========================
Detailed description:Around October 17-19, my laptop(BIOS 308, the latest offered by MyASUS) performance suddenly decreased. For example, playing videos games my FPS would be 60 normally, but now it is 9-30. Overall, there are stuttering and lagging when playing video games. My internet is working fine. Streaming videos, doing multiple tasks, or downloading, there are noticeable lag. MyASUS(V2.2.44.0) checkup shows there may be an issue with the fan. I've went to Nvidia Control Panel and set it to High-Performance Nvidia Processor, Power Option and set to High Performance and still nothing. Using Turbo mode, the fans are somewhat quiet and CPU/GPU fan kicks up to 2800-2900 RPM. Normally, using Turbo mode, the laptop emits a very loud noise and CPU/GPU fan kicks well over 5000-5500 RMP. So something is wrong here. I've also installed ASUS System Control Interface V2( V2.2.30.0) and reinstall MyASUS and the problem still persist. I've also resetted my laptop twice and it fixed nothing. I've checked Task Manager and Armoury Crate(V3.1.6.0), CPU/GPU temperatures seems fine. I'm not tech savy and not sure what is going on. Could it be CPU/GPU fan? Or motherboard? If you need more information to help a guy out, please ask.
Edit: I also should mention when I do Full Scan on Window Virus Security, it usually take 15-20 minutes and utilization of CPU is 98-99%. Now, it takes slighty longer and utilization of CPU is around 33%. I don't know if that info will help. I've also never underclocked or overlocked my CPU because I don't know how to do that.
Edit 2: I've emailed ASUS about the issue. It will take 48 hours for them to get back. I will update as soon as ASUS respond.
Thank you

I'm purchased my ASUS TUF FX 505 GT on August and it was working fine till now. Now I'm facing similar issues as most of the users mentioned here

  1. Laptop becomes very lagging every time I return from sleep mode. Even lagging when moving opened panes across the screen.
  2. RGB Backlit won't turn on itself when powering the laptop. I have to manually turn it on using Asus Armory crate or Aura app. Using FN+Key up will show it's increasing/decreasing the brightness but won't do a thing
  3. There is an issue with fans. Seems like Turbo mode is not working. Also when the laptop is lagging, fans won't push up and take control like before. CPU usage won't go to high values.
  4. I wrote a complaint using MyAsus app and waiting for a reply from them

Hello, I have the same model and I can attest that I also experienced what you mentioned. I wrote an email to them and they seem to have no idea about the issue so they request me to send screenshots of the issues like screenshots of resource monitor showing a capped maximum frequency or a screenshot of malfunctioning armory crate like mentioned about the fans and keyboard lights. However, I have already formatted my laptop and disabled their software. It would be a major inconvenience for me to reinstall their software just to send them the screenshots they needed.

I was playing gta 5 with 50-60 fps and suddenly the fps drops from 50 to 9 then the nighmare begins my screen was sluttering even the normal screen was sluttering on fx505gt i complaint this to asus and i hope they will give us the solution we want

My laptop (TUF505) CPU speed drops to 800mhz when playing games that is after upgrading the Bios to 308. After a lot of installation and resetting of windows the only solution that worked for me is to downgrade the Bios version to 305.

Solution for FX 505 GT lag and performance drop issues.

BIOS downgrading won't fix this problem as it auto updates on every reboot.

Do this thing instead ,

Go to windows search and type -msconfig.

Click enter and go to services and check- hide all microsoft services.

Then disable the following services shown in the pic below and restart the laptop.

Untick these services and click apply and ok.

(Also disable extend battery life in gaming from intel grahics panel)

NOTE:

Armoury crate and My asus wont work after following the above mentioned procedure.

To revert back you just need to enable all those services and restart the laptop.

Till asus fixes this issue this solution works.

Okay this one is really work like a charm. Thank you ver much.

And also for a bit information. I found out that ASUS System Control Interface V2 is one of the source problem. They have new update V2.2.31.0 20/10/26 but never try it.
