MyASUS – Device Settings
According to the users' scenarios, MyASUS separates functions into different groups in Device Settings page.
General
Exclusives
These groups help you quickly find the items to customize your device settings depending on various using scenarios.
You can click to go to [Device Settings] in MyASUS.
* Note: The features supported in [Device Settings] will vary by model. The following options may not be supported/available in every model.
(Gaming Notebook only support some of the features below. )
Battery Care Mode (Battery Health Charging)
Overcharging a laptop may degrade the battery, resulting in a shorter lifespan, or even swelling due to oxidation.
You can choose to turn on Battery Care Mode, so that the battery can be charged to 80% to improve its lifespan.
When Battery Care Mode is enabled, this mechanism will smartly adjust the recharge trigger point to protect the battery when AC power is connected all the time.
If you need to recharge to 80% immediately, please unplug and plug AC power to fulfill this demand.
If there is a need for using it on-the-go, you can switch on Instant Full-Charge Mode for a one-time full (100%) charge. The system will turn back to the limit charging state after 24 hours.
With the CPU models before Intel Alderlake or AMD Rembrandt, you could choose to limit the charges to 60%, 80%, or 100% to prolong battery lifespan and reduce the chance of damage from battery swelling.
According to how the notebook is being used, you can choose : Full capacity mode, Balanced mode, and Maximum Lifespan mode
*If you experience the problem which is the battery stop being charged after the battery level is charged to 60% or 80%, please check if you set up charging mode in Battery Health Charging.
(Balance Mode: The battery can be charged up to 80%, Maximum lifespan mode: The battery only allows being charged up to 60%)
Full capacity mode : When you use the laptop regularly, you can set the standard profile to allow for a full 100% charge.
Balanced mode: When using the laptop in meetings, you can use Balanced mode to allow charging up to 80%.
Maximum Lifespan mode: When you always plug-in your charger, you can set the Maximum Lifespan mode to allow charging up to 60% to extend batteries life cycle.
Fan Profile *The features supported will vary by model.
Fan profile is the setting that allows users to customize fan speed for different workloads on selected models with an ultra-slim chassis.
There are three modes to choose from. With this feature selected, you can have a quiet operating environment through a balance between temperature and performance
Standard mode -- Dynamically selects the best fan speed for everyday tasks
Whisper mode -- Dynamically minimizes fan speed for the quietest operation
Performance mode -- Dynamically maximizes cooling performance for demanding tasks
*The modes in Fan Profile may vary by model.
*If your laptop supports AIPT, you will see AIPT in Device Settings instead of Fan Profile.
ASUS Intelligent Performance Technology (AIPT) is the solution that allows users to have maximized CPU performance at 28W TDP for heavy workloads on selected models with a chassis providing more room for thermals.
Performance Mode: Maximizes performance and thermal for heavy workloads (This let you play a game or use Premiere Pro more smoothly)
Balanced Mode: Intelligently optimizes performance, thermal, and power parameters for everyday tasks
Whisper Mode: Cool and quiet power-saving operation (To get all day long battery life, please choose this mode)
For more introduction about AIPT, please refer to here.
*For the 2024 new models, Full-speed mode will be supported to provide the ultimate performance.(It is supported starting with models with Intel MTL or AMD HawkPoint/StrixPoint platform. You can go to ASUS website to check the CPU platform of your device.)
MUX Switch *The features supported will vary by model.
MUX switch microchip allows the dedicated GPU to bypass the CPU and push its frames directly to the display, reducing latency and boosting framerates.
When battery life is crucial, your machine will act accordingly. But in a competitive game where every millisecond counts, you can enable a direct GPU mode in MyASUS to get the best gaming performance possible.
MSHybrid: The MSHybrid mode dynamically switches between the discrete and integrated graphics for a significantly longer battery life.
Discrete GPU: The Discrete GPU mode offers an optimized experience on gaming and other intensive tasks with the lowest button-to-pixel latency possible. This is the best option when the system is on AC power.
*Notice:
1. The mode can't be adjusted or reset to default if you remove MyASUS.
2. Please close Bitlocker before setting this control.
*For the 2024 new models, GPU Mode will be supported to fulfill different using scenarios.
Hibernate Helper *The features supported will vary by model.
To avoid system abnormalities that may cause the device to press the power button, close the lid, or idle in battery mode, and not properly enter the modern standby mode, resulting in power consumption and system heating.
Notice:
1. Support need: MyASUS 3.1.22.0 + ASUS System Control Interface 3.1.16.0(or above)
2. It is default on.
Memory Allocated to GPU *The features supported will vary by model.
Not enough GPU may lead to lag on graphic intensive tasks such as playing games. Gamers can dynamically assign the system memory to the GPU that suits their needs.
Notice:
1. Support need: MyASUS 4.0.3.0 + ASUS System Control Interface 3.1.23.0(or above)
2. Default memory will be set to Auto.
AI Noise-Canceling Microphone *It is supported starting models with Intel Tiger Lake / AMD Lucienne platform. You can go to ASUS website to check the CPU platform of your device.(For Comet Lake platform, only support X409FAC/X509FAC/UX535LH/UX535LI)
AI Noise-Canceling Microphone feature allows users to filter out ambient noise and normalize all individual voices from different positions for optimum group conference-call quality.
Single-Presenter mode: AI noise canceling that filters ambient noise and other voices. This mode allows only the voice of the person in front of the PC to be heard clearly.
Multi-Presenter mode: AI noise canceling that filters ambient noise whilst identifying multiple voices from varying directions and distances and normalizes voices by adjusting all voices to the same volume level.
*The quality of AI Noise Canceling-Microphone depends on different applications.
For the product produced after 2023, you may see the AI Noise-Canceling Microphone user interface shows as below. You could adjust it depends on the circumstances (Studio-quality or Conference call)
Besides, Target Speaker Tracking function could be set to on under Single presenter conference call. This features could targets and tracks new talker to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and enhance recording quality.
*Small core CPU DO NOT support Target Speaker Tracking
AI Noise-Canceling Speaker *It is supported starting with models with Intel Tiger Lake/AMD Lucienne platform. You can go to ASUS website to check the CPU platform of your device.
(For Comet Lake platform, only support X409FAC/X509FAC/UX535LH/UX535LI)
AI Noise-Canceling Speaker filters out all noise except for human voices coming out from the laptop speaker.
Therefore, even if the person on the other side of the voice call is in a noisy environment, the user can still hear their voice clearly.
*Why doesn't it work even if AI Noise Canceling-Microphone or AI Noise Canceling-Speaker is turned on? Please refer to here.
Sound Modes
Select the sound modes you’d like to apply to enhance the audio experience.
If your device is equipped with Dolby Atmos, there will be customized functions for you to adjust in Dolby control panel.
