The ASUS TUF A15 is now listed for $1200 on Amazon

Looking for a gaming laptop

I am currently looking at a gaming laptop for my first step into the pc side of gaming.

I was looking at the ASUS TUF A15 with the new Ryzen 4800h but it doesn't come into stock until June 30 which puts it arriving around July 8 or so.

Here's a link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0863DW238/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_LAbXEbZVH5AQ7

I am scheduled to move to Italy one week before that laptop is in stock and I'm unsure about how ordering laptops overseas works with shipping and what not so I would rather avoid that situation and just look at what's avaliable for me right now.

As for specs, I want at least a 144 HZ display and a powerful cpu/gpu that can get me 144 fps on at least the Rocket League game.

If I can get ~ 100 fps on other titles (like Cyberpunk, COD, the Witcher) that be fine with me.

Like I mentioned at the top, this is my first step into pc gaming so I know very little of which cpu/gpu is best but this is what I'm looking for.

Max budget will be 1200 and I am buying in the US.

If anyone out there knows how shipping and prices work over in Italy, and it would be a better option to wait and just purchase a laptop or even build a PC over there, please let me know.

The new Tuf has a better CPU and same specs otherwise for the same price. Or you can pay an extra $100 and get a full 1TB and a 2060. Which I think is worth it:

If you're looking for moderate to good gaming performance, you should look for a laptop with GTX 1660ti. If you're looking for really good to high gaming, go for an RTX laptop. If you like to have a good battery life, I'd suggest the Asus TUF A15 with the 90whr battery. It has an RTX 2060 so it'll handle any game at high settings (and not every feature) with decent FPS. And if you're not gaming, it'll last easily for 8-9 hours. I'll link it here. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0863DW238/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_t1_foYSFb0P85K4J

Here's the A15 with a 2060 and 1TB SSD for $1199, think I'm just going to hunker down and wait to drop the extra $200 for the upgraded processor/gpu

Tuf A15 solid performance and amazing cou power. The screen is a bummer and it had a 90w hour battery as well. They also have a grey colour metallic lid/cover option for the laptop which is mute Nd doesn't shout gaming laptop. So u can use it for schl I would recommend h get the Rtx 2060 model Nd it costs about 1199 USD .

Hp omen 15 has just been officially revealed and pre orders are up. At this point in time there are no reviews of it, the only dealbreaker I’ve seen for it is that it only has 8 GB ram, so yeah some may not like it. The Asus TUF A15 is advertised to have military grades of durability. It’s also one of the cheapest Rex laptops out there, however it’s screen has low colour accuracy and that’s a dealbreaker for me, hence why I prefer the omen, and because omen has B&O sound.

TBH I dont even know what you mean by block voltage control. Im not much of a pc nerd. I just like gaming and try to get the best in my price range. And right now I really need a new laptop. Atm, I have an asus with geforce gtx 850 and core i7. I got it 201t. Its fallen a few times, and it gets extremely hot. I dont think the body was made for gaming. Some of my keys have stopped working and/or popped out. Its gotten extremely slow too.

So, im really considering the predator helios in this post or the asus tuf here:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0863DW238/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_gyZ9Eb3FD476A

Asus mainly because i saw that its drop proof and has more memory. But now im guessing ryzen is better too?

I don't think that there are any major cons to the laptop, but it is simply a refresh from the last generation. So, I think that the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 is the best value with the brand new Ryzen 4000.

No, it’s capped at 95 degrees which is completely fine and for anyone uncomfortable with that heat you can use Ryzen Controller or turn off Performance Boost Mode which keeps it significantly cooler with little to no performance loss.

Sorry for the delay guys, I'm basically drunk to get through this heat because I'm not used to it lol So bear with me if possible.

I originally ordered the TUF506IV-AS76 from amazon back on May 17th with the delivery estimate around June 1st. Thankfully the delivery was early and even on Memorial day. I missed out when Amazon probably took the first A15 orders but I'm pretty sure as long as you keep checking their website then you'll see that you can place an order soon. I also checked out other places like newegg but they didn't have any updates to their "out of stock".

You can choose the new ryzen 4000 series laptops , Go with Asus tuf a15 the ryzen 5 will.have 6 cores and 12 threads and ryzen 7 will have 8 cores 16 threads that will outperform i7 9750h which only have 6 cores and 12threads. You will have 2 variants one gtx 1650ti and gtx 1660ti as you will not do gaming do go with gtx 1650 version. The models I saw comes with 8gb or 16gb ram with 144hz refresh rate . You can take 8gb ram version and add 4 to it and that might be cheaper for you.

https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-IPS-Type-GeForce-Battery-TUF506IV-AS76/dp/B0863DW238

This one has rtx 2060 so it's cost is 1200 usd , if you will take gtx 1650 it will be much cheaper

Whatever you pick go for ryzen 4000 series CPUs .

I would recommend this New Asus TUF Gaming A15 because it offers great value and specs for the money, and since it is very new, here is a small review of it :

  • Comes with the New 8 core CPU (AMD Ryzen 7 4800H).
  • Plastic Aluminium lid, weight 4.8 lbs , just over 1 inch thick.
  • Comes with 2X8 DDR4 3200mhz and space for 2x NVMe drivers

  • You can get the additional 2.5 bay, but that means a smaller battery .

