Nice computer, easy to set up and great for playing games. Haven’t experienced any lag so far am enjoying it thorough. A fast computer with extreme good display for a laptop, though a bit pricey.

This thing is a powerhouse that doesn’t overheat. I like the quick fan mode selection. The fans at full speed work great but can be loud. The display is the only thing that I believe could be better

Works like a dream, no issues so far and its been almost 2 months. I bought it for my son, even played on it myself and really love the quality of graphics and smoothness of operation of this laptop pc.
I do wish it had a number pad and a screen option to up to 17" but besides those small cosmetic preferences I love it.

Works great and is able to play recent games very well. Certainly more of a portable desktop than anything, but it does have some power saving features built in.

Upgraded with 32gb of Kingston ram and a Samsung 990 pro 2 tb in the second m2 slot and it plays games great. Happy with my purchase so far. Stays cool without being overly loud.

I needed a new laptop, but also wanted to be able to play some of my steam games. For the price and power this was a great purchase. It does not disappoint. My kids can play truck simulator with few issues with lag on ultra high settings. Rated battery as OK - it eats power for the performance. Speed and display are good for the price. If you want better, you'll have to pay for it.

This gaming laptop is awesome. Games run super smooth with great graphics, and I haven’t had any lag issues at all. The screen looks really clean and the high refresh rate makes a big difference, especially in fast-paced games. It loads fast, stays cool during long sessions, and the keyboard feels nice to use. It’s powerful and reliable. Definitely worth it if you’re into gaming.

Picked it up on sale and this little beast does not disappoint. It's a great choice for any gamer on the go. The screen looks crisp, it didn't get ridiculously hot like most laptops I've owned, even with the fan noise under control. It's the prefect little compliment for when I'm away from my desktop when traveling. This thing has yet to disappoint.

Powerful laptop with great gaming capability. Gets hot during gaming, and the fans can get loud also, but that's to be expected. Build quality is solid and the RAM and storage can be upgraded easily. If you're looking for a powerful laptop that will last a few years, this is a good choice.

The ASUS ROG Strix G16 is a pretty good gaming laptop that works pretty well. The performance of the Ryzen 9 CPU and the RTX 5070 Ti is AMAZING for gaming and multitasking. :) The build quality is also quite solid for a laptop.
BUT!! I have had some problems with the laptop's stability. It crashes a lot when changing display modes and something due with the battery, when I plug it in it sometimes hates that so it crashes, i actually had my first one replaced, but it still does it here and there, so it might been a hardware issue sadly. These issues do not occur all the time but quite often enough to be annoyed about it, more so for a $2000 laptop. :(
It is a good laptop, I don't think it's easy to break but the crashing and bug issues hold back the laptop, but i still would recommend Asus. their software on the other hand? maybe not, and maybe just upgrade the ram and such later down the line. of course, when the prices are not insane.

works great and better customer service when I walked into the store to pick it up. They didn't have it on the floor but the warehouse employee was super chill and went and grabbed it for me. I've played anything as little as hearthstone and as big as Helldivers 2, and the finals and it works great.

It is a really good laptop, but a brick. Very heavy to lug around as a laptop. GPU is great, 12VRAM, upgradable RAM and SSD, screen is also really great, but IPS. The keyboard is good, but the backlight is kind of a lot and sometimes you cannot see. Specs are really good for a price point on sale. Personally ended up returning because I felt it was to much to lug around, the battery life is not good at all for non gamming, and constantly felt like I was searching for a outlet to add on top of that the charger is heavy so its like heavy laptop heavy charger always trying to lug around defeated the portability purpose for me with a laptop, and I already have a nice desktop. Main takeaway.. IF you are looking to use this as your primary setup, as in docking it on your desk to your monitors, this laptop is solid for specs, reliability, and price point among the competition.

Awesome laptop. Punched thru every game I played at very high FPS. Yet it only has 300 nits which using great for outdoor use. Also paying over 2k for a gaming laptop and receiving such a weak screen just doesn't cut it so I returned. Such a shame. But if you can ignore the screen you have a solid gannv laptop
