Tongfang Laptops & Desktops Driver

Posted on  by 

Tsinghua Tongfang Co., Ltd., which was officially established in 25th June 1997 and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange at the same year, is a high-tech listed company founded by Tsinghua University. Jan 28, 2021 TONGFANG GK5CN5Z / GK5CN6Z / GK5CQ7Z / GK5CP0Z. This warranty experience was terrible minus the fact that we now have working laptops. Lol ChiFlipNurd312, Jan 25.

Laptops

Tongfang® is a laptop ODM or manufacturer similar to Clevo®. This means their units are often not named Tongfang but show up all over the place. which can gets quite confusing when you're unable to understand their models.
They've gained popularity around the world with their GK5CN6Z model which was a small form factor but well cooled GTX 1060 laptop that was well priced. One of their more unique selling points is having mechanical keyboards on their rather low priced units. A feature normally found on much more expensive gaming laptops.

Tongfang laptops are sold by almost all 'custom' or 'boutique' laptop companies. Basically if you see a laptop and you're not sure what brand it is... It's probably a Tongfang. If it's not that it's probably a Clevo. (link to Clevo paste)
