Very powerful and priced right.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lets start by saying I went through 3 laptops before settling on this one. Alienware M16 R2, Lenovo, and HP all running i7 or 7 ultra with 4070. Every one had 25 updates. The Lenovo took forever to update. Needless to say they all got returned within 48 hours of ownership. Was about to give up all together but said why not. ASUS is what my dad had before and it served well back in the early 2000s. So i got home and plugged it in. Set it up and only 10 updates needed. Figured it would take a while. Maybe 4 minutes and the laptop was up to date with egerything including the drivers. I was impressed. Restarted it thinking it would be like the alienware take forever to load up, but no. Maybe 20 seconds and was already opening tabs and documents. Im giving this a 5 star for sure. I also like the fact it has a very sturdy screen, dedicated number pad, two usb c ports, ethernet port, and can be upgraded in both Ram and storage. The ram and storage upgrades are huge. Not many other laptops allow storage upgrade compatibility. Just recommend getting on sale and you will have a favorite for sure.

Only makes sense for the tightest of budgets
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been playing primarily on consoles for long time, so I’m ok not being on the leading edge of performance, but I do value consistency and being able to expect things to work the way they are supposed to. This is my third attempt with an ASUS gaming laptop, between expensive, midrange, and now budget with this one. In my testing the performance was surprisingly good in some cases and surprisingly bad in others. CP2077 was actually playable at 30-40 fps at ultra settings with ray tracing, but then I turned around and tried out Overwatch and somehow couldn’t break 100 fps even in low settings. Leaves me with no idea what to expect with other games. Bluetooth was frequently losing connections. A few times, after walking away for awhile, I came back to find the screen off, completely unresponsive, and fans blowing at 100% needing to power off to recover. I would be using this for work as well, so I can’t have nonsense like that happening to me at random times. If you can get this on sale you might be getting more than your money’s worth depending on what you play (and maybe luck?) but I just don’t have the patience for all the shenanigans anymore. For me, ASUS just isn’t worth the hassle. Going to return this and try one of the domestic brands and hope things go better.

Good overall
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this for about a month, and overall it's been a good upgrade from my previous laptop. The only downsides I've experienced thus far is that it is VERY heavy (surprisingly so), and the battery life isn't as good as I was hoping for as I feel it drains pretty quickly. It's also not a touchscreen, if anyone else was looking for that and missed that in the item description! But it looks and runs well

Works well so far.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a gaming laptop since my son had taken over my built pc. I was looking for a solid laptop with good specs and within budget. This is a pretty good laptop. It runs games well like God of War, Manor Lords, and the Sims 4. No issues so far. The screen looks nice for 1080 and the refresh rate is really good. If you are looking for a good gaming laprop on a budget I highly recommend this laptop.

Great Laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am really enjoying my new laptop. I like the ease of typing and the quickness of playing games. The only thing I am struggling with is that sometimes the sound is very low and it is turned all the way up. Not use if that is a YouTube thing or a computer thing, but I didn't seem to have that issue on my old laptop.

Honest Opinion.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly, very solid build of a laptop. Extremely quiet, easy to use and whenever I game on it it's relevantly quiet and could take most AAA games pretty well. I played resident evil 3 remake on it with all settings pretty much makes out and I was getting 150 fps with no fps drop.

Amazing preformance and sleek design
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery life is exelent, I recently got this to use for college and not only does it perform great but it has a very casual "non gamer-y" look to it that i really like for use in public. Performs great in all the games I play and works great as a pc replacement as I just had to get rid of mine. I highly reccomend this laptop
