What G-Helper is
G-Helper is a free, portable Windows control tool for tuning performance, fans, GPU, battery, and RGB on Asus laptops and handhelds. It offers Silent, Balanced, and Turbo performance modes with built-in fan curves, plus Eco, Standard, Ultimate, and Optimized GPU modes. Dedicated GPU settings include core and memory clock offsets, GPU power, Dynamic Boost, and temperature limits. Automation can change performance mode, GPU mode, screen refresh rate, and keyboard-backlight timeout based on whether the device is on AC or battery power. An in-game overlay displays FPS, CPU and GPU temperatures, fan RPM, and power draw. The app also provides settings for selected Asus mice, keyboards, and headsets, including lighting, bindings, equalizers, and battery information. It checks the official Asus site for BIOS and driver updates for the specific model. G-Helper uses the Asus System Control Interface driver and operating modes stored in the laptop BIOS. It runs as a single executable without installation and requires .NET 10 Desktop Runtime and the Asus System Control Interface. The desktop application says it does not collect or transmit personal data or transfer information to other networked systems. Its code signing is provided free by SignPath.io with a certificate from the SignPath Foundation. Contributions are voluntary and can be made through Stripe, PayPal, GitHub Sponsors, or Buy Me a Coffee.
