Great Solid Gaming and Work Laptop!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hi, if you want to read a review that calm you, this is the review. I waited a month to write this review to see if there was a problem, and so far not. I saw a lot of reviews and they are very exaggerated, in my experience is that you took a laptop that was not handled right or they ordered online and in the trip of the mail, got a lot of hits. I bought it directly on the store, so let;s beggin. I bought this laptop on black friday week, for $579.99 dllrs, but with tax, the total was around $630 dllrs. I have had on eye this laptop, I am a Teacher on elementary school, I oftenly use office software to make work, but I also like to play videogames on freetime, and this sits right for me, and the priceeeee, really good. I'm not the only that is using it, I'm a Teacher in Mexico and the kids are very curious about the new computer that the teacher bring, so too many hands using this laptop, and so far I didn't have a problem. 1. The material: Is plastic, really hard plastic, I always carry this laptop on my briefcase and i'm surprised that the trips to go from class to class or school to school don't mess with it. It's really TUF! 2. The keyboard: If you have hard hammer fingers, be careful! the buttons seems to sink a little bit, so be careful, but if you not, don't worry. The keyboard is really nice, I am writing my thesis and it is smooth to write, is nice that have a numeric pad, because I do a lot of evaluation. Doesn't sound too much like the click gaming keyboards, it is just fine for me. The colors on the keyboards are awesome, there is an armory crate software that let you choose color and dynamics, you can turn it off or put low light on it. 3. The touchpad: Some reviews said that is awful, but it is good, smooth with your fingers, only when you click it sound a lot, but it is good, I have had no problems, and if you are having problems, try to reinstall it. But for me, no problem. Recommendation, use a mouse. 4. The speakers: Very good sound, I was expecting more, but it is good playing. The only thing here is when you are playing with turbo performance on gpu, sound a lot, so it is the only problem, not bi, but if you are demanding person, you don't like it. 5. The graphics: A lot of reviews always complain about the 60 hz on screen, but it is right, I don't know where they came out that this laptop has 120 or 144 hz? The videos and movies that I watch on netflix, youtube, etc. are awesome clean and hd screen, not 4k, but I'm not a fool consumer, and it looks nice. For gaming, very awesome, good and clean graphics, you can use extreme settings and doesn't lag, very good for gaming. Vibrant colors, and it changes when you are working and gaming, very useful. 6. Battery: I always out of home, but I always carry the charger, the battery on a day using it for presentations, videos, microsoft office word, powerpoint, excel, last about 4 hrs, before charging, while playing it last 3 hrs in gpu on performance mode. So when I have freetime in school, I play a while and very good. 7. Proccesor: Really fast, open smooth and quickly my aplications, save really fast my files and open them too very fast, I was concern about the intel i5, because i was looking for an i7, but this is a beast for proccesing! 8. The memory ram: 8gb of ram, I posted a photo showing the ram that is included on this laptop, it is good. But I want it a performance ram, and with the money I have saved I really have the money to upgraded, so I wait it a month, and I Had bought a 16gb Kingston Hyper X, and OMG very fast for proccesing, doesn't lag, and I always have open a lot of windows, don't problem, so if you have the time upgrade the ram. I don't know if this avoid the warranty, I have read the terms, confused of it. 9. The Memory Storage: It has the innovative ssd, the chip PCI-e, very fast, only have 512 gb, the thing is that I have a lot of games so i need more space, and the super advantage is that has a empty ssd slot, so I have bought a WD blue ssd $65 dllrs and install it, so I am very happy, that I can have all my games install it apart from the main ssd. I post a photo of the open laptop, so you can see what it is inside. You are thinking, "This guy bought a laptop to instantly upgraded? What a fool!" But of the money that I had saved on the discount, doesn't hurt at my wallet at all. Other thing if you have low battery, the graphics seems to lag, so check the battery performance. Other thing is that you have to manually install the updates and it is hard working, I hope ASUS solve this issue. So, I hope you have a nice day, I recommend to buy this laptop, on 579.99 dllrs or on 650 dllrs, that are the discounts that I saw after bought it, so grab the specials!

