    For the price it is well worth it for those that want to be able to play the new games. I am very pleased with its performance and would recommend it for the low price compared to others in it's class.

    I love this laptop. It plays all the games on steam that I want to play and it is so much faster than my old laptop. Should of bought one sooner. I would recommend this one for the price.

    Love this computer! So far so good. No issues. Extremely fast. Response time over the top! Boots up in 3 seconds! Has no hard drive to hear it grinding and turning therefore taking so dang long to start up like my computer before this one had. It's all electronic. Clear, sharp screen to look at. The colored dancing lights are really cool too! Refresh rate is good enough as I'm not an extreme gamer. I play games on it daily for a little while after working on the computer all day to relax a bit and have some fun after work. Of course if you want a higher better refresh rate you have to spend the bucks too. So far I'm glad I made this choice.

    At the black Friday price of $899 it was a good bargin. 200 to 300 less than comparable laptops. So far has ran cool and quite. Seems to have the power to push any game I've tried.

    Picked this up for $900 last year and the price per performance ratio was very good for a laptop. Only downside is that the panel is limited to 60hz.

    When it is on sale, it is a very good choice. So far so good but 60 hz doesn't satisfy totally.

    Did a bit of research before purchasing this unit. I was hoping it would have one of the G-Sync screen option, but it did not. It's a very good performer. The SSD, 16GB, and GTX1660 Ti make it capable of running anything you throw at it. Connected my Occulus Quest with a USB C cable and was able to play VR games with it.

    I’ve had this for almost a year now and it’s pretty good. It have good graphics and is great as an entry laptop to the gaming world. My only thing is, it gets wayy too hot, too quick. I bought an additional fan but it still can be pretty hot. For that it’s not 5 stars. I would still recommend this laptop. Just suggest investing in additional fan.

    Get's The Job Done

    Purchased this to replace my Alienware PC for gaming and also to have a more mobile computer for streaming with the wife. I do not play graphic intensive games (Main Games: Starcraft 2 and CS:GO)but have no issue running them at High settings and sometimes can get away with Ultra. Pros are that the fan is not as loud as I was expecting and only got crazy on the first day of gaming on it. Also is fast at processing and have not experienced any lag yet. Cons would be that it seems to suggest updating often which can be a good or bad thing depending on what you're doing and if you don't mind wait. Also, have had two occurrences where my screen would say "starting update do not shut down" and hang on that screen causing me to need to force shut down the laptop. Finally, my motherboard light went out randomly for no good reason. Tried using both the RGB and Aura to get it back on to no avail. Tried tweeting ROG Support and got no response. Does not effect the laptop, but I paid for this model the have that ascetic. Hopefully someone at Asus responds to this review and helps me with that. All and all not bad. Wish it had a cd-rom and camera too for the price, but what can ya do? Obviously nothing beats PC.

    Worth the money all the way around. great sound, great picture and great speed options. from small tasks to larger this laptop does it all. this is not for someone that wants a pocket size computer to carry around. this is for the person that wants the best of the best and someone who wants to game hard or get their work done and relax in the same day.

    The Asus Gaming Machine was purchased during the pre-Christmas Sales and it is very quick and a pleasure to use. Anyone needing a fast machine for everyday use, this may be the one to consider. Needing to replace an outdate machine this beauty was one of several being compared for possible purchase and ended up in my Best Buy Shopping Cart. Couldn't be more pleased with my new Asus Laptop Computer. Merry Christmas to Me.
