We’re not completely convinced by that, but the keyboard isn't bad for a laptop of this price. The keys are a decent size, which makes it easy for fast typers to hit the correct letters as they hammer away, and Asus promises the keyboard is good for 20 million key presses. So I like to ask, which one do you think better? The ROG or TUF one? And why you think that the best. The rest of the body around the keyboard has a brushed steel look, but it’s a distinctly plastic-feeling laptop. It’s fine for the price, but if you want a gaming laptop that looks – and feels – more impressive, then you’ll probably need to look elsewhere and be prepared to pay more money.

Gaming on Battery/Balanced is hardly an option either, as the CPU and GPU are capped just like in the previous scenario. Of course, the price you pay for this kind of protection is a more chunky laptop design that feels a bit dated when compared to (more expensive) thin and light gaming laptops. But, for people who want a solid laptop they don’t have to worry about when carrying it around, the larger design could be worth it. The implementation is fairly efficient, yet not as efficient with low-power use and movies as the Intel/Nvidia options out there, so don’t expect more than 2-4 hours of use with this laptop. Bezel layar pada seri lamanya pun tebal. Nah, pada seri FX505 ini ASUS sepertinya ingin memberikan pengalaman yang sama bagi para gamers dengan budget pas-pasan seperti memiliki laptop dari keluarga ROG dengan menampilkan tampilan khas laptop gaming yang memiliki ornamen futuristik. Seri FX505 juga tampil lebih elegan karena layar dengan bezel tipis. Maka dari itu, ukurannya jika dibandingkan dengan pendahulunya, FX504, nampak lebih kecil. According to Asus, the TUF Gaming FX505DY’s keyboard is 'desktop-inspired', which means you should expect the kind of quality and comfort you’d get from a desktop PC keyboard.There are very few and subtle differences in terms of build and design between the 2018 and 2019 FX505 lineups, so I’ll direct you to my previous article for my in-depth thoughts on these aspects. The fans are tamed down on Silent, but gaming on Silent greatly limits the performance, so it’s only possible in older and simpler titles. The camera is placed on top of the screen, flanked by microphones. It’s OK for occasional calls, but muddy and grainy, just like most laptop cameras in this price range. Battery life Next, we’ve included a set of benchmarks, for those of you interested in numbers. We ran them on the default Turbo profile first, and here’s what we got:

Pada laptop gaming keluarga TUF ini, ASUS mendesain bodinya dengan ringkas dan tipis. Ketebalannya hanya 6,5 milimeter. Nggak cuma itu, walaupun bukan dari keluarga lini ROG, laptop gaming ini didesain dengan material yang kuat yakni alumunium yang bersertifikasi militer. Ngeri nggak tuh? More details about this Panda 120 Hz panel are also available in this article. Hardware and performance

Packed with AMD gaming tech

For connectivity, there’s Gigabit Lan and Wireless AC through Realtek chips, as well as Bluetooth 5.0. We’ve mostly used our sample on wireless, and it performed alright near the router and at 30+ feet away with obstacles in between, without drops or other issues, but didn’t reach the high speeds that some of the other laptops were capable with our setup. Type-A ports for your gaming peripherals, as well as HDMI 2.0 to connect to an external display. All There’s only a 48 Wh battery inside the 15-inch TUF Gaming FX505, which is a bit small even for an entry-level gaming notebook by today’s standards, where most other options offer a 52-58 Wh battery.

I also like if you give me recommendation other than Asus but cover my budget. Maybe it can Lenovo, Acer or MSI and also the reason why you think that the best with that budget? Second is that this thing runs REALLY hot. Really hot. I had it shut down on my a couple of times sitting on my desk. And you get no warning, it just shuts down.W (~4+ h of use) – 1080p fullscreen video on Youtube in Edge, Silent Mode, screen at 80%, Wi-Fi ON; If you want a bigger screen, then there’s also the Asus TUF FX705DY, which has pretty much exactly the same spec, except its 1080p screen is 17.3 inches and refresh rate is half at 60Hz. It’s important to understand these aspects when shopping for one of these lower-priced gaming notebooks, as the devil lies within these small details. That means you might get a better performer if you’re willing to spend a little more, but also if you’re willing to go with what might on-paper look like a lower-tier GTX 1660Ti computer. Asus offers it’s own GTX 1660Ti variants of the FX505, as well as the portable Zephyrus G GA502, but go through our review, there’s more than meets the eye with that one as well. Other competitive options in this niche are the Asus ROG Strix G, Acer Predator Helios 300, Dell G3 Gaming, Lenovo Legion Y540 and HP Omen 15, each with their particularities and traits, but also all based on Intel/Nvidia hardware. At only a little above 200-nits in our tests, this panel is alright for daily use, but you’ll struggle with it in brighter environments, both indoors and outdoors. Color accuracy is also poor and washed out compared to the screens available in slightly more expensive gaming notebooks. You should definitely use an external screen for color-accurate work, and you might even find the colors dulls with everyday use and movies.

With daily use, I’d recommend keeping the laptop on Balanced, as Silent tends to make the experience a little sluggish. The fans don’t shut completely off, but they do spin quietly and you’ll only notice them in a quiet room. Its competitive pricing is what primarily puts this laptop on most maps. In fact, in most regions, this is the most affordable RTX 2060 notebook you can find in stores, and it’s not even a regular RTX 2060, it’s the 90W OC variant you’d normally get on much more expensive gaming notebooks like the Asus ROG Scar III or the MSI GE65 Raider. Last year they completely redesigned it. This year they further updated the configurations and made them even more price-competitive, by opting for a mix of AMD Ryzen and Nvidia Turing hardware, without sacrificing important aspects like a fast refresh-rate IPS screen, an RGB keyboard or a chassis built to last. recognizable gaps between the function keys. In addition, Overstroke technology registers keystrokes Both the CPU and the GPU run and high temperatures with games, around 85-90 degrees for the CPU and 80-85 degrees for the GPU. Those are high temperatures and most 15-inch laptops with same-level Intel/Nvidia specs run cooler. These internal temperatures don’t spread onto the outer shell, but they might also have an impact over long-term reliability, as heat and electronics don’t play well together. Asus claims to have properly tested these products, but I’d personally opt for an extended warranty, just to be on the safe side.It’s the same from last year’s TUF Gaming FX505/FX705 models, with a pretty standard layout, but cramped arrow keys and a narrower NumPad section. The WASD keys are made from clear plastic, which allows the illumination to shine through, and RGB illumination is implemented, controllable through the AURA subsection in the Armoury Crate control software that comes preinstalled. The keys also have a 1.8mm key travel. This is rather shallow, so the keyboard doesn’t feel as responsive – or satisfying – to type on as a desktop keyboard. The WASD keys are also highlighted to help FPS players – though if you’re a keen player it’s unlikely you’ll really need any help finding those essential keys.
