Does what it claim to be capable of doing. It can play most modern games at 150-200 fps. It, in no means can match the performance and upgradeability of a desktop rig, so it comes down to what you plan to use it for. If you have the money to spend on this and plan to be mobile a lot (i.e. travel, vacation, school, work) this will be more than capable to meet your needs. You just need to decide if the cost is worth it, for the same money you can build your own pc with better parts and continue to upgrade that PC. I would say this laptop is more for the luxury and convenience, my only issue with it is I prefer to lay in bed at night to watch videos online and don't like wearing headphones and would much rather hear from the laptop itself, the sound is very very low at max, like to the point my AC would almost drown out the sound, wearing headphones would solve this issue so not a deal breaker. If you can afford it and want a luxury gaming laptop this is for you. Read more

Perfect for the price. Can run games easily. Fan noise is not too bad. Display is great. Easy to upgrade. Read more

Let me first tell you what I don't like about this laptop. I don't like that I had to wait until 2024 to get it. There, I said it. I have always been a fan of ASUS, and this ROG Strix gaming laptop is the 'bees-knees'. However, I wouldn't call it a laptop so much as a fancy space-heater. Yeah, it gets very hot! That being said, I'm running Satisfactory at max settings and only getting 67°C heat out of it. My electric blanket thanks you ASUS. And I still get over 100fps consistently. What do I mean when I say I'm a Compu-snob? I mean that I only want the best, but at the lowest price. I'm not a space-ship mogul after all... I spent the better part of a year sourcing out laptops, desktops, and tablets for something that would scream, MORE, and yet not make my wallet scream, LESS! And this is it. The CPU idles at 2.20GHz but revs up to 4GHz for all your high-performance needs. With 16GB DDR5 RAM clocked at a ridiculous 5600MHz, this RTX 4070 GPU machine puts ultimate power where it belongs...In my living room...and yours too. P.S. You can up the RAM to 32GB and the SSD to 2 or 4 TB if you want, and who doesn't? The screen is bright and vibrant, however, it's not bright enough for outdoors. But with a battery life of one hour or less, you will want to plug this power-hungry beast into a wall. And, yes, there are some very appreciable power-saver settings you can use. I don't. Never will... The price tag is reasonable. I got the seasonal deal, but even at MFG price, you really can't beat what you are getting. If you want to make your friends envious with a screaming beast of a gaming machine without having to donate organs, then the ROG Strix 2024 is your choice. Read more

Great computer. Runs games amazingly and it’s a great price! Read more

The performance is fabulous. The money is well spent. I thought about getting a stationary PC but this works out better for mobility. The frame generation with the 40 series cards is great as well. Not to mention, coming from a 1070 this is profound. I am not disappointed. Also, it shipped from U.S to Bahamas and came if perfect condition 🥹💪🏽 Read more

The storage capacity is good, along with the RAM capacity. The graphics card is great as well. The laptop has a great build, as it's made out of metal and has pretty high quality parts for its price point. The laptop is also good at staying cool with its 3 fan system and is fairly bright, even with an antiglare monitor. The i9 is very fast, as it has 8 performance cores and 16 effeciency cores (24-cores total). 16 GB RAM is nice at not causing freezing for most tasks, but upgrading the RAM is suggested if you wish to use this for gaming. Upgrades are easy too, as both the SSD and the RAM are not soldered and click in and out of the laptop's motherboard. Plus, there are 2 SSD slots and 2 RAM slots, with 1 free SSD slot if you want to purchase an extra storage card to have additional storage on top of the 1 TB SSD that is provided. Overall, this choice is amazing if you want a quality gaming laptop at a reasonable price point. The only suggestion I would have for buyers is upgrading the RAM if using for heavy gaming. Read more

So far the laptop is really good and plays every game on max and runs like butter I'd say you should get one imo :) Read more

Love it ❤️, though it can run a little hot on my lap, but the fans works well managing the temperature. Read more

I've used the Asus ROG Strix G16 (RTX 4070 - Intel i9) for 9 months, and here’s my honest review. Background: I purchased this laptop to replace both my Surface Laptop 2 (for work) and my gaming desktop (RTX 2070 - Ryzen 5 3600). While it has mostly replaced both, it falls short in some key areas. Work Performance: Coming from the Surface, I’ve had to compromise: Webcam: Subpar compared to the Surface's excellent one. Keyboard: Occasionally misses keystrokes. Trackpad: Among the worst I’ve experienced—functional, but a major downgrade. However, the screen is stunning, and the refresh rate is exceptional, making it visually amazing for general use and especially for gaming. Let me say, Elden Ring on Ultra Setting and Ray Tracing (about 40-50 fps) is easily the most beautiful game I've ever seen. I was used to 1080p but with this screen games look kind of 3D for some reason, and I love it. Gaming Performance: The laptop is better than my gaming PC in most respects, but there are drawbacks: Performance: Games run well, but don’t expect miracles. With the 2K screen, ultra settings at 80+ FPS aren’t always achievable. The laptop RTX 4070 is roughly 50% weaker than its desktop counterpart. Speakers: Easily the worst I’ve encountered on a laptop—super quiet even at max volume. Additional Pros & Cons: Pros: Expandable Storage: Comes with a 1TB SSD and room for upgrades. I added 2TB, bringing the total to 3TB. Upgradeable RAM: Default 16GB isn’t sufficient for multitasking or external monitors. I upgraded to 64GB (5600MT/s) for future-proofing. Cons: Battery Life: Barely lasts 2 hours even on battery-saving settings. To extend battery life, you must disable the Nvidia GPU via Windows Device Manager—not user-friendly. Cooling: Default fan profiles allow the CPU to hit 100°C. You’ll need to manually configure fans in Armoury Crate. Even then, the Intel i9 runs hot and is power-hungry. Asus Aura Sync: Not supported. Keyboard RGB options are limited to basic presets. Build Design: The charging cable is short, forcing the power brick to rest on your desk, bed, or hang awkwardly. Screen: Advertised as HDR-capable, but this only applies to external HDR monitors, not the laptop's screen. Weight: It’s heavy and bulky, so portability is limited. Conclusion: My goal was to replace my working laptop and gaming PC in a “all in one” device. Does it deliver? Yes but half way. It’s a powerhouse but not enough of a powerhouse to compete with desktops and it’s a not enough of a “laptop” to feel like you have a portable computer as it’s super heavy and it’s almost always connected to the wall. I don’t know how other gaming computers compare, considering the different price ranges, but overall, I’m satisfied with what I was able to afford to achieve the goal of replacing a gaming PC and a thin working laptop.

I bought this laptop after my Asus Zephysus failed and quit working one year after buying it from best buy. This is my third ROG. My first one from 2014 never failed me but in 2023 i figured it was time for an update. The Strix has none of the problems the Zephysus had. I have zero heat issues, it can play all the games i want it to (and they look great). It powers up fast and i have had zero issues with crashes or blue screens of death. It has been very reliable for every task i have need it for. I deploy quite often so the laptop is one of my few forms of entertainment. When im at home i can take it room to room to be with my family and use it. This is something you can't really do with a console. This was twice the price of my last laptop and the most expensive of the three ive owned, but to me it is worth the price. It has all the bells and whistles with led lighting around the base and keyboard if you care about that. The biggest plus for me though was that it is user friendly. I prefer the NVIDIA interface to the AMD and the asus apps. I am not the most technological and just want the games a buy to play the best on the computer i have. If you are trying to choose between ASUS ROG products just go ahead and pull the trigger on this one, you wont regret it. Don't forget to add the Amazon warranty, better to have it and not need it and all that. Read more
