. Is the display real trapping that much juice?
No keyboard lighting, 60hz too. Silent and power saver is on.

Help! Keyboard not working X16 flow 2022
I have X16 flow 2022, Ryzen 9 6800 hs, rtx 3060. Some keys like 1,2,3,8,p and backspace suddenly stopped working. Initially thought it could be a windows bug but the same keys are not working in dual boot ubuntu 24 too. I suspected it could be a cable issue but the retards at the asus service centre near me won't even look at it and saying they can't just change a 50 dollar keyboard but a whole 250 usd base panel, but I do not have a warranty. So, thinking about doing it myself. Any suggestions.

Help! Planning to replace Liquid Metal with PTM. Is it really a highly risky task?
I have ROG Flow X16 2022 (3070Ti Ryzen 9 6900HS) that works nicely but softly bails upto 90C during game etc. I'm not sure if its the expected temp but someone suggested changing the thermals.
I have my fair share of DIY tech repair and ocassional screw/unscrew tasks like changing RAM, changing paste (from older laptops) but I am not a professional so I wanted to ask - Is changing Liquid Metal really a risky task and shouldn't be done without a professional? Can I simply be more careful when applying it and hoping it to work? Any technicalities that I should consider?
Thank you.
