Small list of problems found on my platform. Beta 7.

Open Magniflex99 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

I have an Asus Rog G532LWS, tenth generation Intel and Nvidia RTX 2000. I state that for using this program I have uninstalled all the previous Asus software, and disabled the few remaining services. In activity management, I no longer have any service that refers to Asus, and every software and driver left in Windows 11 Home is updated to the latest version available. I will list in bullet points all the problems and shortcomings that I have encountered in this version.

-Application theme not working: after setting the dark theme, the light one is automatically re-entered as soon as the application is closed (terminated), moreover, in my opinion, there is no option to set the theme, automatically according to to that of the system.

-The application does not start automatically when Windows starts. despite having selected the appropriate option, to run it at startup, I had to use the windows scheduler.

-If you select the option to start minimized, the app is still shown also in the application tray, even though it cannot be selected.

-No support for other languages (it's not a problem for me, but it would be a feature that would surely enrich the value of this project, and I'd be willing to offer full support for Italian translation).

-The gpu fan, in some cases, stops for no apparent reason. I couldn't find a direct cause for this, but most of the time it happens when I switch from one profile to another (Manual-Performance-Turbo-Silent).

-The Power Tuning of the CPU is applied globally to all profiles, and not as a setting of the current profile that has been decided to modify.

-Nvidia GPU Tuning does not work.

-In "Sysem Fan SPeed", on the main screen, it would be useful to have the temperature of the GPU, instead of the rotation percentage of its fan

-It would be useful and nice, to have in the program settings, a link that can redirect you to the GitHub page of the same, or even better, to its download page, to check the possible availability of new versions.

-In the "Aura RGB" section, there is no setting to turn off the backlight, and to create a custom backlight. in addition to the fact that it is not possible to adjust the intensity of the backlight.

-When the light theme is active, the scheme on the main screen, which shows how the currently selected profile affects the user experience, is almost completely invisible. Useless in that condition.

-The program, when the PC screen is deactivated (NO SUSPENSION-NO HIBERNATION ONLY DISPLAY STANDBY), no longer has control over the rotation of the fans, which decreases a lot. Once the screen is reactivated, the fans stop and then restart normally, on the profile set in the program.

-It would be useful to indicate the number and type of disks installed in the system, and their respective capacity in %, as well as for the RAM memory.

These are so far, all the critical points that I have been able to identify. The same problems were also present in Beta 6. I have not put the points listed above in order of importance, and I hope I am not being inappropriate, for having also inserted some shortcomings, since being still a project in Beta, I hope it can still improve a lot. There would be many things to include, such as the presence of a MUX Switch, add options to create key combinations to call the program, or activate a certain profile (well, like in Armory Crate), etc. I conclude by congratulating Giacomo CJ60, for the great effort, because this is exactly what every owner of a ROG Notebook would need, and I will not fail to actively support this project, if it continues to improve over time. time.
