    "I bought this laptop in open box and it didn't include the charger. Nonetheless, I use it with power through the DP port since Thunderbolt doesn't charge. It's a great device, though I haven't used it at its maximum power yet; even at 100 watts, it heats up a lot."

    I enjoy this laptop. The keyboard, touchpad, and exterior texture are super comfortable to work with. Noise is minimum when doing academic work, but it gets noticeable when gaming. However, the decibels are still neglectable since my dorm is always loud lol.

    It’s a great value. Specially when it’s $999. But my specific modele is plagued by Asus or windows software issues. Sometimes the windows menu disappears. There’s no sound, the display doesn’t let me change the brightness, or the laptop is just frozen at the starting screen. I have to restart it only to end up with a different glitch. Still a buy if you can deal with glitches and driver issues as you encounter them.

    Best deal for most gamers

    At just under $1,000, this laptop is probably the best deal for most folks wanting to get involved in computer gaming. I bought mine a few months ago at the $999 sale price and have thoroughly enjoyed gaming on it more than any of my previous gaming laptops, including older Alienware, Eluktronics, and Gigabyte models. The Asus feels solid, runs everything I have well, and I was able to add a 2TB SSD and upgrade the RAM to 64GB easily. I'm not a huge fan of Armoury Crate, and I know others would want a 13th gen processor, DDR5 RAM, or a higher nit screen. I can honestly say, I am extremely okay with those concessions for this price, and I am very satisfied with my purchase.

    Gaming laptop

    I recently purchased the [insert laptop model name] from Best Buy, and after a few weeks of use, I'm pretty impressed with its overall performance, especially for gaming.Performance: The laptop packs a punch with its [insert CPU model] and [insert GPU model]. Whether I'm playing the latest AAA titles or multitasking with multiple applications, the machine handles it all without breaking a sweat. The fast SSD ensures quick load times, and the ample RAM makes sure there’s no lag, even when running memory-intensive games.Display: The [insert display size] display is stunning with vibrant colors and crisp details. The high refresh rate of [insert refresh rate] really enhances the gaming experience, making fast-paced games incredibly smooth. However, I did notice that the color accuracy could be slightly better, especially for those who might want to use this laptop for content creation alongside gaming.Build Quality: The build quality is solid, with a durable chassis that feels premium. The keyboard is comfortable to type on, with customizable RGB lighting that adds a nice touch for gaming in low light. The only downside is that the laptop is slightly bulky, which can make it less portable compared to some of the thinner gaming laptops on the market.Battery Life: Battery life is decent for a gaming laptop. On average, I get about 4-5 hours of light use (browsing, streaming, etc.), but this drops significantly when gaming. It’s something to keep in mind if you plan to game on the go often.Cooling: The cooling system does a good job of keeping the temperatures in check during intense gaming sessions. However, the fans can get quite loud under heavy load, which might be distracting for some users.Price: While the laptop is on the pricier side, I feel like it offers good value for the performance and features it provides. Best Buy also offered a great financing option, making it more affordable over time.

    You wont find a laptop with a 4070 any time soon for this price. The laptop has nice accurate color, upper economy class build quality, and a spacious amount of hard drive space to boot! I upgraded the ram to 32 gb, and added in a second 2 tb nvme to complete this laptop as the powerhouse that it is. I can play all my games on it with high framerates. I can even charge the laptop through 100W USB-C and slow the battery drain while gaming on the go. Armoury Crate is a great app that helps you manage the performance of the laptop to get high game performance, or eco mode for long life on battery.

    ASUS TUF F15 12th Gen i7 RTX 4070

    This is a great gaming laptop for the price. A 12th gen i7 and RTX 4070 (140W) is great mid range laptop for up 1440p. On titles with DLSS3 even better. Now getting it at $999 on special is a steal. Which is how I got it. With the money saved with the special price I added a 2TB 980 Pro and 64GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR4 and it is a beast. If you are into AI this thing rocks for text to image generation and with 64GB of RAM it will handle almost any LLM you decide to run. I am primarily a Mac user and all my devices are Apple however if you are working with AI for development this thing has no contender at the $999 price point. Bottom is easily accessible for upgrades. 2 PCIE4 Nvme slots and 2 DDR4 slots (up to 64GB) are just a few screws away. Also very accessible for cleaning the fans from dust, if you use it in a dusty environment. There is very little flex on the body, The keyboard is not great, the number pad is a bit cramped however it was very easy getting used to it. I love the Touchpad, coming from an Apple device and working both on a Mac and the Asus daily I feel no disadvantage to the Touchpad on this laptop. It is silky smooth and very precise with almost no drifting at all. The screen is 1080p and that takes a little getting used to. However, colors are decent but, brightness leaves a little to be desired coming from from a Retina screen. This is a great buy whether it is for work or for entertainment. Even better if you can grab it while on special pricing. MSFS, AC Mirage, Forza Motorsport, Starfield, Cyberpunk all run excellent at Very High / Ultra. Battery life is decent if browsing or streaming however, for gaming you want to be plugged in. I hope someone finds this review helpful if they are undecided about this laptop.
