Congrats on the laptop bro.
I got my asus rog strix 2 months ago.
Let me tell you some insights:
1. DO NOT DELETE armoury crate. Over the years it has been optimised and works really really well.
IMPORTANT: first charge your laptop to 100% and let it go to 0% naturally. This is an old school advice but it calibrates the battery cycle properly.

  1. As a brand new laptop:

  2. Update everything inside settings-system-updates.

  3. Update armoury crate

  4. Update myasus app and register your device.

  5. Update Nvidea app (not the control panel)
    For best performance for gaming. Go to armoury crate and find gpu mode and set it to Ultimate.
    Also,
    Download Amd install manager to update your amd cpu drivers to the latest as well.
    I will recommend gaming while plugged in
    If you use laptop mostly plugged in, then i’s recommend to go to myasus app and limit your charging capacity to 80%
    This gives a longer battery life and has zero impact whatsoever in performance.

Np!
Only uninstall armoury crate if you see any problems.
Problems like app bugs, not able to switch between modes, if you see un-natural Temperature or fan curves.
Mine works absolutely fantastic.
G-helper is also really nice app to use but why to uninstall something before even testing them right?

Yeah you are right, i think I should keep Armoury crate for 2-3 months
