    Strix G16 5070ti 9HX, 30 day review

    Sick laptop! Went on sale a couple weeks after I bought it, lame. Plan to put 32gb mem in it, other than that it's a beast! Plays Ark maxed out settings, it's amazing! No issues at all. Asus always comes through for the win, I won't buy anything else when it comes to laptops. Battery lasts over an hour playing Ark or Fall Out 4. It's quiet at full speed. Best Buy shipping is NEVER on time, always 3-5 days late, always an issue. This laptop makes me happy, can't wait to tell the wife what I bought! LOL!

    The computer is very fast, the fans keep the computer at a maximum of 80 degrees, and games can be played at maximum quality without any problems. I use it for architecture, and it supports rendering and 3D modeling programs perfectly. In short, it's a very good machine.

    Was debating between OLED and IPS non QHD. OLED looks amazing for sure but on a laptop screen it seems like a bit much. OLED starts to heat up the laptop very hot and then the fans are blasting on max which gets loud. This IPS screen is good on resources, the laptop stays cool well, doesn't sound like an airplane taking off and everything looks really good. I've been playing FF16 on it and it looks, sounds, and runs great. This laptop is a beauty and the keyboard is high quality. Ram I upgraded easily to 64gb. It's not super light but not very heavy either. Portable if you're traveling.

    A laptop for those with disposable income, a strong desire to leave the laptop docked/attached to a charger and does not want to use cloud gaming – ever? What was impressive with this device? Keyboard and front edge lighting, transparent qwerasdf keys and space bar. Movie & streaming playback quality and sound was phenomenal. Downloaded or emulated games played very well. No hiccups playing Goldeneye or Crusin’ on project64 or playing any downloaded games through my xbox app. Using a wired controller was best for response time and had no input delays, but I did have a few issues when bluetooth connecting my xbox remote. What is bad? ASUS Support: I contacted them 3 days ago to see what I could do to fix or reduce all of the problems I have listed below, and nobody has reached back out to me yet. Battery Life: No matter what I did on this laptop, while not connected to a charger I was losing 2-4% battery life PER MINUTE. For 3 different use cycles, a 100% battery was drained down to less than 30% battery in 45 minutes. The first test, I just had windows updates, ASUS software updates, and a game downloading in the background. 45 minutes later, power saving kicked in and I had to connect the laptop to a charger. For the second test I went through some emails, played Microsoft solitaire for 20 mins, and had the keyboard backlight on, which produced the same results (after 45 minutes, I was prompted to plug it back into the charger.) For the last test, I have been trying to take some screenshots while writing this review…I’m at the 20 minute mark and I lost 40% of my battery life already ☹ Cloud Gaming: These aren’t the non-downloaded games you are looking for… I tried to use xbox cloud gaming three different times, with 3 different games and all of them were blurry/choppy, had severe input lag, and were entirely UNPLAYABLE. So, why 2 stars? Since the retail price of this laptop is $2,000, and is touted as a gaming laptop, how is it this device cannot play any games from the cloud, and no matter how you use it, you can only leave it off a charger for no more than 50 minutes before you hit critical battery drain levels? If you have a really short attention span (to stop what you are doing to run and plug this back into a charger) or if you hit it big on crypto or in the last bull market cycle on some stocks, this might be the laptop for you. If you had an expectation to play all kinds of games with this laptop or actually be able to use it for more than an hour off the charger then my suggestion is to keep looking.

    Great Performance, Great GPU, Solid Build!

    Great performance! with a solid build. My only issue is the display brightness and quality. For the price point I would have liked at least a QHD display at least 400 to 500 nits but I believe they probably downsized the RAM & screen quality to keep the costs down all while getting into the RTX 5070TI GPU. I recommend getting a higher-quality external monitor to take full advantage of the GPU's abilities. Other than that, it is a powerhouse & runs AAA games very smooth.

    I'm loving this laptop so far. Gaming performance is fantastic with this machine. The build quality is solid and it was very easy to upgrade the ram and storage. The fans are a bit loud but the temps stay relatively cool even on max settings. Its easy to change the fan profiles and make it quieter if you need. There was no bloatware at all with with the installed Windows 11 which is a dream come true. I bought this to replace my full size desktop built 4 years ago and it absolutely runs circles around it. I got this on sale at $1599 and it was an incredible value for the performance. Even at full price it seems worth it.

