Troubleshooting

Laptop feels slow while gaming on battery

Performance is throttled on battery to preserve longevity. Always connect to the provided 280W AC adapter for full GPU and CPU power.

Wi-Fi connection drops or is unstable

Ensure your router supports Wi-Fi 6E or 5GHz bands, as 2.4GHz may experience interference in crowded environments.

RGB keyboard lighting isn't responding

Open the pre-installed Armoury Crate software to check for firmware updates and ensure the lighting profile is active.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, connect the included 280W power adapter to ensure full performance, as battery mode may throttle peak speeds. During initial Windows 11 setup, ensure you connect to a 6GHz Wi-Fi 6E network if available to utilize the full speed of the onboard wireless card. For maintenance, keep the rear exhaust vents free of obstructions to allow the Dual Arc Flow Fans to dissipate heat efficiently. If you choose to upgrade the RAM or SSD, ensure you use a non-conductive pry tool to open the chassis and always ground yourself to prevent static discharge. Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the aluminium and plastic surfaces to prevent oil buildup.
