I would recommend this to a friend False Advertising
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased as 'Used - Excellent Condition'. Arrived missing parts, dirty, and with a prominent dent in the cover. Bestbuy refused to do an exchange for an equivalent item, even though this is blatantly not the condition I ordered according to their own rating system. Not only that, but the device had been owned for FOUR months previously, taking a significant chunk out of the manufacturers warranty --- which took forever to reset under my own name, For my trouble, Bestbuy did offer a giftcard (which allowed me to upgrade some components) and did a quick check / cleaning on the device, which is better than nothing.

Unexpected stuttering?!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a negative surprise - few years ago I had a G14 with all AMD and that one worked well, so when this TUF went on sale for just $599 open-box I though it is a great deal. However, it stutters in games where 4060 works just fine. It runs a bit hot, but no more than other gaming laptops. It struggles even at 1080p using the laptop screen, and is more evident at 1440p external monitor both HDMI and usb-c to display port. After the 45 min gaming session with F1 2024 it crashed with a message from AMD Radeon software that driver is disconnected from the hardware?! Disappointed. In local LLM tasks works well Meta Llama 3.1 8b parameters and a famous "write me a thousand word story" ends with respectable 42 tokens/s using the rx7700s (vs. cpu only 5.6 t/s, apple M4 does 18.6 t/s) Did not try longer LLM / RAG workloads.

Posted .Dear Dragandi,
Thank you for your comment.
We do understand your disappointment with the laptop and the inconvenience this may have caused if you are experiencing stutters while gaming. To resolve the problem, please check if the laptop is running with the most current AMD chipset and audio driver, and BIOS. Updates for this laptop are posted at: https://www.asus.com/laptops/for-gaming/tuf-gaming/asus-tuf-gaming-a16-advantage-edition-2023/helpdesk_download?model2Name=FA617NT . Keeping the laptop updated will maintain optimum system stability and performance. Additionally, while accessing cloud games, please ensure the unit has access to an established router and internet service is working properly since poor and unstable internet connection will definitely affect system speed and performance, and may cause stuttering while gaming. If these steps were performed to no avail, please try to run a diagnostics or optimization test using the "My ASUS" utility software or application. If this is not pre-installed on the laptop, please download the application at the Microsoft Store. For details on how to use "My ASUS", please go to: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1041686/.
If you need further assistance with the laptop please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.
Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.
Regards,
