Third is the noise of the fans. They are extraordinarily loud. With all the noise, I would think they'd do a better job cooling, but they don't. The GPU is running at 80C+ nearly the second I start a game with moderate settings. I was able to make it run a little bit cooler by playing on an external monitor, closing the lid of the laptop, and turning it upside down. Still, it only dropped to 75C but was even louder.

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. the AMD platform allows no room for tweaking and limits the gaming performance compared to Intel/RTX 2060 models The Asus TUF Gaming FX505DY comes in two color options, Gold Steel and Red Matter. We were sent the latter, and it’s OK, to be honest, but nothing breath-taking. Gold Steel looks a bit more interesting from the images we’ve seen. However, it’s not as big and bulky as gaming laptops from a few years ago, with dimensions of 39.9 x 27.9 x 2.6cm (15.7 x 11 x 1.02 inches) and a weight of 2.2kg (4.85 pounds). It’s a sturdy feeling laptop that you’ll feel comfortable carrying around with you, while not being too heavy. The other differences are the larger and heavier size of the FX705DY (as to be expected), and the larger laptop comes with a bigger 64Wh battery compared to the 48Wh of the FX505DY. With the battery needing to power the larger screen, however, we’d guess that battery life will actually be pretty similar between the two models.Our test model is the top-tier Asus TUF Gaming FX505DV configuration in the 2019 FX505 lineup, with the Ryzen 7 3750H processor, 32 GB of RAM in dual channel, M.2 PCIe x2 SSD storage and dual graphics, with the 90W version of the RTX 2060 6GB chip, alongside the Radeon RX Vega 10 chip within the AMD CPU. 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. WASD key group, and Overstroke technology for fast and precise control. With a cutting-edge IPS-level 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.

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.As far as performance goes, this laptop handles everyday chores smoothly, while running cool and mostly quiet, although you’ll still hear the fans even with the most basics of tasks. Also, I have all the same settings on otherwise you listed such as turbo mode and making sure the GPU is configured right in the Nvidia control panel). live-streaming. FX505 can also be specified with up to NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 graphics for vivid 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?

W (~4+ h of use) – 1080p fullscreen video on Youtube in Edge, Silent Mode, screen at 80%, Wi-Fi ON; 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. As with other devices in Asus’s TUF brand, the Asus TUF Gaming FX505DY has been put through a number of durability tests, including the military-grade MIL-STD-810G certification, to ensure that it is tough and robust. 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. Asus has reinforced the base of the laptop with a hexagonal design to improve “structural rigidity”, with an “X” cut into the laptop’s lid. The bezels surrounding the 15.6in IPS display are slim, although not quite as skinny as some of the new ROG laptops that are doing away with built-in webcams.The actual transfer speed of USB 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, and/or Type-C will vary depending on many factors including the processing speed of the host device, file attributes and other factors related to system configuration and your operating environment. setup. Stream your favorite movies in high-resolution or play online with fewer connection drops, even On to more demanding tasks, we’ll start by testing the CPU’s performance in taxing loads, and we do that by running Cinebench R15 for 10+ times in a loop, with 2-3 seconds delay between each run, with the laptop on the Turbo profile in Armoury Crate. 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.
