Q: What is the refresh rate on this screen?

A: Hi Stev3001, The AORUS 5 SE4-73US213SH features a 1080p 144hz display. Hope this answers your question!

Q: will I be able to upgrade ram to DDR5

A: Spec's say DDR4, so no upgrade path in that regard. The good news is, the real world performance is pretty much the same, and upgrading to more ram is less than half the price for DDR4.

Q: What is the TGP of the 3070 gpu in here? boost and no boost

A: 130 Watts

Q: Hello, does this laptop support another m.2 2280 PCIe NVMe gen 4x4 or gen 3x4 SSD?

A: 2 pcie gen 4 slots

Q: Everyone is saying m.2 ssd. So does that mean its specifically m.2 or m.2 2280 and others. Isnt there a difference due to size? Need a wizard to answer, not some good samaritan.

A: Hi NotAWizard, M.2 is the connector, and the number following just means the size. 22 (22mm wide, and 80 meaning 80mm long) This is the most common size for laptops and whats found in this Aorus laptop. Hope this helps! - John

Q: Is the RGB only static or does it have other settings?

A: Hi Jay, You can change the RGB settings to your liking using the Gigabyte Control Center software. Hope this helps! - John

Q: What is the noise level?

A: I have not had a problem with noise from this computer.

Q: Does it only support another M.2 Internal SSD PCIe Gen 4 x4 NVMe? Or will support M.2 2280 also? sorry. im new to this hobby. Can you list all the types of SSDs it can support? Does it void the return policy and warranty if we upgrade it?

A: Hi Sam, This laptop does support Gen 4.0 NVMe. The M.2 2280 references the connector & the sizing (22mm wide 80mm long) This is the most common size for m.2's and thats whats found in this laptop. Hope this helps! - John

Laptops pretty cool
Not the prettiest laptop but no one else I know even now has a laptop as fast as mine. It's a real rtx card and a real Intel 13 series. Still good in 2023 for most games. The keyboard took a bit to get used to but it's a good keyboard overall. Just wish the trackpad was more centered and has buttons but I can't gripe about that. The display is amazing, very good framerate and a nice matte finish. The battery is the Achilles heel of this laptop, but honestly, it's a tank. You won't be taking this to the park for 6 hours. It's more like a desktop that you can use anywhere in the house. There's nothing better than the freedom of being able to use your computer at your desk, bed, kitchen, and then game on the same one without having to do the "file shuffle." And yes, it has SD card support.

Great productivity and gaming laptop
I have been using the laptop for about a week and in short I do recommend this laptop, specially when comparing the price to other laptops with similar specs, it’s great for productivity and gaming, and the cons that I found can be solved through updates or might not bother you at all. Pros: It’s sturdy, you can customize profiles and fan speeds, powerful CPU and GPU for productivity and gaming. Cons: Battery life, camera position, connected HDMI and USBs stick out, need a T6H torx screwdriver to open, had issues with audio, video and BSoD before applying all available Windows 11 and driver updates. If you’re interested in the details keep reading. Laptop Built: It feels sturdy, the only part with some flex is the area around the panel logo. Comfortable keyboard and touchpad. The camera is at the bottom so your fingers may get in the way, and the angle is bad. Connected USB or HDMI don’t go all in and stick out of the connection port, everything works fine but there can be some wiggle. Gigabyte Control Center: The software has different (customizable) profiles that adjust hardware settings, which is useful and convenient. You can monitor CPU and GPU utilization and temperatures, and current fan speed. Productivity Task: On the creator profile Cinebench R23 single core score was 1739 and 13049 for multi core, the turbo profile yielded higher scores. Compiling UE5 source code (and doing nothing else) took about 1 hour 25 minutes, for reference another laptop that had an i7-9750H and same RAM took 3 hours 45 minutes. For rendering I use blender, the classroom scene took 45 seconds using the CPU and 31 seconds using the GPU. Gaming: Tested on high settings using the control center’s gaming profile and got the average fps at both 1080p (laptop’s display) and 1440p (external display). In Cyberpunk I used the game’s benchmark, 1080p got 85 fps and 117 fps with DLSS; 1440p got 55 fps and 92 fps with DLSS. For Witcher 3 I visited different areas in the game, 118 fps at 1080p and 100 fps at 1440p. For Control I played the game’s start, 1080p got 107 fps and 130 fps with DLSS; at 1440p it got 73 fps and 110 fps with DLSS. Temperatures: The room temperature is around 23C. When iddle CPU temps are around 30C, when multitasking it goes to 47C. Gaming on ultra settings average temps were 85C for CPU and 75C for GPU, both ±5C. At the highest temps the WASD area of the keyboard felt warm at most, but the area around the enter key felt hot. Battery Life: I recorded the time it took to go from 100% to 10% on different profiles. While only streaming movies on power saving mode the battery lasted 4 hours 30 minutes. On creator mode and multitasking battery lasted around 2 hours. For gaming, Witcher 3 on medium settings, 1 hour 25 minutes.

Excellent Laptop but the RGB Controls Are Limited
For the price, this is a beast of a midrange laptop. I can play the latest version of Cyber Punk 2077 on RTX Ultimate settings at an average of 70fps. To increase battery life you will definitely need to adjust the power settings and disable the keyboard LCD. Things to note: The display refresh rate on this model is 144Hz. If you're a streamer, you're going to need a USB hub. The GoXLR is a little quirky; sound from web browsers goes in and out, especially when watching YouTube. The keys feel nice and clicky and have a good bit of travel. Single PC streaming from this laptop is pretty much flawless, but it's worth mentioning that the fans get really loud when so you'll want noise reduction effects on your mic. My only issue is with the Gigabyte Control Center. Do not update it. As soon as I updated it, the Fusion RGB tab was limited to 7 colors and only a static effect. You can create a custom color profile but you can't delete it. I just bothering to use the GCC. Other than that, I highly recommend this laptop if it fits your budget.
