Looking at the Asus G700TF, this is the perfect budget desktop for anyone looking to get into PC gaming. With today’s cost of PC peripherals rising daily, pre-built PC’s may be a better option to save on overall cost long-term. Enter Asus’s new budget build, the ROG G700. To put things in the proper perspective, this is a more than capable pre-build gaming PC. The G700 is not just a gaming PC in the scheme of things. This is a great setup for school and the home office. You can also throw in some light video editing and coding. This rig is perfect for media consumption and can be used in a dual streaming setup. The G700 would be perfect as a dedicated PC for popular streaming services such as Twitch or Kick. The Asus G700 Build The presentation of the G700 is gorgeous. The Asus G700 is massive in comparison to most cases I’ve seen. The overall case design is beautiful, with plenty of RGB lighting and plenty of space for airflow. Since the gaming PC is fairly large, you will need to ensure you have adequate room for it. Motherboard – B860M Max Gaming AX – the B860M is a mid-range motherboard that provides excellent value with plenty of connectivity options. This motherboard features WiFi 6, a pre-installed single stick of 16GB DDR5 ram that can be upgraded to 128GBs of ram. This motherboard is on the LGA1851 socket platform which is on the newer end. CPU- Intel Core Ultra 5 225F- This is a mid-range budget friendly CPU that does not have integrated graphics, which means it would be best to add a dedicated graphics card. The CPU has 10 cores with 10 threads and a TDP of 65 watts. Storage- The G700 comes with an included 1TB GEN 4 NVME SSD. There are plenty of USB ports available as well. Graphics Card – The included GPU is a 5060 8GB model. The RTX 5060 was able to play all the games I threw at it. However, the settings had to be lowered significantly due to the limitations of 8GB vram. On the plus side, the RTX 5060 supports DLSS multi-frame generation, which can provide an FPS boost and even allows 1440p gaming with some games. This makes the Asus G700 a good option for someone that is just getting their feet wet in the PC gaming world. With all the options that the Asus G700 offers, it would be the perfect entry into PC gaming for anyone. This package can be upgraded from entry level to a full-fledged premium setup over time. Asus has outdone themselves with creating a beautifully crafted gaming PC that will open the doors to endless customization.

