Q: Can you add more storage to this model? How do I add more storage?

A: Yes this has two 2280 nvme slots one is occupied however you can use a program like macrium back up the main drive and move it to like a 2 tb currently I am running two 2TB nvme pci and it’s great

Q: Bluetooth?

A: Yes

Q: I want a fast Laptop, but do not play games. Can I get Windows 11 operating system on it? Thanks

A: It’s comes with windows 11. You won’t be disappointed with this laptop. I love it. It is fast

Q: ASUS TUF Gaming A16 Advantage Edition (2023) this is the same laptop 2023 with 90 watts battery, or it is the model of 2022 it is confusing

A: No this model is a much better model the model you are referring to is a 16 inch model this is the first 16 inch model in the A series Tuf laptops. This has the latest amd processor as well as latest amd gpu and this thing is phenomenal the battery life is significantly better with the 90 watt hour battery I am getting about 10-14 hours of mixed battery usage.

Q: Whats the max each SSD slot can handle is it 2 TB per slot or 2 TB total with 1 TB NVMe per slot.

A: I added a 2TB SSD to the system second slot thereby getting the original 512GB plus the 2TB. I suspect you can have 2 2TB SSD's but you'll have to mirror the original drive to one 2TB SSD to get all the software onto the 2TB SSD and then add the second SSD.

Q: What is the battery life on this computer? Would it last, say, a 6 hour school day on one charge? Also, how good is the cooling system? Does it require and outside laptop cooler, or can it manage on its own?

A: Battery life depends on how the laptop is used. After four hours of streaming a football game while casually browsing the web, I had 78% battery life remaining. I agree that the CPU runs hot - this is well-known with AMD CPUs. At 25% sustained processor utilization, my CPU temperature ranged between 80 and 85 degrees celsius, which while within specification, is somewhat concerning. The cooling system appears to do its job.

Q: How well does this laptop do with graphics intensive games? Stuff like Horizon Zero Dawn and Resident Evil, is it able to keep up without sacrificing performance?. Does it also do well for work/school?

A: Here are a few FPS from some of the games I've loaded onto the system (all games using highest settings): Battlefield 1 : 149 fps Prey :149 fps Middle Earth - Shadow of Mordor : 90 fps Wolfenstein - The New Order : 111 fps Doom (2016) : 111 fps Bioshock Remastered : 294 fps Black Mesa : 236 fps Dishonored : 118 fps This system is capable of hanging with the big boys. I've been very impressed by its capabilities. It's not the quietest mind you and you will notice the fans kicking into high gear under intense loads, but so far it's been able to handle anything I've thrown at it.