Okay overall, but the monitor broke
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this laptop a month ago during Black Friday. It ran pretty good, still lagged a little on games but was okay if you played on the lowest settings. The only problem was that the monitor broke only after a month of use (not from any sort of damage only from me merely opening the laptop) Still it can be replaced and I will continue using it because I believe it’s a decent laptop, just disappointed that it was damaged so quickly and easily.

An Upgrade, for sure
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So i am upgrading from a 2011 Toshiba 2nd Gen Core i5. so my bar is set pretty low right now all things considered. Nevertheless I consider myself a little tech literate so I was able to raise my expectations by reading some comprehensive tests and reviews from what is available at the present moment (2019-2020). Having that info at hand I was able to narrow down my search (and also having a tight budget on the range of 500-750$). Finally I've picked this laptop with the Black Friday offer at 570$ and I think I was a total steal and the best Q4 2019 online deal on the range of budget gaming laptops below 800$. The specs of this setup put it on par of low 1000's or 900$ machines. I'm not a gamer but I work at home on my own graphic design projects, also do some video editing. The dedicated graphics card is on the mid range for gaming but is more than enough for these tasks I've mentioned, and the 8 threads core i5 9300H processor is bullet fast. Fearing some thermal throttling (which is very common on high TDP-tighly packed laptops with less than ideal cooling solutions) i've downloaded and installed ThrottleStop and I've performed a software controlled stable undervolting to CPU and cache. Due to the “silicon lottery” I recommend to use my values as guidelines but for those interested my undervolt values are (-129mV for both CPU and cache on the plugged to AC profile, and -138mV on both CPU and cache on the battery profile). To check for stability i've performed Passmark 9 suite tests, by the way my laptop clocked a CPU passmark score of 10050 with the undervolt values applied. Cpu temperatures lowered a LOT under 100% load, from a stock high 80-82ºC to 73ºC which is an awesome measurable improvement to internal components, thermal paste, battery life and power consumption. On the battery side, I was able to squeeze 7 hours of battery with the under-volt on light browsing and YouTube watching with the screen dimmed. The boot up time is an amazing 5-8 second from power on to a usable desktop. Keyboard is very comfortable and easy to type on it, back-light is amazing (once resolved the TUF Aura core install issue everyone talks about). I think this laptop has the best power+specs+quality/price ratio of the ASUS TUF line sold by Best Buy this year-end. Highly recommend it for computer nerds, graphic designers and content creators on a budget. You won't be disappointed.

A great laptop for casual gaming.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this laptop. The design is really cool and it looks way better in person than in photos. The build quality is quite good. The screen is nice and bright for this price point. Remember this laptop DOES NOT come with a 144 Hz screen. Its a 60Hz pannel. The keyboard is very nice. I got used to it pretty quickly. The RGB backlighting looked nice. If you don't like that you can just change its color to white and put it on static mode. I don't like the transparent WASD keys but that's not a huge deal. The touch pad is nice and responsive. The clicking mechanism is nice. But sometimes it doesn't go where I want to but I am pretty sure this is just a driver thing can be easily fixed. The performance is great. I was able to play AC Origins at high setting smoothly. It also runs very cool because of fans located at above the keyboard, at the back and underneath the laptop. You can easily control the speed at which you want the fans to run which is nice. The SSD is fast and boots up the laptop quickly. You don't need to buy extra stuff to install an HDD. It already comes with it. There is a second slot for RAM as well.

Q: QuestionIs this product refurbished?
Asked by Shsrh.
- A:Answer No it's not refurbished I called and spoke to a representative over the phone and she said it's brand new With a 1 year warranty. I even went to the store today to check it out and seeing is believing this laptop is absolutely beautiful and a steal for the price. I'm placing my order right now as we speak cause they will sell out quickly, and I certainly don't want to miss out! Remember folks this is a $849.99 laptop plus tax, the quality is excellent and comparing it to Acer, Msi, Hp, it's a beautiful looking laptop with the looks and performance of a $1,000,00 laptop and up. Trust me I come from an It background and this beauty definitely gets 5 stars you will not be disappointed!

Q: QuestionWhy can’t I find this lap top anywhere but at Best Buy?
Asked by Alley.
- A:Answer I was wondering this myself. It must be a black friday BB exclusive that has a 60hz panel unlike the model on asus official website. Hence why the price is cheaper! Still a good deal but not the same screen as the other model.
