Excited About My New ASUS Setup – Looking for Tips!

Hi everyone

I just upgraded to an ASUS gaming setup and I’m loving it so far! I want to make sure I get the most out of it.

I have a few questions:

  • Any recommended fan curves or performance profiles for smooth gameplay without too much noise?

  • Tips for optimizing AAA games like Elden Ring 2, Starfield, or Apex Legends on high refresh rate displays?

  • Suggestions for upgrades or accessories that improve lifespan and performance?

  • Ideas for cable management, RGB, or desk setup to keep things clean and immersive?

I would love to hear your experiences, tips, and tricks. Thanks in advance!

Congrats on the new setup!  For fan curves, Armoury Crate’s “Balanced” mode usually works well for everyday gaming — switch to “Turbo” only for really demanding AAA titles. For games like Elden Ring 2 or Starfield, lowering shadows or post-processing effects slightly can boost FPS without losing visuals.

Upgrades I’d suggest: adding more RAM if possible, a fast NVMe SSD, and a good cooling pad for long sessions. For cable management and aesthetics, simple raceway kits, Velcro ties, and subtle RGB lighting really clean up the desk and enhance immersion. 

Would love to hear what games you play first on that setup!
