A Powerful Machine for Players
The first thing that caught my attention was the robust and attractive design of the laptop. The quality construction is evident from the moment you take it out of the box. The aluminum chassis gives it a premium feel, and the details on the RGB backlit keyboard are simply stunning. The 15.6-inch screen is sharp and vibrant, providing an immersive viewing experience.In terms of performance, this laptop is no slouch. Equipped with a powerful Intel Core i7 processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics card, it handles the most demanding games with ease. I’ve tried AAA titles and online multiplayer games, and the fluidity and quality of the graphics are exceptional. The loading speed is fast, and the system’s responsiveness is remarkable, which significantly improves the gaming experience.Refrigeration is another strong point. The dual cooling system keeps temperatures under control even during intensive gaming sessions, helping to avoid the dreaded throttling and ensuring consistent performance over time.The battery life is surprising for a gaming laptop. Although I didn’t expect it to last long due to the powerful hardware, the ASUS TUF Gaming F15 exceeded my expectations. I can enjoy several hours of gaming before having to look for an outlet, which is a big plus for those who carry their laptop everywhere.As for storage, the combination of SSD and HDD offers the best of both worlds: fast boot speed and plenty of storage capacity for games, files, and programs.

Just Buy it (v. 2024)
So glad I got this. I didn’t need it for anything intense, this is a casual personal laptop, I’m not bitcoin mining or running enormous spreadsheets. Mostly just watching youtube and doing a bunch of Zoom meetings. After setting up windows 11 and making sure the laptop was generally functional, I upgraded the RAM to 32GB which resolved some initial slowness. With 8GB of RAM out of the box it was running at 66% usage. For a new laptop that’s not good, but not a problem for me. If I was going to upgrade RAM anyway, I’m glad it only came with 8GB. Saved me money in the end.After updating windows, updating the drivers, and updating the BIOS, this thing is better than what I could have hoped for. Battery life seems acceptable and the keyboard is actually RGB, which I didn’t realize. I thought it was just going to be a static white keyboard backlight, so the colors were a pleasant surprise.I haven’t tested the gaming capabilities yet. I am not expecting it to run something like Helldivers II, but I could easily play Skyrim with the higher resolution graphics. Will update this review once I test gaming but, 10/10 if you need a practical and reliable laptop that will likely last you a long time.Edit: It runs Helldivers II seamlessly, no lag, fantastic rendering. Buy it.

Great entry level gaming laptop
Let me preface by saying the last time I purchased a new laptop was in 2005 (Acer Aspire 3000) and while tablets are nice for on the go, my digital life was a hot mess. I needed something that wasn’t wafer thin flimsy and that didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I am by no means a gamer, nor do I play PC games but I was still looking for a laptop that had some heft to it. I stumbled across this one mainly because it was suggested by amazon and the price seemed right even though its a 2021 model. After reading reviews and comparing bewteen this and the similar price/spec Acer Nitro, I chose this one because upgrading the RAM and adding an additional SSD drive wouldn’t require a doctorate in computer science.As far as upgrades are concerned I also purchased the crucial 64GB (2x32gb) set as well as a 2TB Crucial NVMe SSD drive when I ordered this as mentioned by an earlier reviewer. The install took all of 10 minutes to pop the back cover off and slip in the new RAM/SSD modules and I was ready to fire this baby up. I figured I would just max the RAM (64GB) and beef up the storage and be done with it so opening the back cover wouldn’t be necessary any time soon.Initial setup was pretty straightforward with Windows 11 and once I got to the home screen I got into the settings and performed all the necessary windows updates as well as the updates for the bundled Asus graphics software. Aside from the McAfee antivirus and the Microsoft 365 trial programs, there was no other bloatware to be found. Once those were uninstalled I was able to customize settings to my liking.The laptop comes as advertised, I wasn’t expecting 15 USB ports on this nor do I require that many. The keyboard is very nice and is a full size with a slightly smaller than normal 10 key number pad. Keys are nice and clicky, not mechanical but also not a mushy membrane either. The backlit keys are a nice touch and can be customised to your liking as long as it’s all the same color. It has about four different modes for pulsing lights or strobe or just on always. The trackpad is great and has the physical right and left mouse buttons and it is mostly centered so you dont brush the trackpad when typing.Out of curiousity I tried the online benchmark test to see how this machine ranked, and surprisingly with the RAM upgrade it ranked in the 92 percentile range (see photos) and the graphics were very smooth ranging anywhere from high 60’s to 130 FPS on ultra settings.As mentioned I am not a PC gamer but hopefully this information will be helpful for those that do partake. I may run some console emulators at some point, but for now I’ll just be enjoying the soft glow from the keyboard lighting.

Good Price and fast delivery
Its a fast PC for the price. I am going to purchase more Ram as 8gb isn’t quite enough. Other than that I like the extra ssd slot, and the durability.. Over all glad I made the purchasr

Perfect
This laptop runs very fast, I can play all the games I like with no issue. I am not a big gamer but it runs The Sims 2, The Sims 4, Wizard101, Dreamlight Valley, and Stardew Valley perfectly on high settings. I mainly use it for those games as well as being a youtube machine. I do all my homework on it as well and I have not had any issues running my various Microsoft products, photoshop, or video editing software. I’ve owned the laptop for 6 months at this point. I think this laptop is a great value. The battery life is not great but gaming laptops usually aren’t. I can get maybe 2-3 hours use not charging. It is very portable though, easily fits in my backpack along with the charger.

Gran equipo, sobre saliente el programa que desconecta la baterÃa para garantizar más vida a la baterÃa. Sin duda una gran compra a meses de haberla adquirido.

Creo que ha sido una gran compra pues la relación calidad precio tienes una computadora decente que por lo menos, no se traba. No uso software de diseño, pero si estadÃstico que también requiere de muchas operaciones por segundo y hasta ahora,se ha portado bien.También le he instalado un par de mis juegos favoritos de Steam y se ha portado bien. Se puede jugar sin problemas.Y como recomendación, si pueden invertirle 7n poco más para expandirle la memoria, que aguanta hasta 32 Gb, y añadirle un Segu do disco duro M.2, no duden en hacerlo. Mejore su desempeño y después de haberle añadido memoria y disco, su desempeño mejoró. No diré que es como de pelÃcula, pero ya se puede trabajar bien.El único problema que le veo, es el acabado, que siempre hay que limpiarla porque se nota cuando la tomas, porque se queda la grasa de las manos

Después de un mes de uso puedo decir que es un excelente equipo, tenÃa mis dudas respecto al procesador, pero aun con los 8â¯GB de RAM con los que viene, puede correr juegos AAA sin problema.Lo que definió mi decisión por este equipo, es su opción modular, puedes ampliar la RAM hasta 64 y tiene 2 ranuras para SSD M2, lo cual ayuda a que se mantenga vigente mucho tiempo.El único detalle que tiene, que es entendible, es la duración de la baterÃa, si quieres un rendimiento óptimo para juegos debe de estar conectada a la corriente, ya que activa el modo turbo, pero en modo performance puede correr bastante bien 1 o 2 horas.En conclusión, magnÃfico equipo en relación precio desempeño.
