Luckily I didn't get any dead pixels or bleeding. I don't know why this laptop boots up so slow, also when you put it in sleep mode and wake it up, it tends to display the initial setup page, where it asks you to select a language, etc etc. For those reasons I'm taking off a star, other than that, it's an absolute beast. I upgraded from a laptop from 5 years back that was 17 inches too, also from asus, and the weight difference is what makes me happy. It is heavy, but compared to previous generations of ASUS laptops with similar build, I see no problem travelling with it. Note, that it is really hard to carry in a bag, as it won't fit. 18 inch bags are uncommon.

Love it. Gaming laptops have come a long way as far as temperature, power, and fan noise. Im mostly gaming in silent mode which gives great performance with no fan noise. But even performance mode isnt that loud. Personally im annoyed by fan noise which is why i never considered gaming laptops...but this is my favorite purchase of the year! No coil whine, screen backlight bleed is tollerable, build quality is amazing (high quality plastic) and amazingly smooth glass trackpad. Almost forgot to mention how immersive the 18inch screen is. Brighness is insanely great. Battery is what youd expect from a beefy gaming laptop. Its really not too heavy and is pretty amazingly thin looking...I honestly enjoy holding and admiring it even when im not using it.

Solid laptop for gaming, does need an extea cooling pad.

Computer computes and so can you! Seriously though, it runs great and does everything i need it to do from playing games and all other applications ive tried to use it for.

Great laptop i played cyberpunk 2077, starfield and grand theft auto v playing 1400p 60 and 4k 60 when i hook it to my tv awesome tech just hate the power brick but i get a 4080 take so much juice.

Nothing bad to say, everything is running smooth into my 3rd week. But the screen is very very large! Which is great for a desktop replacement. And im also loving the Dolby Atmos.

Definitely rough on the wallet but hopefully it will be usable for years to come. Ive been playing a lot of games they all run amazingly well, better than my desktop no real complaints

Runs all my games fine without any issues. Mine ran great until my cat knocked it off the table so hopefully I can get a replacement

We’ll build. Performs very well with GTX 4080. Good price for such an amazing hardware.

Expensive but an amazing machine. I have zero regrets about purchasing this laptop and found that it doesn't feel as large as I expected an 18" laptop to be. For someone who doesn't carry their laptop around a lot but want the option, it's perfect. I upgraded to 64GB RAM as soon as I got it and will be adding another NVME drive. I thought that for the price you'd get at least 32GB RAM, but RAM is cheap and took only a few min to install. The battery life is (as expected) awful but I have it on the charger 95% of the time so it's not a problem for me.

Great laptop out the box, I'd recommend upgrading NVMe's and memory before getting to deep into using this laptop to much. Go ahead and spend the extra $500 on upgrades. With the upgrades I can say this can definitely be a desktop replacement for those that require portability. When I bought this I immediately bought 2x 2TB Samsung 990 Pro, 2x 32GB Crucial SODIMM 4800 memory sticks, and copper "heat sinks" for the NVMe's, they are really heat dissapators but search "heat sink" when looking for them. The NVMe's have not gotten over 36 Celsius even when gaming for hours. With the upgrades this laptop is speedy and ready for anything I throw at it.

Asus is the worst choice for a high-end gaming laptop. Stutters and freezes even while performing simple tasks. Overheats and crashes a couple minutes into gameplay. Fans randomly run at max speed for no reason. Constantly switching between power modes while plugged in causing additional freezing. Spf service crashes tens of thousands of times causing stuttering and sluggish feeling. Driver updates wont fix the problem. Go down enough rabbit holes and you'll find out its poorly written firmware and theres nothing you can do. Asus hasn't fixed the problem no matter what they claim. Save the headache and spend your money elsewhere.

This things a beast. Fast, vivid, sleek and expensive. Great machine for someone wanting a portable powerhouse…that’s near an outlet.

This laptop proved to give me everything ineeded to have the most cutting edge performance on gaming. Not only that impressive fast response throughout all apps.

It is a MONSTER, the best laptop I´ve had. The only downside is win 11 home, could of been pro, but no, home edition.

Great gaming laptop and the graphics are amazing! Easy to upgrade memory if you want too.

Best gaming laptop I have ordered! This thing is a beast and does almost everything I throw at it.

No issues with my unit. Coil whine is a thing but once the fans kick in it is unnoticeable. While larger than most it is still smaller than older desktop replacements I've owned.

Almost perfect all around gaming laptop. Closest thing to a gaming desktop I’ve played on. Only flaw is fan noise but can be turned down in silent mode when not gaming.

One of the Best gaming laptops ASUS has produced yet! Fast processor and you can expand RAM really easy!
