I have had this laptop for 6 months now and I absolutely love it!! It handles AAA games quite reasonably. It tends to heat up some with intense gaming so I'm personally considering a cooling fan for underneath. The vividness of the screen is amazing. The fans are very quiet unless doing something intensive. Someone (CinCin) Stated that this isn't a true 16" but only 13". and also stated that the 17" is only 15". Untrue as what they measured was across when it should be measured on a diagonal. At any rate, I love ASUS, the sale deal I got on it was fantastic. It is upgradable which is really important to me. This laptop is a genuine little powerhouse. Worth every cent. I highly recommend!!!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I actually looked up what other nerds said worked good for cost and this was the winner. It's pretty great! Thanks, my fellow nerds who also despise building computers themselves!! I've been using it to play Enshrouded!Performance:I've tried multiple games and have zero complaints. This is a surprisingly sturdy laptop. I did not expect it to perform as well as it does. It can get a little hot, so I keep it on a cooled desk when playing demanding games. It's very fast and looks beautiful. I hated myself for spending so much on a laptop at first, but now I have no regrets. It actually works so well I'm migrating to it as my main computer. I haven't turned my desktop on in 3 months now.

This laptop exceeded my expectations, i got it mainly for gaming but it has turned into my main device for work, music and gaming and anything i need a computer for. I did upgrade it with 32 gb of ram and 4 extra tb of storage which was very simply by just removing the bottem plate and simply replacing the exsisting ram and adding a nvme drive to the ectra port inside, it plays new triple A titles with no issues and temps stay relatively cool. The fans are a bit loud after a while of gaming but with a set of headphones its not noticable.

My computer crashed and I wanted to get an even better replacement. This one definitely filled that need. I’m extremely happy with it. It’s super fast, easy to navigate and doesn’t overheat. One reason I wanted to buy it is the keyboard is excellent and the storage was also a big deciding factor. The speakers are pretty good too, although they probably could stand a little improvement. I have to say that I’m really impressed with it. This laptop has excellent ratings for a reason. Highly recommend it!

Great laptop! Runs games very well there’s just a couple of things that irk me. One is it runs VERY hot, you definitely need to get a cooling pad or something if you plan on laying down or anything of that sort. Second issue, and this is the big one, the screen is not bright AT ALL. Very dim even on max brightness settings. Other than that, it has ran great and handles everything I’ve thrown at it.

In love with this laptop. Laptop is of very high quality in my opinion. Its not flimsy and I think the price was just right for what it is. The design isn't bulky. The battery life depending on what you are doing last pretty long. Gives plenty of warning when running low and even tells you based on what is running how much time till it will power down if not connected to the wall. It is really quiet even when the fans are running at performance and the silent mode makes it seem like the fans aren't on at all. I have not had this laptop freeze or overheat so far! The speed is insane compared to my other laptop that is only a few years older.

I waited a year to submit a review. Bought this last year during prime sale and my son has used it daily since then for gaming and school. Too many hours a day for me to be happy about.... It has turned out to be an excellent laptop with no problems or issues. Brilliant color and has never had issues with any of the many games he plays. He is thrilled with the graphics and storage. Survived the usual bumps and drops back and forth to middle school daily. It was more expensive than I intended to pay but has turned out to be a great purchase and my son loves it.
