A:AnswerIf you expect any battery powered piece of hardware to give you the gaming performance and play time you want for anywhere over an hour, I think your expectations are a little bit high. Ifyou're gaming for 2-3 hours with this laptop unplugged, im thoroughly impressed. IMO While gaming you should always be plugged in.
For other stuff, like word, excel, browsing, and emails - I've had mine survive for a good deal of time on just battery. If you're having power issues I'd suggest adjusting your power profiles to mitigate extraneous power use, reducing brightness, or just finding an outlet.
A:AnswerIt's pretty likely that the cooling has been improved with added heat pipes. I ordered one today, so I don't know for sure, but the Asus website mentions upgraded cooling for the 7700s (although it's paired with a 7940hs instead of this 7735hs).
A:AnswerI tried it, it only shows 4800mhz with my 5600mhz 32GB from my other gaming laptop. So no. It only supports 4800mhz. Bios doesn't have XMP Profile option
A:AnswerHey KNAT you can get over 165fps on this laptop on medium graphics on FORTNITE. I play Call of Duty MW3 on Max settings and get between 120-160fps.
A:AnswerIt depends on your VR headset. As someone already said, the Valve Index is a no-go because it needs DisplayPort to hook into it, but a Quest Link uses a USB-C port, which this setup has.
But I have yet to see someone verify first-hand how it does with a Quest.
A:AnswerI'm going to find out on Wed. Asus website has a 7700s paired with a 7940hs, and that model says 120w TGP.
But that's all curious, because everywhere else online says the 7700s max TGP is 100w. If that's true, I'd guess this GPU will overclock well with the extra 20w available.
A:AnswerI personally have never ran into a PC/Laptop that couldn’t unless there wasn’t enough ram or storage. I’ve created a partition on this laptop and have dual boot to Windows 11 and Ubuntu. I haven’t had any issues yet.
A:AnswerI'm not an expert but I have this laptop. I'm not sure about recording and film but this should run most of the games. I'm sure that recording, filming and playing at the same time will need more RAM and Storage and you can upgrade those. If your son wants to play heavy games and record and film you might want to search for a better laptop or just build your own desktop. This is literally a good laptop you can get if you have limited funds and wants a good laptop. If you don't have a limit you can search a better laptop(I saw some that cost 3k tho that's crazy)or just build a desktop(you need a lot of research and money for this).
A:AnswerYea but if you want to push this laptop or any laptop to its limits especially vr I’d highly highly recommend to put it on top of a laptop cooler of some sort so you don’t fry your gpu into Bolivian
A:AnswerIt does have ray tracing. Running MSFS and WOW should be fine but DCS might be hard. I got these answers comparing system requirements of the games and this laptops specs so my answer might not be accurate.
A:AnswerThe ASUS TUF Gaming A17 (FA617NT) is a great choice for playing Roblox. Roblox has relatively modest system requirements, and the FA617NT exceeds these requirements with its powerful hardware. The following link will provide you with additional information regarding the device.
