ASUS TUF FX705DT 17.3 Inch Full HD IPS Thin Bezel Gaming Laptop (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, 4 GB Graphics, AMD Ryzen R5-3550H Quad-Core Processor, 512 GB PCI-e SSD, 8 GB RAM, Windows 10)

Back lighting on my screen is not perfect. I have one light stronger than the others on the bottom left of the screen but can live with it. You can turn the contrast up and pretty much get rid of it.I’ve linked it up to an LG 34 inch gaming monitor and it’s amazing. This laptop is an absolute bargain.It is lightweight too.I did a lot of research before I purchased this laptop and I am not disappointed.I moved from an Apple laptop MacBook Pro.What is cool is that when you plug in an external keyboard - when you turn on number lock it also activated the laptop number keypad.I went on YouTube and easily upgraded the ram to 16gb ram which is recommended. I can’t say it was hugely different to having 8gb ram and the laptop is not significantly quieter either so I will probably upgrade to 32gb in a few months.I find the laptop is quiet loud but the fan control works well.The fact you can upgrade the laptop so easily really is a huge bonus.At the end of the day, it truly is a bargain for the money!

Glad I had choosen this laptop after a few weeks of deciding which one suits my needs best. It comes with 8gb of ram but its really not enough, buy more if you can. I upgraded to 32gb. Games fly along, quick loading, durable, and encodes video files in no time at all. Its not very slim or portable, but being a replacement desktop gaming rig, its ideal. Well worth the money. Battery life does drain very quickly and could be better, only gripe really. With full 1080p clear screen support in a 15.6" screen you cant go wrong. Highly recommended product.

Great all round PC - really strong and even had a spare 3.5” drive slot to expand storage.While I only do some light gaming - I have big,memory heavy spreadsheets for my job and this tackles them with ease! The power brick is much more kilowatts than the battery in the laptop meaning the battery charges quickly even under load. You may not have an “all day battery” but I’d take this set up over that any day if I’m honest. Most trains have plug sockets and after using this in a 2hr train journey with no issues I cannot see myself being hampered with the “compromises” that are usually present in a gaming laptop. The Aura keyboard is great, would like a little more customisation but at this price point it’s great that it has an RGB keyboard!The two weak points of this laptop are;- connection ports (need a couple more really) - however they are sensibly placed so that’s also a plus.- touchpad is a big laggy at times - I think it’s the coating if I’m honest - sometimes it misses inputs but it doesn’t happen often and these are the only reasons it’s not a 5 star review.Great laptop though and fantastic value!

I will say something honest: for the price it’s a pretty decent gaming laptop as well for other task or works I love the keyboard and the lights specially because you can change it on the ASUS TUF CORE app. It is like the multi tool of the laptops (RAM. Mother board and graphic card) working really well with games in medium or high quality graphic details. An example of it: company of heroes 2 higher resolution, textures graphics, etc. Works well. But if you want THE GAMING LAPTOP so be ready to spend at least 1400-1500£.

The laptop for gaming is excellent. Very fast. Very quiet and looks very nice with the lights changing colour ect. However after two weeks I had hardware issue where I couldn’t only see half of my screen due to problems with the hover board

Top machine for price I have the Ryzen 5 with gtx 1650 and 8gb of ram. Opening it up (DIFFERENT length screws so note which goes where before removing screws or could be damaged), then just a plastic lever to push apart the two halfs. I put in a 2.5 inch 7mm Western Digital SSD 1Tb drive which just slots in. The laptop is funniliy enough supplied with the ssd screws, I could only get 2 in. It is enabled in the Bios but you have to go to Disk Management in Windows- type disk management on the start button, and follow pop prompts. Then you can right click after on the drive in the file folder screen and click format. Can also put in a 8gb 2666mhz Hynix sodimm ram stick for another 8gb of ram. Download tuf aura core app from asus store to fix the keyboard colour, set to static and select colour from the range.

Hello want to say that this laptop is extremely good after I bought it next day I upgraded it to 32gb ddr4 memory and a 2tb hard drive. The performance is very good on this laptop and it's got a very efficient cooling system while paying any game at the highest settings it never went above 75 degrees Celsius so very very good cooling I recommend this laptop but recommend also to upgrade it after buying to take advantage of it's maximum performance. I used Kingston hyper X 32gb (16+16) and a 2tb Seagate firecuda gaming sshd.

I wanted a laptop that I would be able to continue coding and working in Unity Engine if I was away from my main Desktop so went for this laptop. I upgraded the ram from 8gb to 16gb and also added a 2.5 inch Hard drive.This machine not only allows me to continue working in Unity Engine, but I have also been able to play VR games with my Quest 2 linked. If I use the link cable it all runs smooth, although for wireless PCVR games I would need to run VR Desktop as the Quests Airlink does not work at this time. I have been able to run the following non VR AND VR games on this laptop:Elite Dangerous Odyssey (High to Ultra Settings)No Mans Sky (High Settings)SimplePlanes VRVTOL VRVermillion VRSkyrim both VR + Non VRBlade & ScorceryVR RegattaVR ChatAltspaceVREuro Truck Simulator 2 (VR + non VR)Sometimes I will run into a few issues but it means tweaking the graphics settings. Seeing as this is not my main computer I use for VR I am quite impressed as this has opened up PCVR Gaming when im away from home as well as being able to get on with Unity Projects.I do advise you upgrade the Ram though!!
