[SCAM ALERT] ASUS Refuses Replacement after 3rd Motherboard Failure on ₹2.5 Lakh ROG Strix. Staff says "Do whatever you can."

I went through the same process and honestly at this point I gave up. I have an ASUS Zephyrus G16. It got bricked three times under initial six months. Each time it went to warranty and they replaced the motherboard. It’s “fixed” now and I’m typing this on the same Zephyrus, but it still has stupid

GNOME on CachyOS, am I alone?

I'm a new user to Linux, having installed CachyOS on my 2025 Asus Zephyrus G16 as its sole operating system in November 2026. I use Gnome. Having used both Mac and Windows about 50/50 over the previous 35 years (all the way back to Windows 3.1 and the very first edition of Mac OS X on a translucent

Looking for a Gaming Laptop with the best possible battery life

There are some that you can move into different modes to get longer battery life but it would hinder performance and refresh rate, depending what you’re doing. Using economic and power saving settings on the ASUS G16 Zephyrus get somewhere between 7-8 hours of battery life. https://www.bestbuy.com/p

Laptop recommendations

If you don't need it for portability, might a smaller format desktop be a good option? As in a mini-ATX or even micro ATX formfactor.

Book 6 Pro. Can't surf the web.

fair enough. My Book3 pro 360 and Book 6 Ultra are working fine, so maybe it's that device. I was very close to buying the Asus Zephyrus G16 instead and it was my top contender alternate. Check that one out. Light, thin, very powerful, better GPU. I just wanted the ecosystem bonuses.

Razer Blade OR Zephyrus ?

I have only owned a Zephyrus G16, never a Razer Blade, so I'm chiming in just to vouch for the build quality of the ASUS. It's rock solid, had it for a year already and I use it in the office as well as literally on my knee on dirty job sites and it's held up perfectly for a little over a year now.
