Great midrange laptop

This is still by far one of the better midrange gaming laptops. While the 4070 isn't that much better than the previous 3070, unless you can get a 3070 laptop for much cheaper, this would be a better bet especially since it's fairly thin. It ain't Razer laptop thin but it's thin enough.

The 4070 paired with the 1080p 165 screen easily crushes anything I throw at it with max fps. Perfect for when I'm traveling and want to do some gaming.

Been using it for a month. It’s very good and fast. I have been playing demanding game games at around 180 frames. Only modification I did was adding ram, ssd and other undervolting it. It doesn’t need the extra stuff to run games over 200fps. It’s an amazing laptop and I would recommend it.
P.s. - there is one 16gb ram soldered, you can only add one ram later on

The laptop is almost perfect, I just wish it had DDR5 for the RAM. Nonetheless, you can easily add another 16GB RAM to bring it to 32 and it’ll be a lot better. Overall, great value for $1200. I wouldn’t take it for the original listing price though (1600).

Great computer for the price. Not much in the storage department but better graphics compared to its peers. A perfectly good trade off considering how cheap external storage has gotten. Very happy with my purchase.

This computer is an incredible machine for the price. It provides great FPS for gaming and doesnt get too hot. I enjoy how the keyboard is laid out for those long hours of gaming. My preferred game is World of Warcraft and this computer allows me to raid on high settings with no lag. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a good mod range laptop if you are gaming on the go.

This laptop has the goods on paper to be a solid choice for gaming while still being quite portable. It definitely fit the bill, but I had to return it for two significant issues. The first is Asus' control software, Armoury Crate. It's really terrible, though most of its functionality can be replaced by a much lighter weight third-party application called G-Helper. The bigger problem was the HDMI port. Despite trying multiple cables and compatible displays, I could only get the laptop to output at HDMI 2.0 resolutions and refresh rates, which are 4K/60 Hz or 1440p/144 Hz. Adaptive refresh rate, aka G-Sync, also didn't work properly. Maybe it was just my unit, but this was a deal breaker.

I purchased this to replace an old Alienware Laptop. If you want it for more than a gaming laptop, don't expect amazing battery life. Otherwise, the display, and GPU can play games quite well. The laptop itself looks very nice, not to "gamery" in my opinion. But, stay close to an outlet!

Great laptop. I got it on sale and I feel like I got a great value. I upgraded the ram to 32gb and added a second 1tb hard drive for games. It has handled everything I play with ease. Eldenring, marval rivals, epic battle simulator. If you can catch it on sale which seems to happen once in a while you should grab one.

2023 model surpasses my expectations

I was on the fence about purchasing the prior year model but after research, I couldn’t be happier. An additional m.2 ssd slot along with expandable memory?! A 30 dollar stick of matching ram has this system up to 32 gb. The processor is adequate but the star of the show is the beefy rtx4070. I see this as a solid future proofed all around system capable of graphics intensive tasks including solid gaming. At almost half price of the 2024 model that is t as upgradable. Win

Smaller than most gaming laptops which makes it practical for office work when you're out and about; however, if you're ever in the mood to game.. it packs a punch with over 100 fps on almost every game you'd want to play.

Excellent laptop for the price. Very good performance from a thin device. Feels elegant and can run most games on high or ultra on pretty nice fps.
Beautiful LED almost comparable to my oled tv.
My first laptop in years and outperforms my MacBook in all ways. I am satisfied with the purchase!

Works well. I had issues with the wifi connecting because I was using a vpn which is odd. I should be able to connect with a vpn....that's the point. It drops. But otherwise it works for what I need it.
