Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Can you charge the laptop with a Thunderbolt 4 dock or hub?
A: The ASUS 15.6" TUF F15 FX506HC series cannot be charged via Thunderbolt 4 or with a hub.
Q: 2. Ram upgrade can be done with only 01 memory of 16gb. Or do I have to update with 02 memories of 16gb?
A: The ASUS 15.6" TUF Gaming F15 Laptop (Mecha Gray) has two slots for RAM, and a maximum capacity or 32GB of RAM. You can use a single stick of RAM if you wanted, but it would not perform as well as dual stick setups, so when upgrading the RAM from 16GB to 32GB, I would advise using two 16GB sticks instead of one 32GB stick.
Q: 3. Can I add an additional SSD to the already installed SSD? So I can have two SSDs installed at the same time?
A: Yes, this ASUS 15.6" TUF Gaming F15 Series Gaming Laptop can accommodate another M.2 2280 SSD.
Q: 4. Can the TUF F15 Aura keyboard backlight feature be modified (without additional software) to have only a static or dimmable, white backlight?
