*** OFFICIAL GIGABYTE AERO 15 OWNERS LOUNGE ***

My Aero 15 no longer turns on without being plugged in. The battery displays 100% charge. Any ideas?

 

Weird. Try re-installing the BIOS?

 

Hi guys. I'm having issues trying to get 4k@60Hz from the USB-C thunderbolt 3 port, through a DisplayPort 1.2 interface in the monitor.

In theory, the Intel HD Graphics 630 should be capable to output all of that, but in practice, when watching playback video 4k60ps, the video stutters every 3 or 4 seconds.

I tried playing with the Intel(R) Graphics Control Panel a bit, with no luck. I even disabled the built-in screen, so I make sure the intel 630 is only outputting pixels at the 4k screen, but the stutters are still there.

Do any of you guys have this setup working fine? I'm a bit concerned, I'm not sure if the issue could be comming from the intel 630 or even from the thunderbolt 3 interface, but both cases would be rather painful.

Of course, using HDMI or DP over the NVDIA card, everything works fine. But that's not what I'm asking about here.

 

@theypsilon

You tried a different cable?

 

Nope, it is a new cable, and can't even test it in other device. If people has no issues with this setup, probably I will return the cable.

 

Does anyone know how to replace the screen? I want to buy the panel of the aero 15 v8 and replace the current screen I have.

Thanks.

 

Did it, didn't fix it.

 

Is there any official way to get a battery replacement without going through gigabyte? My battery has been effectively destroyed for the last few months due to some bad QA with the battery housing tearing some of the wires and now I can't find an official replacement anywhere.

 

Does anyone have their aero 15x V8 yet? If so how bad is the noise?


Notebook check did a breakdown and mentioned that it can get upto 54dB on max load. Is that something that can be brought down with an undervolt and a repaste ?
