Post by: Redaktion on November 28, 2025, 13:20:03
In our previous articles on the A18, we mainly highlighted the slim, quiet, and efficient 18-inch gaming laptop, which could also appeal to creators. But the reality also includes some annoying teething issues we observed during testing.

Pro tip, uninstall all Asus software or better yet, install Windows fresh, then run ghelper. This applies to all Asus laptops. I have this laptop, and after adding 32 gigs of RAM, it's an absolute budget beast. It runs exceptionally cool at full tilt. Oddly, it isn't possible to undervolt the cpu, but it runs so efficiently and cool, there really isn't the need.

I had similar issues with Flow X16 2023 including laptop not waking from sleep, random bluescreens etc. Even when I updated everything from Asus website, there were some faulty drivers and my issues got fixed after updating all with DriverEasy. Uninstalling armory crate and disabling services while using Ghelper fixed only some issues. Hope this helps.
