ASUS - ROG Zephyrus 15.6 QHD Gaming Laptop - AMD Ryzen 9 - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 - 1TB SSD - Eclipse Grey - Eclipse Grey

This laptop has a faulty wireless adapter. I have been on the phone for hours. Their chat refers you to BestBuy GeekSquad. I took it Best Buy and then contacted BestBuy online just to make sure it wasnt a mistake. BestBuy isnt going to help if you bought it from Amazon. I may end up returning this just because I cant get support. Sure, I could probably buy an external wireless card but what about the next time I need something.

So I bought a razer laptop here in 2021. It arrived basically dead on arrival. I thought no big deal, got a replacement. Razer sent me a second computer that had a different horrible problem. Then their customer service was a garbage fire.

Absolutely wonderful laptop, ASUS did a great job with the thermal performance - allowing the laptop to run at maximum clock speeds throughout excel calculations or simulations. The 8-cores and 16 thread AMD CPU keeps productivity high, while keeping fan speeds down thanks to its great TDP. I was able to upgrade my memory to 40Gb, sadly 8Gb is soldered on - for the future a second M.2 SSD is planned for backup. Because of this upgrade I was able to disable Windows Paging file for additional performance and to boost SSD longevity. Battery life is good, 5-6 hours away from a socket keeps this laptop mobile around anywhere. The 1440p 165Hz display gives a great balance between sharpness and smoothness, feeling snappy and good color accuracy! My only real complaint is the locked BIOS, not allowing me to change RAM memory frequency.

It is a $1800 laptop and it always fails to sleep when I close the lid.

Im still trying to make myself comfortable with this machine. But in general it has a wonderful graphics and display,comfortable keyboard,great speed, long lasting battery and fast charging. Im still checking everything on different heavy programs not only games but animation and 3d modeling. And at the moment it showing really good results. I didnt waste my money and I love this laptop. Thanks.

Product received in good condition. a bit delay but was OK.
