    I've been using this as a replacement for my stolen desktop. It runs VR via Oculus well. I like the overboost settings being built in. The keypad layout is functional and useful for gaming. My only gripe is it seems like graphics are a mix of Nvidia and Intel so instead of using the Nvidia Control Panel like I usually do for everything I'm using the Intel Graphics Settings.

    I got this laptop to replace an older bulky ASUS one, and it has been amazing for me. I've used it plenty for gaming, and doing work for school now. I haven't had any problems, and whatever I did have I've been able to quickly fix. The only thing I don't like is the stutter that happens when plugging and unplugging the charger, but that's very minor overall. Definitely worth the money.

    Works good, my first device comes with a damaged motherboard. But the second device was perfect until some kind of thing. Has a good default app (Asus), great for gaming with a 120hz display. Has a bad cooling system. Reach High temperature (80c) even 90c. But works great for multitasking and also has great space storage.
