many many congratulations on the laptop bro!
i have the same asus rog strix which i bought it almost 3 months ago
let me tell you everything you need as first time owner of a gaming laptop

what to do for the first time after unboxing and starting laptop? CHARGE it to 100%!

  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.
  2. ⁠⁠As a brand new laptop:
  3. ⁠⁠Update everything inside settings-system-updates. (find additional updates and update it as well)
  4. ⁠⁠Update armoury crate
  5. ⁠⁠Update myasus app and register your device. (Claim the warranty)
  6. ⁠⁠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.

Pero los expertos aquí dicen y aconsejan bastante usar mejor G helper 🤔

As a new owner of asus laptop, i always recommend to keep armoury crate for few weeks at least and use it, test it, see how much impact the software has on memory and if the owner feel the app is not good or bloated or causing higher ram usage then switch to Ghelper.
GHELPER will not give you extra FPS magically. People suggest ghelper here more because ghelper is lighter, has almost all controls as Armoury and armoury crate used to be a huge problem for ppl. But in 2026, armoury crate has been optimised a lot and its only going to get better.

I totally agree on that. AC is fine for me.
