Hissing definitely reminded me of when I let the magic smoke out of some charging ICs when working on other electronics. It can look fine but trying to fix them if they have a port is a big pain.

Huh. I thought just opening it voided that for some reason. I was misinformed.
Doesn’t replacing the ssd void the warranty?
And a warranty.
The read-only bit and updates causing packages to revert changes is kind of a big deal. I’ve rarely seen it mentioned or it is constantly glossed over.
Friend’s ROG fried its SD card reader. They have some serious heat dissipation issues. The other Windows-running units he’s tried have had myriad flaws: defective keyboards, poor sound, buggy performance, etc. They seem rushed. Most have sent replacement parts at least without a hassle…
I used to think this until I helped out on a robotics site. Some people are absolutely hopeless at soldering even after tons of practice. It is what it is.
My friend has a Windows partition for it. Set it up day one. Works fine. Would be nice to have it native. I’m not running Windows just to play it myself.
