## What it is
G-Helper is a lightweight, open-source Windows application that serves as an alternative to Asus Armoury Crate for controlling Asus laptops and handhelds. It provides a single portable executable for managing performance modes, fan curves, GPU switching, screen refresh rates, RGB lighting, hotkeys, and hardware monitoring.

## Use cases
- replace Armoury Crate on an Asus ROG Zephyrus or TUF laptop
- switch between Eco, Standard, and Ultimate GPU modes on demand
- customize fan curves and power limits per performance mode
- limit battery charge to preserve battery health
- control keyboard RGB backlight and Anime Matrix LED panel
- monitor CPU/GPU temperatures and fan speeds
- overclock or undervolt the NVIDIA GPU
- remap M-keys and ROG/Aura hotkeys

## When to choose
- you own an Asus laptop or ROG Ally and want a lightweight, bloat-free control tool
- you want a portable single-exe app that doesn't install services
- you need automatic GPU switching and custom fan/power profiles
- you want to fully uninstall Armoury Crate but keep its functionality

## When to avoid
- you don't own Asus hardware
- you need real-time manual fan control (firmware governs fans; only profiles are settable)
- you rely on Aura Sync ecosystem-wide lighting or Scenario Profiles
- you need a cross-platform tool (Windows only)
