Unrelenting quality, perfect for gaming and work!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stunning performance. I never thought I'd own a laptop quite like this. USB 4.0 delivers 40Gb/s !!!!!! Screen is gorgeous. It does exactly what it says and delivers gaming at 165hz for 165fps without compromise. I get the excellent cooling and durability of the TUF brand.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect option for my college freshman. He loves to game and this was perfect size and price for our budget. He is also able to do school work on it. The sales person recommended this as the original one we wanted to buy was not in stock and back ordered. Thank you Best Buy.
I would recommend this to a friendGood Entry Level Gaming Laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a good entry level gaming laptop. Mostly quiet but can get loud depending on the game you're playing. I do wish that it had a way to turn on the fans, like some other laptops. Sometimes you can feel the heat but there's nothing you can do since you don't have control over the fans.

I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Screen
Freeze a lot when playing games
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Keeps freezing even on games that aren’t that graphics heavy. Freezes when you switch from the game window to a regular app. Screen flickers when refresh rate is changed to 160+fps(need to change to 60fps to remove the flickering)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Weak wifi, but amazing value
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked for $750 and best bang for the money laptop out there. There is a third m.2 slot for another ssd. I added a 1tb name ssd and replaced the wifi card ($20) with a higher quality one and its been great ever since!

I would recommend this to a friendAsus Tuff Gaming Laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent gaming computer, can handle any AAA game on the market, and handle it well! My only complaint is the speakers on this computer, they are barely there. If you are going to game I would suggest using headphones.
I would recommend this to a friendFirst Gaming laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought it would be easier to stick the memory card in. I thought there would be a slot or a place to do it myself. turns out I'm going to have to pay someone to do it for me. Other than that great little laptop.
I would recommend this to a friendoverall decent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It runs pretty smoothly as a general laptop. Game graphics look good. Nothing super outstanding. It came with starfield but it took a little fidgeting with settings to get it to play.

I would recommend this to a friendUSB c
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great device for my gaming needs! The only thing I don’t like about it is the charger and the usb-c port are on the opposite side of the laptop than where it normally is and it’s a bit awkward to plug in
I would recommend this to a friendIt's a Tuf laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm very impressed with this laptop. It has a solid construction, not flimsy. The added second NVME slot is just a bonus for expansion. It has a great display and it's fast, faster than I had expected. What brings it all home was the price for such a great package.
