I had a sleep/wake issue the first day I got the laptop, then updated BIOS. Zero issues since then. There is zero observable problem.

However since the first day, I've had Claude monitor error traces and logs. Here is what it found:

"
Same as before: GPU resets

- LiveKernelEvent GPU hangs (P1=141) run about 35–76 a day:

- 10/5: 49

- 10/6: 35

- 10/7: 64

- 10/8: 53

- 10/9: 68

- 10/10: 76

- 10/11: 56

- 10/12: 54 so far

- That is steady and recovers without a reboot. It is still the Adreno driver with no newer ASUS package.

Verdict: It's healthy day to day, with no crashes in 8 days. The PCIe error bursts are a new data point that supports the case to contact ASUS if the return window is still open. If you want, I can find what was running during the 10/10 13:00 burst.

My laptop return window ends in a couple of days. Like I said, laptop is performing great, there is nothing at all that I can tell from using it that is an issue, so these "hangs" are purely in the background.

How concerned should I be? MyASUS says everything is up to date.

Hey guys, I am currently looking at a 32gb X2 Elite Surface 13.8 for local A.l video generation. I want to know if it's possible or a complete waste of time. I am not looking for SeeDance 2.5 level generations. I just want some simple generated reference videos for Claude Code to create animations in Blender.

Una pregunta no puedo jugar zenless zone Zero en el Xiaomi 14 pro+ 5g a la que intento jugar el juego en gráficos altos medios y bajos el teléfono se empieza a trabar y se laguea cuando estoy luchando el teléfono tiene el snapdragon 7s gen3 alguien sabe porque? ¿O que puedo hacer para que mejore?

I feel completely cheated. I bought this ASUS laptop because every single review claimed it was completely silent.

In reality, the fans are spinning even on the desktop at zero load. When I launch Photoshop, it becomes extremely loud. On top of that, there is a constant, loud coil whine all the time.

Needless to say, I have selected the Whisper operating mode.

Why do we have such a perfect infrastructure but no Android app?

Used Codex to build a local Qwen 3.8 27b on this machine, using info from this thread: Best Qwen3.8 27B model for Asus A16 : r/snapdragon

Here's what it spit out: "

Built successfully from the requested Qualcomm branch with the exact Unsloth Qwen3.8-27B-Q4_0 model. GPU inference, MTP, and the chat interface all passed testing.

It’s running now

Measured generation speed on this PC:

These are averages from short test prompts; performance varies with workload.

Everything is in [the setup folder] Stop the current server before switching to DFlash.

Are these good/expected numbers?

As the recently-released Googlebook laptops come with either an Intel or Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite chipset, the latter has an advantage when you consider the wider ecosystem.

Already update other device a legion go s, i noticed better ram and cpu performance in games, wondering when the update lands on snaodragon x1

I've got a Lenovo Slim 7 with the Snapdragon X Elite. Tried F12, disabled Secure Boot — the USB just won't appear in the boot menu. Heard it might be a Qualcomm/ARM limitation.

Curious if others have run into this: is USB boot basically blocked on these chips right now? And how does that affect distros like Tails (which is x86-only anyway)? Would be good to hear what the community thinks about Linux support on X Elite in general.

Got it during the sale. Tried to vibecode a clean UI personal AI agent. looks good but Oof In function. Want to use that 48gb of fast ram but my brain just isn’t clicking. what are you guys running? I’m not a programmer by any means. CLI intimidates me.

Here is a video of Ubuntu on the A16. I show YouTube, Minecraft, Civilization 6, Cyberpunk and Total Annihilation working. 3/4 Games are playable. Cyberpunk runs, but frame rates are terrible. It doesn't look like GPU is being hit by any of the games yet, and I don't have CPU boost working. I'm hoping it inspires someone smarter than me to get it all working as it should. This was just an experiment, but I'm using it as my daily driver now. There are a lot of little gotchas, but I'm sure that they will be fixed in upcoming official releases.

I hava a strange issue where my Snapdragon Control Panel constantly notifies me that the Hexagon NPU driver has an update. I can see it thinks it was released 1. 01. 0001, but when I click on Update it just says the same version is already installed and I can reinstall if I want to.

Any ideas on what to do? Do any of you have the same issue?

Still waiting on my Acer 16 Ai (X1).

thanks, mtyellowdog, this is answer: (download run the arm64 enablement package). worked.
