QUOTE(wadthehellz @ Mar 27 2019, 03:15 PM) Hi there, was looking for onyx lite disassembly photo or video but too bad did not have any luck finding it alternatively you can look for Eluktronics Mech-15 G2, Overpowered 15, XMG Neo 15, Recoil IIall are the same chassis as Onyx |

does the onyx board support asynchronous dual channel?
right now i have factory 16gb 2666mhz, wanted to add in another 4gb 2666mhz to make it dual channel, wondering will it make any difference like increasing the speed, performance and such? This post has been edited by low0915: Jul 2 2019, 09:35 AM |

U see those negative review in google and facebook then u will know about it. is it the model with mechanical keyboard?Henge broken causing the laptop cannot open the panel or close Keyboard spoilt cannot type anything Motherboard spoilt cannot on laptop HDD stop working, once remove ok. have to claim warranty myself many users with this chassis having keyboard problem too, it can be fixed by replacing the keyboard flex cable, but need to access the bottom of motherboard. also yea, the battery sucks, mine also swollen a little bit just after a year look up in this forum for more information about this chassis http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/to...gk5cp0z.815943/ This post has been edited by low0915: Feb 21 2021, 11:40 PM |

here's a demonstration on what keyboard problem i'm having, just replaced the flex cable by myself and it's all working again. tbh barebone laptop made by Tongfang is pretty fragile, there's pretty lot of problem reported from other brands using Tongfang's barebones. Used to be excited with Illegear, now not, you will discover the major problems after using it |

QUOTE(teamjoker @ Feb 22 2021, 02:59 PM) how long is your illegear? many illegear users not active here and no feedback so hard for me to get info especially on Ionic model. 2 years,Ionic i think is Tongfang PF4WN2F, you gotta look for the chassis name and search for other brands using the same chassis. for my Onyx, it's Tongfang Gk5cn6z, other brand rebrand it as Eluktronik Mech G2, Overpowered 15, XMG Neo 15 etc Illegear mostly use Tongfang chassis and rebrand them, some other brand i know using Tongfang chassis are: Mechrevo(机械革命), XMG, Overpowered, Eluktronik, Pcspecialist This post has been edited by low0915: Feb 22 2021, 07:51 PM |

QUOTE(Tokio_Hot @ Apr 25 2021, 06:52 PM) Yeah, I hate to say this but I would like to join this train too. Hey,Still has 1st gen Onyx. Every year, there's always a problem, from keyboard to battery to BIOS. It's like every year I need to go to Damansara and get it checked up. Recently, handed in this laptop before my warranty expired, already told them problems like constant BSOD (even though its not the KB5001330 update, or I put it wrong) and upon turning on without charging, the laptop would switch on but the screen is not light up for a few seconds....then shut itself down before re-start itself properly. The only way I can avoid the 'switch on problem' is by keeping it charging at all times even when I'm not using it. When taking back this laptop, the guy said it has updated the BIOS, quick reset (which I kinda prefer full reset instead) and should be okay. One week later, BAM! BSOD COMES AGAIN!! Even my 6-year old HP still stands strong. is the problem of your "turning on without charging, the laptop would switch on but the screen is not light up for a few seconds" still persist? it happen to me too, i am suspecting it's because of dead CMOS battery, try go into the bios and check the time during cold boot, my one everytime it will reset. Haven't tried to change the CMOS battery yet, it's just my guess what's the problem causing it. here's the boot time comparison between cold boot (first boot after not plugged in for few hours) vs hot boot ![]() ![]() also yea, this chassis has quite lot of problems, even tho from different vendors This post has been edited by low0915: May 1 2021, 05:27 PM |

QUOTE(cks999 @ May 4 2021, 11:19 PM) I was thinking of getting a new Illegear Onyx pro with 11th gen this coming June. But seeing the comments here, i am thinking twice. Should i go for it? i am not sure about the quality of newer model now, 1st gen gtx1060 got quite a few problemsalso it's hard to find spare parts and even battery in Malaysia, unless you want to spend a fortune for their first party services if it's out of warranty. otherwise i'd recommend going to big brand like asus, acer and lenovo since the parts are easier to find, especially battery which is a consumable item |

Anyone know a good and reputable laptop repair shop who does motherboard or cpu/gpu repair?
My laptop gpu is showing error code 43, did everything i could but still no chance. Contacted illegear and they said gpu faulty, need to send back to manufacturer to repair. Would like to know if there's other place to fix, to save cost and time too. :'(( |

QUOTE(munky @ Nov 27 2021, 07:47 PM) Hi guys, Illegear or Tongfang barebones is great if you are lucky if it didn't has small and random issues here and there.Inm thinking of upgrading to the onyx G with ryzen 7 and rtx3070. Is illegear a good quality laptop brand? How often do u encounter issues with your laptop hardware wise? Currently using dell inspiron from 2015 iirc, so far the laptop quAlity is superb, but nowadays sometimes encounter software instability. Other than that its been good. Wanna upgrade coz gtx1050ti cant do shit now One more thing, hows thr after sales service of illegear, like parts availability and speed ? I love my Onyx GTX1060, but it has encountered faulty keyboard flex cable, swollen battery and sudden-dead GPU within 2.5 years of usage and I don't game heavily much. Also out of warranty repair cost is super expensive from official, and it's hard to find replacement parts locally too. Tbh there's too much risk in Illegear laptop by looking at other vendors who also sell Tongfang barebones. I rather choose a well known brand that has big user base and stable qc. Also easier to troubleshoot if you're having problems, especially getting replacement parts. |

QUOTE(tmc @ May 17 2022, 08:05 AM) I have a problem with usb hub that is connected to the usb type C port. The problem is that the usb type C is always on. Even when I shutdown or hibernate or sleep. For those other usb type A ports, they are power off when I shutdown or hibernate. They are power on when in sleep mode. I saw of posts on internet that there are PCs which have CMOS settings for it, called "usb always on". But I cannot find such settings in my pc CMOS. I want the type C port to be off when I hibernate or shutdown. ![]() no setting like this in the Illegear command center? my model is probably too old to help you, hope you find this useful. |