  • The smaller battery will give you 2.5~3 hours of battery life during normal usage (expect to double if you get the bigger battery life).
  • This version has the bigger battery
  • Screen hinges are tight, so it will be hard to open it with one hand

  • Screen is Full HD IPS with 144Hz refresh rate, comes with 65% sRGB, 49% aRGB and 284 nits brightness.

  • We don't have an exact number on response time, but it appears to be average (or slightly below) for a 144Hz screen

  • Small power brick but overpowered for what you will need.

  • Keyboard is quite, trackpad is smooth, accurate, and with dedicated buttons, the Audio is also average.

  • Comes with HDMI port, 3 USB 3.1, 1 USB C, combo mich and headspeakers port.

  • Very good heat mangement in general, but it is better for the GPU than it is for the CPU.

Due to the Virus a lot of laptops are being overpriced so make sure to check this list of overpriced laptops before you buy any laptop at the moment.

Set my mind at ease that waiting for something else than the MSI Leopard is the smart thing to do.

I have been searching and searching for a laptop. I know what I want in specs. I was given a budget of $1000 by the wife, laugh all you want guys but happy wife happy life LOL... Don't ever just run out and buy a motorcycle behind her back, I've done this twice. It is just better to let her open the purse hand you your balls and ask for permission lol... But we all know budgets were meant to be broken. And with a warranty, I am looking in the range of about $1300 to -$1500 total.

10th gen i7 or Ryzen 7 4800 - Preferrably the Ryzen

1660 or 2060/2070 RTX preferably the 2060 or 2070

144hz screen

The rest is secondary.

I want to say I will be gaming and I will be but honestly, it won't be that much. This will be like a Ferrari in the garage that won't get used as much as it should be. I have a lot of downtime at work so it will be used but I just want the ability to play any game I want at any time with no issues. Frame rates really don't matter as much as they would to a hardcore gamer to me but still, they do matter.

I really want to wait for the new Tuf to come out but shipping won't be until July and I have given up on the Legion series. I like the Y740 laptops and the new 5i and 7i were a big let down on price for what they offered in specs. The MSI laptops I have seen really seem to be the better buy over the Legions ( to a point ), except they are overpriced by about $200. And they have the damn power cord on the right side, damn near a deal-breaker for me. Not to mention they run extremely hot. That I really do not like at all.

I have This MSI GP65 Leopard 10SEK-048 in mind but the real issue I have is that it's overpriced and that damn right-side power cord. I want to pull the trigger but like any purchase, I am making sure I get my money's worth.

I really want to wait for the newer Asus Tuf or the Hp Omen that is supposed to come out ??? whenever but I am getting very impatient. And getting something now before I have to switch gears on price or even getting a new laptop is really irking me. It's like Violet in Willy Wonka "I want it and I want it now!!"

Ease my mind please that I should wait because I can wait but July is so far away lol...

Need a New Laptop: Acer Predator Helios 300 or ASUS Tuf Gaming A15, or something else?

  • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
    Around $1200USD. Will go higher if laptop will last longer.
  • Are you open to refurbs/used?
    Sure? I'm not experienced in if refurbed/used laptops are just as good as new.
  • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
    Performance and life of laptop.
  • How important is weight and thinness to you?
    Not super important, though it should be comfortable to bring on a plane.
  • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
    N/A
  • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
    Yes, I use AutoDesk AutoCAD, Inventor, and Revit (I am a CAD teacher). I also just started some gaming. I'm not an intense gamer or anything. The most performance hungry game I play right now is GTA V.
  • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
    I really just want to play without lag. I don't need the greatest graphics in the world and I'm not too into the smallest of differences. I've seen comparisons between 120fps and 144fps on YouTube and I don't think I really care about that. I just want to play smoothly!
  • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
    Would like a webcam.
  • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
    I have found two laptops that I think would be good. Here they are.
  • Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop, Intel Core i7-9750H, GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, 15.6" Full HD 144Hz Display, 3ms Response Time, 16GB DDR4, 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, RGB Backlit Keyboard, PH315-52-710B
  • ASUS TUF Gaming A15 Gaming Laptop, 15.6” 144Hz Full HD IPS-Type, AMD Ryzen 7 4800H, GeForce RTX 2060, 16GB DDR4, 1TB PCIe SSD, 90WHr Battery, RGB Backlit KB, Windows 10 Home, TUF506IV-AS76

From my own research, it seems like the ASUS would be better as the Ryzen 7 4800H is better than the Intel i7-9750H and RTX 2060 is better than GTX 1660 Ti. And for a very similar price, the ASUS has more storage. But I've seen reviews attacking the display of the ASUS so those reviewers have suggested people buy something else. Maybe they're just being picky though, I don't know. And I have only known Intel until I found out about AMD Ryzen in my searches.

In the end, I want something that will last a long time (in terms of overall life) and won't lag a whole lot when gaming and working on CAD, and I'd rather have more knowledgeable people help me than try to pick one myself with my limited knowledge. But in comparison I have a Lenovo ideapad FLEX 4 right now with 8GB RAM and an Intel Pentium 4405U so either of these would be a whole lot better than what I have now. I'm open to hearing other laptop suggestions as well.

If you can wait a bit, the ASUS A15 will likely be one of the best choices for you. It has a big battery and the new Ryzen CPU with a GTX2060. If you need it right now, I'd probably look into some of the options MSI has in your price range. The GP65 could work.

Wasn't working for me either but I searched amazon and found it. I think this is it, it's 15 inch not 17 inch though:
