ROG Zephyrus G15 (2020) Ultra Slim Gaming Laptop, 15.6” 144Hz FHD, GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, AMD Ryzen 7 4800HS, 16GB DDR4, 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD, Windows 10, GA502IU-ES76

This is my first time buying a laptop with a large purpose of it being able to run high graphically demanding games well. It's daunting to analyze the various gaming pc's and laptops with their various specs because my gaming experience before hand largely came from just buying the next Playstation. I didn't really have to analyze the specs beforehand, I just knew that I wanted the next console, but with buying this gaming laptop I found myself enjoying my purchase greatly. The games I've played so far look amazing, the visuals look smooth when playing and what made transitioning a little easier was an application that was previously installed that automatically adjusted the game graphics to it's most optimal settings with the laptop's hardware. I'm enjoying this gaming laptop greatly and see myself being a fan of gaming on pc.Some things to take into account, from my research, it seems that the laptop heating up while playing high graphically demanding games seems to be a common thing and that is the case with this laptop as well. I highly recommend buying a laptop fan as well. It can also get noisy on depending what game you play, but it's not as loud as when my ps4 on it's loudest days.The only thing I would look for in a new gaming laptop, taking my experience with this gaming laptop, I would look for higher quality GPU and maybe CPU. The only reason being is because in the application I mentioned earlier that set the graphic settings automatically, I noticed for the games Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Borderlands 3 had an optimal graphic setting that was in the middle of the bar that represents the graphical quality that was being achieved. While games like Apex Legends optimal settings were automatically set to the max value. I'm new to analyzing computer specs for the purpose of gaming purposes so I'm not completely sure at this moment in time if my analysis is correct for getting a higher graphical quality, but what I can tell you for certain is that I'm enjoying what it's displaying despite it not being at max settings; it still looks glorious.Also has no camera native to the laptop. I didn't really care about this but I thought it apparent to mention because I previously thought that this was a common thing among laptops. After gaining more knowledge, I realized the case that the camera is not available is because of a lack of space for it because it's a pretty big screen and the whole thing feels pretty compact.It's also very fast on loading things up and doing general stuff. For example, it loads all the start up applications and is ready to go almost as soon as I turn it on. I believe the cause of me seeing this large change is because it has an SSD and my previous laptop had an HDD. I hope this was helpful and informative, I'm new to analyzing computer specs and weighing their pros and cons so I would double check stuff I say in this review relative to when the discussion is relating towards computer specifications.

Bought this laptop to play games. And it works great for medium and even some high configurations. GPU is good enough to run AI models on it.

Excellent product, comes in exquisite packaging an elite experience right off the bat.One of the best values for money in a gaming laptops on special, really decent processor, excellent RAM, nice 1TB SSD and a good discrete 6GB graphics card.Have read some other negative reviews on Amazon prior to buying, but have read many more positive reviews elsewhere, and I have not experienced any of the drawbacks I've seen in other reviews on Amazon.It is completely silent, fans make zero noise. Have had it on for 2 hours straight out of the box and not a degree of extra heat, cool as can be.

You cannot beat the price to performance on this laptop. The processor alone makes it standout at this price range, but WOW Asus really put together a great machine.This laptop has been nothing short of amazing for me. The reviews about fan noise are extremely overstated. If you are running a AAA game on it of course the fans are going to spin up and make a little noise.Also, the review that says the keyboard and track pad locked up on them I highly suspect they accidentally disabled them in armory crate.I’m not going to waste time restating what others have said and keep this simple.The build quality is superb. The laptop feels sturdy and the screen has minimal flex when opening with one finger from the center or either corner.The I/o is sufficient and exactly what you would want from a gaming laptop. 3 USB ports, a USB-C port, HDMI out, a full Ethernet Jack (not one that pops out), and a combined headphone/mic jack.As far as the specs go, I’ve included a screenshot of a benchmark list for common laptop CPU’s as of today 2/25/21. The Ryzen 7 4800HS is a monster. The 1660ti max-q is the equivalent of having a 1070 and both of those GPUs are more than enough to run today’s AAA games at 1080p with reasonable graphics settings. Not to mention the screen with 144hz refresh looks PHENOMENAL.One final small thing worth mentioning is the bloatware included with this system is minimal and that’s great in my opinion. Just uninstall mcafee and you are good to go if that type stuff bothers you.Overall, if you are looking for a laptop in the 1k-1100 range stop looking and buy this one. It’s worth your money.

Great laptop
