🛠️ Mod Post GHelper/Armoury Crate Megathread

25 Upvotes

This post has been made to clear up any questions or inconveniences with both of the software control apps.

The old PSA thread has been archived. Click here to go to it.

You can now summon the new GHelper instalation guide by typing "!ghelper" (without "") in the comment section below.

GHelper is an open source alternative maintained by seerge (u/Beginning_Living4052, also has their own flair) which aims to be a lightweight and bug free alternative to the dumpster fire that is Armoury Crate. Note: We are not forcing you to switch, but it is a good thing to do if you are experiencing issues related to Armoury Crate.

Some terminology before we begin:

  • GH = GHelper

  • AC = Armoury Crate

  • A/C = Alternating Current (aka the charger/wall brick)

  • Open Source = the app's code is available for everyone to view and modify.

  • dGPU = Dedicated GPU (aka Radeon or RTX)

  • iGPU = Integrated GPU (aka CPU graphics)

Starting this point onward, I will update this thread to include Frequently Asked Questions.

It is also a great idea to join our official r/asustuf discord server! Click here to join!.

FAQ

Here's a link to the already existing FAQ on Github, but other questions will be added in this megathread too.

A: Is GHelper safe? Windows Defender said it might be a virus.

B: GHelper is safe, in fact, you can check out the app's code on Github. It is open source. If Windows Defender has suspicions, it's because the app isn't signed. (look up that on google.)

A: How do I set up custom fan curves?

B: tba.

Post image
7 Upvotes

Due to high prices of ram and storage due to AI , resulting in freaking unbelievable laptop prices, I bought a Used Asus Tuf A15(FA507UV)

SPECS:

AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS

RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6

16 GB RAM AND 512 STORAGE

(I now feel 512 will not be sufficient long term)

The laptop was a 2024 model(warranty expired) Purchased for ₹1,20,000

The condition was fine. But after my usage for 5 days, I got the hinge issue(Not at the time after buying)so I gave it for patchwork which cost an additional ₹2000. Cleaned the dust as well.

I bought this one for ₹70000(Location: Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India). Is it worth it for today's market? Will there be any other issues except the hinges?It is working fine till now. Kindly guide me guys. Thank you for your time reading

💻 Purchase Advice Does the ASUS TUF F16 FX607VU-SS53 actually have a 100% sRGB display?

1 Upvotes

I’m considering buying the ASUS TUF Gaming F16 FX607VU-SS53 (Model/Part Number: FX607VU-SS53, UPC: 197105871007).

The listing I’m looking at claims:

16" 1920×1200, 144Hz display

100% sRGB

Intel Core 5 210H

RTX 4050

16GB RAM / 512GB SSD

Model year 2025

I know the FX607VU is a family with different display panels, so I’m specifically asking about the SS53 variant.

Can anyone who owns the exact FX607VU-SS53 confirm whether the display is actually 100% sRGB?

If possible, I’d really appreciate:

Your exact model number/part number

Whether you measured the display with a colorimeter or checked its panel specifications

The panel model/ID if you can find it (e.g. from HWiNFO)

Whether you know the NTSC/sRGB coverage

I’m asking because the seller has some reviews mentioning customers receiving laptops with specifications different from the listing, so I want to verify the display before purchasing.

Thanks!

Need Help! (Hardware/Other) Upgrading ram for ASUS A15 FA566IC- HN008T(FA566IC)

1 Upvotes

For the love of god I am not able to find any old website which contains the spec sheet of this model to understand how much RAM this laptop supports.

I want to upgrade the RAM, and I don’t know what RAM I need to look for.

My main use of this will require gaming. I know this is an old model, but I would like to upgrade this as much as possible.

Please suggest what kind of RAM to buy for it and how much RAM I should go for.

I want something that will last a long time and will be able to play future games. I am thinking about getting it with an RTX 4060. I would probably play Cyberpunk 2077, GTA V, and future AAA games. I'd also like it to be capable of running GTA 6 when it comes out. But mainly for school stuff. Would this be a good choice for something that will last a long time?

Need Help! (Software) Duplicate display suddenly stopped working, while Extend works perfectly — ASUS TUF A15 / RTX 4050

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

I’m having a strange issue with duplicating my second display.

When I connect my second monitor, all the other display modes work normally, including Extend, but Duplicate simply doesn’t work when I select it.

I’m fairly certain this is not a hardware, cable, or monitor issue, because the exact same setup and connections were working normally a few months ago. This makes me think the problem is software-related.

Here’s what I’ve already tried:

  • Performed a Windows Repair Install (in-place repair without deleting my files or applications).
  • Reinstalled the NVIDIA graphics driver using a Custom → Clean Installation.
  • Tried changing/reinstalling the graphics drivers.

Unfortunately, none of these fixed the problem. Extend works normally, but Duplicate still doesn’t.

My laptop is:

  • ASUS TUF Gaming A15 FA507NUR
  • NVIDIA RTX 4050 Laptop GPU
  • Windows 11
  • OS Build : 26200.9168

Has anyone experienced something similar, or know what could specifically prevent Duplicate display mode from working while Extend works normally?