    Bought this just to try out if gaming laptop is for me or not but ended up loving this little machine so much that I’m keeping it instead of building a PC. The 5070 ti in this thing handles most of the games I throw at it at max settings, granted the resolution in this model is only 1200p but the screen looks fast, crispy and nice enough for me and no issues at all. The CPU is super capable as well no complaints and it compliments my he you well. Only cons I can think of is maybe how loud the fans are when you set it up to Turbo or Manual but it’s a laptop and it’s a beast for the price so not really a deal breaker for me. Upgrading the ram and ssd is super easy as well so overall, I’m super happy with this thing. Most likely last me a few years before I even think about upgrading or build another PC

    I adore this laptop. It's so beefy and can handle just about anything currently out at high settings or better, but most importantly to me it is quiet and cool. The fan system ASUS created for this beast really cuts down on noise and heat, making it very comfortable to use at home near my family. The screen is good but just good, not great. Older LED tech and it shows.

    An absolute fantastic machine. I bought it after buying the HP Victus 16.1 /w 4070 a few months back. It feels like another device completely, no chunkiness but feels sturdier, fan noise is by far lower, performance are over the top, not that I can compare - the specs here are a lot better. Also, it's a lot nicer in looks and general feel. It's the cheapest and best gaming laptop available in the world by a known brand name. I'm thinking about anything negative to say, and just can't. What a piece of technology that brings such light to a gamer+creator+local AI user's life. I can't belive I got this miracle into my life for 1600~$ after shipping and tax. Oh, also, it has a dedicated battery care feature as I don't leave home with it much, to only charge to 80% so it won't hurt the battery after two years of constant charging to 100%.

    Coming from an hp victus, this laptop is great. Its able to handle triple A games at high and even ultra settings while getting over 60fps. The screen is good for me as I’m not very picky on what screen I use as long as I can see everything and it’s very smoove. Also having a 3ms input latency is great. Battery life is what you expect from a gaming laptop. It can handle everyday tasks with a couple hours left over but most wouldn’t get a gaming laptop without trying to be plugged in during gaming sessions. Overall a great laptop that exceeded my expectations. Would definitely recommend for any gamer if a screen is not the biggest deal in the world to you

    I originally saw this laptop through an article claiming $400 off it's original price. This laptop was exactly what I was looking for, mostly because most laptops with a 5070/5070ti are at $2000. The only downside of the laptop was the miniscule 16gb of ram. That's a easy enough fix since it's not soldered to the board. The laptop runs smooth and cool with very little fan noise under the performance setting. This laptop is awesome especially if you can get it on sale!

    A True Desktop Killer - This Laptop is Insane!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    ​I absolutely love this laptop. It's a true desktop killer, or a mobile desktop—whichever way you want to look at it. I'm able to run Black Myth: Wukong at max settings with a buttery-smooth 200 FPS. The performance is just incredible. ​What's even more impressive is how well it handles the heat. While it does generate a lot of heat, which is to be expected from any high-performance gaming laptop, it never runs hot to the point of throttling. I'd still highly recommend grabbing a cooling pad to maximize performance and longevity, but this machine handles its thermals exceptionally well. ​Overall, this laptop is a 10/10. If you're looking for a portable powerhouse that can handle anything you throw at it, look no further.

    After havin it for a month, while its not the best gaming item i have had, for a gaming laptop, it does exactly what i want it to do, and honestly surprised me with the performance and is actually better than my friends desktop, not better than mine, but its actually close. While it does have some bugs every now and again, like sound skipping every now and again while gaming, and sometimes when i plug in my laptop in, it can freeze my whole screen and i have to restart the computer, but it hasent happend in a while so an update could have fixed that. all in all, it gets what i want done with work and school, and when i get the chance to plug in, im very satisfied with how it runs.

    The processor initially looks kind of a weird choice, but when you compare it performance/price-wise with the higher end model, this becomes a no-brainer. Very easy to upgrade and well built, and with the advantage that with asus there is an alternative software you can use in place of the clunky armoury crate (other brands you’re forced into using whatever proprietary crap they ship with) this becomes a superb value high end laptop gaming rig. When discounted there is no argument. The only not so good thing about it on my opinion is the screen, but still it has very acceptable image quality.

    This ASUS ROG Strix G16 is an absolute beast and exactly what I needed for my Steam library. The combination of the AMD Ryzen 9 HX and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti chews through every game I throw at it. I'm able to run demanding AAA titles like Red Dead Redemption 2 on high settings with a fantastic framerate, and it handles competitive games like DOTA 2 and FOR HONOR flawlessly, utilizing the smooth 165Hz display perfectly. The cooling system is robust, keeping the laptop performing well even during long gaming sessions. The 1TB SSD is lightning-fast, and the overall performance is outstanding. If you're looking for a serious gaming machine with a great display, stop searching and buy this one.

    I find the ASUS ROG STRIX G16 a very good gaming laptop. It has very high cuality materials (feels heavy to the touch) which for me is a good sign for a gaming laptop. The fans are powerful and silent. First time I get an AMD chip, so far I think it performs very good for all the things I do (study, gaming, streaming and rendering. Overall, I am very satified with my purchase