Being a PC enthusiast, I wasn't sure what to expect with this. I've never used a pre-built gaming PC before, as I've always built my own. As such, I spent my time with it comparing its value to the value of building a computer myself. First things first. It's well packaged, and it's beautiful. The case is one of the coolest I've ever seen, with some cool RGB features inside, a built in bracket for GPU support, and a lot of space for airflow. The ports are plenty, and there's a little warning sticker to let people know to plug their display cables into their GPU, not the motherboard connector. Great for people who may be buying this without much knowledge on PCs. It's worth noting that this thing is absolutely enormous. It's cumbersome. It barely fits on my desk, and it doesn't fit very comfortable anywhere at all. Yet the motherboard they chose for the build is only a micro ATX, meaning that they could have used a much, much smaller case. Bigger cases have better airflow, but with the parts in this machine, thermals are of little concern. In short, the case is beautiful, but unnecessarily large. The parts of the computer themselves make for a fantastic entry level build. There's a solid CPU with room to upgrade, a decent mid-range GPU that does the job, an acceptable 1 TB of storage for games. It's got 16GB of RAM, which I'd argue is the minimum you need for a good computing experience on Windows these days. I'd have preferred more, even if it were only 24GB, but 16 is enough for a starter computer. Here's the deal. If you wanted to build the computer yourself, using equivalent parts, the cost comparison is pretty interesting. The exact graphics card, the Asus RTX 5060 Dual, can be had for $299.99 on Amazon. At the time of writing, the CPU, the Intel Core Ultra 5 225f, can be had for about $160. The exact motherboard is hard to find on sale - the B860m Max AX - but a similar one can be had for $150-$200. Let's put this on the higher end and say $200. At the time of writing, we're having the worst RAM cost crisis I've ever seen, thanks to AI. 16GB of DDR5 is difficult to find anyways, but I've found some that cost about $100-$150. Again, let's go on the higher end of that spectrum and say $150. A 1TB NVME is also more expensive than it has been in recent years, and costs about $80. Throw in $100 for a power supply, $75 for a case, $25 for some fans, and you've got yourself a perfectly functioning computer that costs about $1100, give or take. Mind you, that's only with brand new parts. You could certainly buy used on a graphics card and/or motherboard and/or CPU and/or RAM and reduce your cost by a couple hundred, but that's besides the point. For the value of this computer (around $1200 at the time of writing), the pre-built is actually not that expensive. Now, I love building computers, but not everyone wants to deal with it. For an extra $100 on top of the cost of parts, I think this is an excellent value. But how does it game? I didn't give the computer incredibly strenuous tests, as I don't play a lot of brand new AAA hyper demanding games. But I can say that with games like Elden Ring and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2, it performed amazingly. Dark Souls Remastered was also fantastic. In the case of Elden Ring and Dark Souls Remastered, they ran at a buttery smooth 60FPS without hitching or stuttering - even in the crowded, particle-heavy areas of Elden Ring. They were both on high at 1440P. THPS1+2 ran at somewhere in the ballpark of 180FPS on high at 1440P as well. So why only four stars? Well, even with all the pros, there are still some things that I think need addressing. Number one, the RAM speed - it runs at the minimum speed out of the box. It's fast enough for use and all, but not everyone knows how to get into the BIOS and activate the XMP profile, especially if they're new to PC gaming. Seems like a major oversight. Number two, the case is unwieldy and unnecessary. It has no reason to be in a case like this. Three, the included keyboard and mouse are dreadful. The rough texture on the keys of the keyboard are like sandpaper, and they feel very thin. It's quite unpleasant. The mouse feels chintzy and light and hollow. The peripherals function, but every other garbage office PC keyboard I've used manages to be superior to the ones included here. It didn't need to be mechanical switches or anything, but come on. All in all, I do think this is a fantastic computer for people looking to get into PC gaming. The price is steep, but for what you pay, you'll be able to play all kinds of games from all different generations for years to come.

I’m deep into PC gaming and I’ve owned or tested and even repaired many PCs, both gaming and non gaming. So while I knew this was an entry level gaming pc from asus I knew it would still be worth it. With an Intel ultra 5, 16gb ddr5@6000mt, 1TB fast nvme ssd, and a 5060 8gb vram powered by a liteon 600 watt power supply you have a great entry into PC gaming. Motherboard is an asus b860m max gaming ax which is a mid range that offers a lot of flexibility for aio coolers,argb lighting and very nice VRM cooling as well. I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to upgrade(which I did-see pics). The pc case is large but tastefully done with nice RGB fans,also they added the bottom cover which is also RGB and everything is controlled through the asus software and it be software works great. As far as performance which most care about, you should be pairing this with at most an asus 1440p high refresh rate monitor and at the least a 1080p but I don’t recommend 1080 as the 50 series not only offers great performance but the ai helps you get more frames with DLSS4 or frame gen even at the entry level of the 5060. But you can run native 1440p on less demanding games. Everything runs smooth and snappy on windows 11. The cpu stays fairly cool with the included tower cooler and 90mm fan(I think). The WiFi and download speeds are super fast with WiFi AX. U can even run 4k if you run DLSS performance which is crazy though detail is slightly degraded but doable lol. Only minor issues I saw was the ram is only a single 16gb stick which is minor hit to performance compared to ddr4 and the ram speed was set to default (4800mt) in the bios but I enabled XMP. Now I went ahead and upgraded the pc since I loved the case,RGB and Mb. So I’ll post pictures just to show you want you can do later when you decide to upgrade. Again this is a budget friendly Pc build and if that’s what you are looking for this is a great set up with endless possibilities.

