Perfect Budget Gaming Laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome laptop. Runs anything I want it to whilst also using it for business too. The screen’s colors are a tad bit washed out in comparison to desktop monitors that run 144hz, and the battery isn’t perfect (what do you expect for a high powered gaming laptop?), but it gets the job done perfectly and at a decent budget.

A Powerful Large Screen Laptop at a Good Price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked great right out of the box! It opened large CAD files in less than a minute that would take my old laptop hours! The display is large and vivid enough for my purposes and and videos seem quite clear. I don't really use it for gaming. I use house power so I can't say much about the battery.

ASUS TUG F17
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not very high end. but after upgrading the ram to 16gb and replaced the 500gb nvme with two SK hynix 1tb nvme this isn't bad. I could of waited and waited for pc components to go down in price or stocked. All well this machine is well maintained and upgraded for an easy sellable product in the future.

Solid machine for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice hardware package for the price. Nice crisp screen. Solid upgrade from a 5+ year old Dell. Fairly simple to add RAM and M.2 SSD. Totally silent under normal use (video streaming, web surfing) and still pretty quiet with the fans on while gaming. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase.

Not perfect but I love it
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.On the most part its pretty good. It does glitch sometimes but its partly linked to apps. My manage issue is the battery, it dies quickly. Especially if I am on Zoom. I'd say if on zoom it lasts an hour. Otherwise maybe roughly 5 hours.

I dunno about this one
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a couple of blue screens with this laptop, and my wifi stop being recognized. So I returned it and got another one. Day two of having the second laptop I had another blue screen which left a message saying I needed to update windows again something didn’t install correctly and the my asus program said there was a problem with WiFi . After I reinstalled , everything seems to be stable. Crossing my fingers it stays that way. The battery life on this laptop is not very good either.I charged to 100 percent unplugged it and it said I had like less then 2 hrs left. I don’t mind this personally because I stay close to the charger and probably most buying this laptop will to. It’s pretty good size so traveling with this will probably be short distances. I like the look of it and I also like the ability to upgrade if you want. 512gb isn’t much for a gaming laptop so I could see an upgrade to that and the ram as well in the future.As far as performance I’ve only played Guild Wars 2 on it so far. It runs it pretty smooth but in congested areas it struggles, I play it on whatever the default is or recommended settings. I’m not sure what the FPS is but it seems stable, and I don’t notice stuttering other than in congested areas. Would I recommend this I can’t say I would, at this point. I have had a lot issues with it,so this has been frustrating and disappointing. If you can get a problem free one it’s probably an awesome laptop just not really my experience. Hoping I don’t have anymore problems.

Beginners gaming laptop

Use it primarily for work and occasional game play. If your picky about the graphics, will probably have to buy something pricier

can fit an SSD w/ large heatsink in 2nd m2 slot
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was adding a second m2 SSD and I noticed there was a decent amount of clearance above and around the drive, and that gave me an idea.... I fished out my gigabyte aorus ssd heatsink and sure enough, it fits, no problem!!! Very cool. I found that the software was a little buggered out of the box and got much worse after I took the w11 update.... to Fix: 1. I reset windows 11, deleting all apps, 2. went into Chrome/Edge and DISABLED hardware acceleration (was causing screen glitches), 3. Uninstalled armory crate (was causing headaches with changing powerstates. The auto gpu mode is also buggy. At least for now, let windows 11 manage this stuff) ^i saw a 50% boost in Time Spy cpu score after those steps.

Great Laptop for gamers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has been a couple of months and my laptop is running great! The only complaint I have about it is that it is too big to carry around all the time. But besides that it runs my games very well

Great performance, battery life left to be desired
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Laptop is great, graphics card handles AAA games well. The battery life is okay could be better if it had a larger battery considering the 144hz display

A great starting device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was my first ever purchase of a laptop and I am not disappointed. Its a great choice if you're just starting out as a pc gamer like me. It can run all if not most of the modern games really well on low - medium settings. The one issue is it doesn't come with a CD reader, so you can only run digitally downloaded applications. Another small issue is that at least 4/8 GB of RAM are always in use from all the background applications. Don't know if I'm missing something to save some memory but that's my experience. Recommend 99% if you're shopping on this site.
