tuf f15, its atrocious that TUF/ASUS doesnt allow to adjust the fan curves and gives us the ******tiest fan curve in existance. No wonder Asus is loosing the prestige that used to be associated with the brand. I remember when someone bought Asus, it meant quality, now it's just cheap all around.

In all honesty, as much as I used to love the ASUS machines and quality you used to get, their QC and services are slipping a fair amount. So much so My next machine likely will not be an ASUS of any kind unless I win a competition. Some ASUS machines have slightly better out of box performance than others but others offer more customisation. MSI's flagships and even the lesser models have an advanced BIOS so you can tweak the best performance and thermals out of the laptops and tune the RAM too.
I don't know if they still have it but I know some of the Legion 7 models had similar BIOS options when you unlocked them. as well as better thermals. I saw the new A15/16s that Jarrod reviewed throttled most of the time because cooling was inadequate. Pretty sure he said they turned down the speed of max fans to appease muppets who want silent machines. Funny, those same muppets will cry about it being too hot and throttling too.
