    In the past couple weeks, while gaming, my computer has suddenly powered off with no warning. When this occurs, strangely, the PC's internal RGB remains on, while everything else powers off. My fans stop spinning, monitors stop receiving signals, and power button doesn’t do anything until I...

    So my pc stopped working some days ago, pressing power button or sorting the board pins do nothing now, I've faced this same problem last year as well, where it will work normally at the computer shop but wouldn't start at home.

    Solved Overheating and power usuage issues

    Seemingly very suddenly I've started having heating issues with my laptop (specs below). This is the first heating issue I've had and it's seemingly come out of nowhere. It's worth stating now that I have a fairly badly bloated battery, but as you'll see if you read on, I don't believe it is the...

    RGB Fan-Hub connections dodgy/not working - any help?

    So a while back all the RGB fans in on my computer simply switched off after a strange restart (I don't know how to explain it but the computer restart was just abnormal). I looked at the fan-hub controller to see if the issue was perhaps a battery failure but the fans still respond when I press...

    Solved Asus laptop won't turn unless I plug in the power chord.

    I bought an Asus Zephyrus GX701GWR about a year ago, and its been wonderful until 3 days ago, when I unplugged it (while the battery showed as 100% charger) and the laptop just went dead. I tried to power it back on but I could not, unless I connected it to the AC adapter. Thing is, I just used...