This a great starting pc. I’m dabbled with pc so I’m no expert here compared to others. But I have enoug experience with different systems to tell that this is one solid pre built system. Will this system knock your socks off and run everything at high and get you 4k? No it won’t but it doesn’t have to. It’s a great machine at 1080p and even at 1440p I have been able to play a fair amount games and still get great frame rates. I needed something for my oldest son he turned 15 this year and was ready for his own rig. So we didn’t want to get thin anything too crazy and we mainly played things like Fortnite, call of duty and tried out games like out worlds 2 and planet coaster everything but planet coaster we were getting easily over 60fps at 1440p. The 5060 in the system only has 8gb of vram so there is only so far you can push so of the more modern games. Only one we ran some trouble into was Indiana jones that game requires a lot of vram so that tends to be an issue if try to push it too much. But with everything else it ran great system never got hit the case and fans did an incredible job keeping it cool. Out of the box everything was easy to setup and get going. If your looking for something to get started or just wanted something that was no fuss this is a great system to get

I bought this as a gift and got it for an amazing price. The delivery was delayed a bit because of the holiday, but that was to be expected. Setup was quick and straightforward, and the system feels solid and well-built. Performance has been great right out of the box—the RTX 5060 8GB handles games smoothly, though I do wish it came with 16GB of VRAM. Overall, it’s a powerful, great-value gaming desktop that I’d absolutely recommend.

This pre built computer was on a good discount at $400 off during the holidays, and gave me a good reason to buy a pre built rather than building my own. Overall the performance has far exceeded my expectations. I’m getting over 100 fps on heavy gpu intense games, and even the intel cpu is holding its own as well. I’ve done some minor overclocking with no issues as well. Very very happy with this system.

I am very happy with this. Clean build, good cable management and easy access to most things you might want to upgrade. While this is kind of an "entry level" gaming PC, even stock it would satisfy most people. I'm getting great performance on MSFS and sim racing titles. Even while gaming it's pretty quiet and not nearly as hot as my old PC. Only negative is the case is a bit larger than I expected but that's OK ... it looks good.

Considering the price of RAM and other components right now, finding a prebuilt with these specs from a reputable company feels like a steal. While my son doesn’t do a ton of AAA gaming, it’s been able to handle everything he’s thrown at it thus far. Set up was easy. It plugged in and turned on and worked. Runs quiet and fast. Really thrilled with this purchase.

I bought this as a gift for my son and he loves it. He said that he will also use it for making and editing videos for his school projects which makes me happy. I'm glad I was able to get it as the Deal of the Day for $800 instead of the regular price of $1200. The delivery was on time and no complaints so far.

In 1440p it got 240 on gta5 220 in fortnite EPIC SETTINGS and 230 at forzahorizon 5 while recording

Great pc. Got it on sale $400 off retail. Recommend if on sale otherwise I’d go for a better graphics card and more ram Asus pc for couple hundred more. I’m fine with the frames I’m getting on 1440p for the price I paid. Comes with a mouse and keyboard

Well built PC with upgrading options. I primarily use it for AI work, for which the models that we run is limited due to the 8 GB VRAM. But I got it during an offer, and it is worth for the price.

Product came in perfect condition and the fans are quiet. It runs games like Cyberpunk in high settings and the performance is quick. it runs most AAA games smoothly for the price, although personally some cutscenes feel a bit laggy or janky. I was lucky to get this on a really good deal!

Great prebuilt of course people are gonna complain about the card only having 8gb but I think for this build it’s just right. Runs everything quietly and smoothly, couldn’t be more happy with my purchase.

My son loves this and all his friends were envious when he received this for x-mas so I would take that as a good sign! It seems like a great computer and I like that. So far so good!

It’s aight not the best tho, RTX 5060 with the 8gb VRAM is lwky lacking now a days

Bought as a gift for husband for Christmas. Didn’t quite have the right specs to run his games online. Still a great computer just need a bit more for what he wants to do with it.

Listed specs are incorrect, it only has one HDMI port. Also, two of the m.2 slots are used so you only have one for expansion. Do note, if you're planning on installing an m.2 SSD there is no screw included on the standoff on the motherboard, so you'll have to buy or find one. ASUS saved pennies on a screw so I had to spend ten bucks to order a pack that I'll never use more than one of, and it meant I had to wait a few days to get my system set up how I wanted. PC works fine, but the missing HDMI port and screw really annoyed me.

The ROG G700 is a great entry level system ro get started with PC gaming. It's capable in it's own right and offers reasonable upgrade paths for the future. Not to mention it looks really nice!

This was exactly what I was looking for as a gift for my son. He is very happy with the computer and I was happy with the sale price.
