The gameplay itself was good. I played overwatch 2 on it , fps was good , image quality of the game was good. However the computer got extremely hot. Way too hot. I put my hands on the top where the screen and functions keys are , and you actually feel burn in your hands. Had to return it.

Brand response from ASUS Answers
Posted .
Dear MisterJay,
We are sorry to hear about the overheating issues you are having with this model. There's a possibility that there are background apps and Windows updates causing the unit to perform as it does. What we've observed with the Windows 10 operating system is that once the unit is not being used all background and installed apps including Windows updates will fire up and check for and install updates. This will cause the unit to run a bit hotter than normal and in turn ramp up the fan speed. We would recommend that the user check for and install all updates for all installed applications. Also check for Windows updates and make sure they're installed. multiple restarts are recommended to ensure all updates are installed. For more information send us an email at [email protected] and provide the link of this review for reference. We’ll do our best to provide a quick resolution to your case. Your feedback is important as it helps with improvements to ASUS Support channels. Thank you for choosing ASUS.
Best Regards, Joan ASUS Customer Loyalty US Support

Don't waste money on this laptop

Don't buy it. It's the most garbage laptop I ever use.
Issue1:
The issue comes after one year of usage. First, it will restart every 5-10min. I thought it was a system issue. It's been fixed after I adjusted the sleep time of Windows 11.
Issue2:
It can't recognize my 2t kc3000 SSD. I thought the SSD died but it runs fine on my sdd m2 enclosure. There's some severe PCB design issues that this laptop can't regonize my 2tssd.
Issue3:
The fan they use is garbage. It will vibrate and make a huge noise. It's even louder than the enhanced fan noise!! I even changed the fan twice because the second new fan had the same issue. Then, I bought a 3rd fan from another brand to fix it.
Issue 4: The most severe issue!!!!
The most disguising issue is that it showed the first issue again but worse. The laptop starts to show a blue screen and restarts about 1-15mins. I even rebuild the whole system twice. Now, things are better but the problem still exists: it will restart about 30min-1hour each time. Originally, I thought it was the Windows 11 issue. But the problem still exists after 2 times of rebuilding the system. There's just something wrong with the motherboard PCB design!!! I'm so annoyed about this.

Runs HOT when gaming! nVidia? Needs a cooling pad when gaming! Otherwise, it's ASUS quality!
