32GB RAM version, 1TB NVMe.
Very good laptop for gaming, programming, and office work, which is what I use it for. On the negative side, I would mention that the screen refresh rate goes above 60Hz only when the charger is connected, otherwise it is locked at 60Hz max, and that the screen could be a bit brighter, as well as support HDR at this budget, since the panel is a classic 8-bit IPS panel. Also, for the power delivery type-c port it has (100W), for some reason Asus decided it should only be in and not out. Practically, this means that with a power delivery charger it can charge itself with up to 100W, but it cannot charge devices with more than 10W as its output is 5V@2amp. When a 3rd party PD100W+ charger is connected, the good thing is that even though the laptop notifies you that charging is slow (the factory charger is a proprietary 240W plug), the screen works normally at 165Hz and simply limits the GPU and CPU to about 75W from 110W for the GPU and 65W from 100W for the CPU. The battery does not drop in such a setup but it does not charge either, it just stays at the current percentage (all tests with a Baseus 160W PD3.1 GaN charger and all measurements on the port with an Fnirsi FNB58 meter). In gaming with full power, you will see the CPU and GPU at 80 degrees, and if you want the temperatures a bit lower, you will need a base with fans, where you can easily see a drop of about 10 degrees (70-72 degrees max), even after 5-6 hours of continuous gaming. In anything else, the laptop is not stressed at all and you will never see it exceed 50 degrees.

My previous laptop was a Lenovo Legion which I had for 10 years and it still works, it just lags a bit because of the old Windows. For me, there is nothing better than that. Zero lag and amazing for gaming (lol).
That's why I got a new laptop but I am disappointed.
It has nice graphics and colors but its brightness is very low and also from the second week of use I noticed that it suddenly shuts down and turns back on without a proper reboot (it shuts down as if it doesn't shut down properly but just loses power for a few seconds). For a new laptop, this is unacceptable. Other than that, it works fine and its battery lasts a long time, but I can't understand why it does this sudden shutdown.
I regret not getting the same brand I had before.

    let's go now, whatever I say is really not enough, with settings through Armoury Crate you can get the GPU to 115w, as for temperatures, I have it on a stand, in games like The Last of Us Part II remastered mid to high at 165 fps and my CPU is at 70-75, GPU at 65-69 and we're talking about a laptop. I have a bit of noise but honestly, I don't care at all..
    in Hogwarts Legacy high and ultra I go up to 200 fps with CPU at 65 degrees and GPU at 58-62
    very fast, very sturdy construction
    I believe that in these inches and this screen resolution it is the best there is

  • Quite a good PC, I don't think it can be compared to a desktop of course, I personally prefer laptops, it's beautiful to begin with, it has a very nice screen. I haven't tried heavy gaming yet but LOL of course runs at max graphics with 150fps, though it does get some stutters at times, I don't know why, I don't put the fans on turbo of course because it's very loud, on performance mode where I keep it it's just fine, temperatures haven't gone up with anything I've done. Since I came from a 400-500 euro laptop, the difference is huge. I am satisfied so far

  • Its pefect, silent, works like a clock, the packaging was very good, unopened box, it has an iGpu and dGPU so the battery life is really good. Gaming is also perfect.
    You can upgrade the SSD and RAM whenever you want it, 2 M2 SSD ports + 2 DDR5 Slots total, so it comes with an empty M2 port and 1 empty DDR5 slot.
    The only problem is i dont want to go to the work anymore when this beast at home :)
