Thermal paste condition and BIOS fan control settings (Correct answer)
The Wi-Fi card
The display inverter
The SSD health status

Correct answer: Thermal paste condition and BIOS fan control settings

A constantly maxed fan usually indicates a thermal sensor reading high temperatures, often caused by dried thermal paste or incorrect BIOS fan curve settings.

Question 6: When diagnosing an ASUS laptop with random shutdowns, which test should be performed after confirming thermal conditions are normal?

Update the webcam firmware
Reinstall the touchpad driver
Run a battery load test and check power delivery components (Correct answer)

Question 10: What is the best way to test if a newly installed RAM module is functioning correctly?

Run a memory diagnostic tool (Correct answer)
Press random keyboard keys
Reinstall the operating system
Check if the laptop powers on

Correct answer: Run a memory diagnostic tool

A memory diagnostic tool, such as Windows Memory Diagnostic or MemTest86, specifically tests the RAM modules for errors and stability. This is the most reliable way to confirm that a newly installed RAM module is functioning correctly, identifying any potential issues that could lead to system instability or crashes. Simply powering on isn't enough to confirm full functionality.

Question 11: A customer wants to use their ASUS ROG laptop in a tournament where only one display output is allowed. Which ASUS feature should be disabled to use only the dedicated GPU output directly?

Optimus / iGPU mode (use MUX Switch set to dGPU mode) (Correct answer)
AI Noise Canceling
Armoury Crate overlay
Aura Sync

Correct answer: Optimus / iGPU mode (use MUX Switch set to dGPU mode)

Setting the MUX Switch to dGPU-only mode bypasses Optimus/integrated graphics, routing the display directly through the dedicated GPU for maximum performance and no iGPU overhead.

Question 12: In ASUS service documentation, what does 'NFF' mean?

Not Factory Formatted
