About this deal

I’m seeing some people complaining about ghosting on this screen. I don’t have the right tools to test for input lag and response time, and as far as I can tell the gaming experience was OK in the titles that I’ve tested. Nonetheless, this is something to further look into, especially if you’re interested in playing fast action games. Keep in mind that lower-tier TUF Gaming FA506 configurations might only ship with a 60 Hz panel, most likely a variation of the 60 Hz Panda LM156LF in the base FX505 models. That’s dimmer, slower and more washed out, so I’d stay away from it. Hardware and performance

Finally, gaming on battery (on Performance) is also possible. In this case, the CPU is still limited and the GPU runs at 50W. I’d recommend disabling Battery Boost in the GeForce Experience app, or at least up the default 30 fps limit. The testing regime includes the requirements of both military-grade standards and ASUS quality tests, and varies depending on device. MIL-STD-810 testing is conducted on selected ASUS products only. Note that the MIL-STD-810 testing helps to ensure the quality of ASUS products but does not indicate a particular fitness for military use. The test is performed under laboratory conditions. Any damage caused by attempts to replicate these test conditions would be considered accidental, and would not be covered by the standard ASUS warranty. Additional coverage is available with ASUS Premium Care.Gaming – Turbo– playing Far Cry 5 for 30 minutes, Turbo Profile, fans at 47-48 dB (47 dB in Armoury Crate)

The keyboard hasn’t changed much between generations, except for the redesigned arrows, which are now smaller, but also better spaced from all the keys around. Of course, AMD’s Ryzen 4000 H hardware is a major step-up from the Ryzen 3000 H in the previous generation, with an impact on both performance and efficiency, as you’ll see down below. However, the FA506 generation also improves on exterior design and ergonomics, as well as adds features and configuration options not available before on TUFs, while remaining competitively priced. It’s a good selection, and should allow you to hook up your favorite peripherals without the need of an adapter. The LAN port is especially welcome on a gaming laptop, offering as it does faster and more reliable network speeds. W (~9+ h of use) – 1080p fullscreen video on Youtube in Edge, Silent Mode, screen at 70%, Wi-Fi ON; As we mentioned at the outset of this review, what made us particularly excited about the Asus TUF A15 is its choice of components, which includes some of the latest hardware from both AMD and Nvidia.
