You won't regret this rig

on March 24, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes

I've had this laptop for about a week now and put it under as much strain as I could and it's handled it like a champ. The first thing I did with it was put a few AAA, graphically demanding titles on it just to make sure I had purchased the right rig.

I've played Mass Effect: Andromeda, Gears of War 4, Final Fantasy XIII and XIV, along with a few others and never had my FPS drop below 90 on maximum settings (and at a 4K resolution). I've come to the conclusion that this thing will last me well into the future. I game on standard settings for the most part anyway.

The keyboard is very responsive and easy to use. I can say the same for the touchpad. Some of Asus's built in apps are kind of useless but overall there aren't many and they do have their niche uses. I like the one that'll show me CPU/GPU speeds and temperatures. Speaking of temperatures, this laptop has gotten a little warm for me to comfortably hold in my lap. That is the only reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5. A cooling pad may not be a bad idea (I've already ordered one).

All of the apps, games, and even startup happen super quick compared to my Asus G75VW I got several years ago. Of course I was only sporting a 3rd gen i7 processor and a GTX 660m with that one.

All in all, it's a really solid laptop that I expect to last me long into the future with easy portability with is 6lb weight and minimalistic exterior design which will make it easy to find a proper backpack or messenger bag for.

Also, unless you're gunning for the GTX 1080 you WILL NOT find a better built and specced laptop at this price.

There were no reviews when I bought this laptop and I hope this review will help anyone thinking of buying it.
