For those who want it Everything in quality/price Asus ROG Strix G17 with RTX 4070, AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX and 240 Hz QHD screen for me one of the best laptops on the market without wasting money, with a perfect balance for the 99% of laptop buyers.

This is complete nonsense.
It has an idiotic 16:9, instead of 16:10 (like 18") - which is mandatory for a universal laptop.
It does not have USB40 outputs, but it could even have 4 ports (each port is only x1 pci-e 5.0) - because... freely more than 20 pci-e 5.0 lines just hanging in the air.
He has an idiotic keyboard, in which Esc, F1..F12 are narrowed and are not illuminated in the dark (only additional characters, as noted in the reviews), these buttons (like 18"), they are barely visible.
The location of the ports is also not very good and there are few of them, as described above, as well as the idiotic location of the 18" series, which is generally produced only by Intel.
Liquid metal (as in 18") in the cooling system makes it extremely difficult for the owner to maintain the laptop.
The laptop refuses to work with ddr5 5200 modules, according to some reports, although Zen4 is designed for them and the memory controller is still 25-35% slower than Intel memory controllers with the same modules.
This is an extremely unbalanced laptop. Just like the idiotic 18" line from Asus (where the numpad is deliberately damaged and there are simply no ports at the back). Both series are unfinished and even close.
If they were truly "balanced", I would be the first to buy them.
Classic and refreshing this comment. Asus release garbage get some paid reviews for garbage and out pops garbage review. 😂
