Got my ROG a few weeks back as a replacement laptop primarily for CAD / school / light gaming. CPU / GPU easily make this a versatile laptop. Biggest concern is the storage, soldered RAM and operating temperatures. All other models have an HDD/SDD combo and two free RAM slots. This model has 2 RAM slots but, one free and a clunker of an HDD. Swapped in 16 GB RAM, 256 GB NVME and 1 GB 2.5 SATA SSD and we're running smooth as butter. That and i installed a fresh copy of windows to remove bloat. Also made myself a cooling desk using old PC fans when doing GPU heavy things because 95+ in a cool environment is ridiculous, but that's what you get with a slim 'gaming' laptop.
Would definitely recommend if you're looking for something that's generally 'future' proof in terms of relative upgradeability. This recommendation is assuming there are no deals on comparable specs from other brands.

We bought this for our son to take to college-we were skeptical because of some reviews. So far, this computer has been perfect for him and was a much better value than another gaming laptop that we bought from a different company. No problems with speed or overheating.

This does have some great quality's for the money for example the 1060 graphics card the 12 gb ram, however the biggest downfall for me is i use 100 percent disk space while i am using computer at all tiimes and it does run hot. But other than that great pc.

This laptop does exactly what I wanted it to do. I can run all games at on high or ultra high settings with great FPS.
I never dip below 50 during high action games, explosions etc.
The 1060 is a great graphics chip and preformed better than I thought.
