Customers are saying

Many appreciate its lightweight design and consider it a great value for the price. However, some users have noted concerns regarding its heat generation, battery life, and fan noise. The lack of an Ethernet port is also a recurring point of feedback.

    Great Laptop: Gets Super Hot

    I have had this laptop for two year now and it still works just as well today as it did the day I bought it. I simply adore it, the only thing that sucks is how incredibly hot it gets. You 100% need to buy a high quality fan to keep it cool and it gets LOUD. You will need to play with good noise canceling headphones, but I still recommend it.

    I really like this laptop. I have a mac book pro and the screen on this was a lot better. The only problems I have with this laptop was the bluetooth on it would disconnect from my bluetooth speaker here and there sometimes and the fan is a bit loud.

    Purchased this a month ago and so far havent had ANY issues getting this thing to turn on. I recently upgraded from 16gb to 32gb 480mhz and i can see a difference in performance. The only thing i would change is battery life. It dies fairly quick after 2-3 hours the laptop dies.

    Doesn't really get much nicer than this as far as gaming laptops goes. You do however trade off some performance and battery life for the more sleek design. Can't quite get 60 FPS in Starfield on high settings but hey, that's more than the Xbox can say.

    Truly a Beast. The one and only reasonable choice of laptop for heavy duty, for the price you'll get more than you paid. This laptop can run games and edit videos very smoothly. Only con is heat, it can be so hot within matter of minutes. But it's what expected.

    First let me say i am an avid Mac user. I am also a pc technician but i dont well didnt until now use pcs for anything but troubleshooting problems. This is my first pc in 20 years outside of testing and not liking. It has the power I need for my graphic design apps and streaming but its also more than powerful enough for VR gaming which is the biggest plus, The Oculus software has some issues when you firdt get started but ince all if your drivers are updated its amazing. The picture looks AMAZING not to be 4K I honestly swore it was. It took me a day to realize there is no ethernet adapter but who cares… usbc to ethernet works great for what i need. It doesnt get super hot during gaming which i think is good but i do run it near a window so lots of air circulation. I bought mine open box so extra bonus. Half life alyx looks AMAZING on it!!!

    Overall the laptop is pretty good. Only downsides ive noticed is it tends to freeze more often than it should. And it gets extremely hot so I highly recommend buying a cooling pad.

    the updated chasis improve user experience a lot compared to last gen: finally, power cable plug has been moved so it wont block the usb, full hd camera, more rigid screen so it wont wobble when opening and closing. Performance overall is great, but the price is steep. If you are not in a hurry, get this on Black Friday instead.

    Replacement for my previous MSI gaming laptop. Good screen. Nice design. Okay keypad. Runs my games without issues on high quality graphics. Only wish it had a displayport for VR which my older laptop had.

    Я долго выбирал между игровыми ноутбуками, и остановился именно на этом, так как по моим соображениям, соотношение цены и качества тут хорошее. Отличный 2К монитор с разверсткой 240Гц, отличные динамики создающие крутой стерео звук, приятная тихая клавиатура, сам корпус сделан так что не прикопаться. Перейдем к сомому железу. Я выбирал именно видеокарту 4070, так как на мой взгляд она подходит для того чтобы играть практически во все игры в разрешении 2К, и иметь при этом 60+ кадров в секунду. Процессор тут космос, реально достигает космических скоростей, хах. Я взял версию с 16гб оперативной памяти, но вскоре после покупки сделал апгрейд, и теперь у меня стоит 32гб от того же производителя. Единственный момент с этим ноутбуком в том, что при высокой нагрузке система охлаждения начинает сильно шуметь, но этот момент касающийся всех игровых ноутбуков.

    The laptop is good, for the price. Buying a RAM upgrade makes it excellent (2x sodimm slots DDR5, BTW). Also had to make a registry edit to get the dimmable display. Not sure if that was an oob issue bc of graphics card, but took a couple hours to track down.

    A big upgrade over her previous laptop i bought her 8 years ago. Plays all new games she wants. Can be a bit noisy when running full power but most high end laptops are not quiet so. Loving it so far though might buy myself a higher spec model.

    Great gaming laptop. I run this with an external moniter for the best 240hz gaming experience. Along with the 4070 and I9, you really cant go wrong. Battery life could be better unplugged but I usually game with battery for better performace.

    Great laptop! Totally worth the money and not too heavy either given the size. Screen quality is amazing and it’s smooth as butter! This is my second ROG device and I’ll keep buying them as long as I can. Definitely would recommend!

    Great laptop, runs all games at high settings (that I've tried so far, hell let loose, the finals, tarkov), on silent or performance mode it's pretty quiet even when gaming. The keyboard isn't great, often times the game won't register me clicking anything so you have to press extra hard, it's also very tight so easy to miss click something, my 13" laptop had a bigger keyboard. It runs adobe software but if you want to to video editing you will need to upgrade the ram a bit. Unreal engine 5 runs well but crashes a lot currently, (think it is a bug with the engine and drivers not the actual laptop itself). I do recommend it this it is very nice especially for the price

    Woah amazing! First Windows laptop in a while and first gaming laptop. Love that I was able to upgrade to 64gb and add 4tb SSD. This thing is solid and fast, high performance. Amazing display. Great touchpad. So far rock solid. Killer deal.
