What about using this computer with Fusion 360 for cad/cam work? How long it takes to simulate complicated 3d carving for example. Could you test it with something else or just gaming?
It would be very helpful I think

I was debating on selling my GE66 2070 Super for this as Micro Center is selling on sale but after seeing this review, Pass. 8-15% better in Witcher 3 vs 2070 and I have 2070 Super 115w which makes gap even smaller. Looks like with Turing the only major upgrades for me was on desktop side.

QuoteOur main point of criticism is the modest connectivity: With only one USB-C port that supports DisplayPort and Power Delivery and no webcam or SD card reader, it's pretty minimalistic - especially since no docking station can be connected due to the absence of a Thunderbolt port.

Why do you claim that no docking station can be connected? From my understanding, there are many non-Thunderbolt USB-C docking stations. Is there any reason why they would not work with this model? I've never had such a docking station, but would like to buy one along with this laptop, so I would highly appreciate a clarification!

How does this compare to the Zephyrus G15?  I'm confused why the Zeph is a similar price and it has a weaker processor and GPU.  I currently have the G15 Zephyrus and love it though.  Debating on returning and holding off for more GPU power from Strix.  Although, the Strix doesn't look as sleek. 


Zephyrus G15 has more emphasis on power management and portability. It uses the Nvidia max-q GPUs which doesn't perform as strongly as the max-p, but because of the lower power consumption, it probably has a better battery life. The portability aspect may also explain why only 1 (and not both) of the memory slots are upgradable in the Zephyrus G15. I haven't heard of any disappointments with the gaming performance on the Zephyrus G15 despite the max-p GPU, however.

The ROG Strix and the ROG Strix SCAR, on the other hand, are designed to more closely resemble desktop replacements. The power consumption is higher, but the battery life is not as good. Moreover, there is more height in the chassis, most likely for the cooling, and probably also to allow for both memory slots to be upgradable.

So better or not with the MSI ?
I would like to buy to G733QR (more or less the same as here but 17 inches) but I don't know with the MSI which one is the better :(
I already have an old Asus (G731J, i7 4th Gen and GTX970M) and I'm very happy with it ! So i'm confident with Asus...
Any advices ?
I have an old Asus G751 JY from 7 years ago (!) and I've always been very happy with it.
Today I'm buying a MSI GE76 with 3080 because it's likely the best thing on the market, again.
I cannot recommend going with Asus since they got rid of the Mux switch and force you to use Optimus, reducing your fps in many games (from 1% up to 20% in some games), it's a shame.

So with all the buzz about amd in laptops, i was expecting more improvements, especially with thermals but these chips appear to run as hot as intel?

They run using as much power as the hardware allows, and the resulting temperature is the function of the capabilities of the cooling system.

Asus' cooling isn't famed for being amazing at the low end, and this is a high-TDP chip, but you can see the difference between AMD and Intel in other devices - particularly thin-and-light - and their sustained performance.

If this is a real bother for you, get an AMD device and lock the clocks to a level that provides the same performance as Intel's best. You should end up running 10-15 degrees C cooler.

No mention about the fact you can't switch off Optimus? That's a major concern

Unclear why the Lenovo Legion 7i received 87% for the low travel and mushy keyboard where even the reviewer voiced their disappointment compared to ThinkPads, and here with the Asus we get 83% and suddenly yoi call it a good keyboard.

Jesus H Christ, this rating system is a god damn mess!

If you are some sort of person who plays a lot of e-sports titles, step aside. If not, this is a great laptop and I would definitely recommend it

This gaming laptop has all needed port minus SD Card reader, and you say it doesn't. What are you smoking for mocking AMD again, NBC?

The Asus ROG Strix G15 is one of the latest gaming laptops equipped with an RTX 3000 GPU and a Ryzen 5000 CPU. The combination promises high performance that can be used optimally in games with the 300 Hz display. However, what makes the G15 stand out from all other new gaming laptops? You can find out about that and much more in our review.
