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

Just incredible. the feeling to the touch is just pleasant. I feel like typing on the keyboard all the time. The only downside is the lack of a built-in camera. But I stay Asus.

This thing is a beast. I have run a few benchmarks on it.

Summary: My current desktop is an older Dell XPS 8920 from 2017, which has a i7-7700 processor.  Its still decently fast running Windows 10 Home.  I havent had a dedicated gaming machine before, so I am very sure that this i9-12900 with the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti card is going to be insanely fast!  The last laptop we bought was a 13-inch MacBook back in August 2020.

This is a decent laptop, but the lights are EXTREMELY annoying and I havent been able to turn them off yet.

I recently found myself in life where I needed a laptop more then using my gaming desktop. I had a nice higher end system and was scared to make the jump to a laptop, but let me just say, this blew expectations away.

PROS:

Couple weeks ago I requested to return my Asus G15 Advantage laptop in favor for this one, which is the ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 with i9-12900h CPU and Nvidia 3070-ti GPU. However, they sent me a used one! I chose to buy the brand new one, but they sent me a used one without its original packaging, etc. The Asus G15 Advantage laptop I got about 3 weeks ago was brand-new in its original, sealed packages with serial codes and everything, etc. I think the Asus Scar here is low on quantity; that’s probably why I got a used one, but even then I shouldnt have paid full price for a used one.

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.

Great gaming notebook, this is my most satisfying electronic product of the year

First, Ill just tell you that, yes, this computer is incredibly awesome. Then Im going to nitpick it as much as I can just to give you an honest perspective and hopefully some details you havent already figured out.
