ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 Gaming Laptop, 15.6” 240Hz IPS QHD Display, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, Intel Core i9 12900H, 16GB DDR5, 1TB SSD, Per-Key RGB Keyboard, Windows 11 Home, G533ZW-AS94Q

Good laptops are hard to get a hold of, and this one was no different. Found it here and jumped on it for my son who is going into the ECE program and needed this level of performance.

The specs are strong, as anyone shopping for such a machine will recognize. The 4070 combined with the 165Hz screen give buttery, smooth performance. Cooling is decent.

It’s an alright laptop, I was able to do use it for school. But all of a sudden the screen decided to stop working and everytime I turn it on, the keyboard just lights up and turns right back off again. It seems like other people had a similar problem so it’s not just me. Please find a way to fix this or help in any way.

This is my first time to purchase a gaming laptop, so far I’m not a serious gamer but sometime play ETS2 by my 2017 PC.

if your looking for a fast laptop this is not the one to buy. It may be OS 11 dont know. But its not fast as it should be.

Laptop runs great, has handled everything Ive thrown at it flawlessly. Runs most of my games on medium at 200+ frames, NEVER had a game play under 80 frames unless i intentionally set the framers lower for environmental heat reasons (I play outside allot and its hot lately). My only complaint it with Amazon, my 3 day order turned into 5 days, then 7 days, then 2 weeks, and still arrived on day 15, not 2 weeks. It was not an isolated incident either, I ordered the 17 inch model for my father a few days later and received the same run around for 2 more weeks. I am a patient guy but I drive trucks for a living, I cant just sit waiting for packages for a month when I was told when ordering the would arrive within a week.

***Important Update: Noticed that when the laptop plugged in AC power, and play anything with sound. The touchpad will stop working without any reason, and will work again after stop playing the sound.

Excelente computadora, instale todos los programas que utilizo para arquitectura y los manejo muy bien, el único inconveniente es que se calienta bastante por lo que los ventiladores trabajan a su máxima potencia.

Got this machine as a replacement for my daily work driver and its solid. The easy upgradability makes it so easy to add extra storage, or swap out the RAM. Took me under 10 minutes to do both!

Theres a lot to talk about here, but I just want to touch on my use cases. Laptop is extremely powerful especially comes with an RTX 4070. Does help offload a lot of pricing power to the graphic art and this is the main reason why you would wanna get this laptop over something else. I was able to play games on max graphic, and it runs very smoothly. I hooked it up to my Samsung G9 monitor and it runs games at 240 FPS. Aesthetically, its not really a look that I like compared to some of the more slicker laptop out there but youre getting this laptop because of the Intel i9 and Nvidia graphic card. Overall anyone that wants to up their gaming machine this is the one. The battery life is obviously very poor, because it drains a lot of power. I wouldnt recommend you playing this on battery powered because it does throttle once it heats up.
