Known Issues & Fixes
| Issue | Solution / Fix |
|---|---|
| Some users reported the RTX 3050 (75W variant) throttles under sustained gaming load due to modest cooling for the price tier. | Not a defect; using Omen Gaming Hub's 'Performance' fan mode and placing the laptop on a cooling pad or hard surface improves sustained performance. |
| A number of owners noted the base 8GB RAM configuration struggles with modern games and heavy multitasking together. | Upgrade to 16GB RAM via the accessible SO-DIMM slot; one slot is user-upgradeable on most configurations. |
