6 Cores better for Gaming ? ASUS TUF A15 vs ACER HELIOS 300

The Helios 300 was the most popular gaming laptop of 2019 and I reviewed the model with a 6 core i7 9750h and GTX 1660Ti graphics. But how does it compare against the 8 core Ryzen 4800h / GTX 1660Ti Asus TUF A15?
In this video I show you the physical differences between the two laptops, the chassis and component thermals, fan and speaker noise as well as CPU and gaming performance.

The Helios 300 is available for $1130:

The Asus TUF A15 is available for $999:

Doing so helps support the funding of the channel.
Thanks !

Yesterday, I found in MSI website that there is a significant difference of 2% between rtx 2080 super and rtx 2080

Just the title of this video gave me smile. Loving your videos bout' this A15. 🙂

Steven what about that strange bug where at low settings it switches to igpu?

[muhammadikram]

Hey steven. I heard rtx 2060 laptop starting price will be 999$ such as hp omen 15 2020 (from the nvidia page) when do you think it will release???

[robss]

yeah shame on nvidia lmao they should give ryzen 4000 series with the new 2070 and 2080 super at least

in the model acer predator helios 300 of 2020 with I7 10750H and RTX 2060 vs the tuf A15 with R7 4800H and RTX 2060 who's better in gaming performance?

[hunterhorrocks]

Wow I literally was looking at your reviews between these two yesterday trying to figure which one to go with. I went with the Helios, but either way it is a good buy.

[ajiljagadeesh]

Does the A17 have the same color gamut and high latency screens like the A15 or better ones?

[ShaneeeXD]

Nees help!! Which one is better between TUF A15 and Helios 300 i5-9th gen with rtx?

[yashgirirollno]

This right here is the comparison I was waiting for ...thanks man just hope they get listed soon in india

Deciding between the a15 and the 300 but have been leaning towards the a15 mostly because I always hear about how great the battery life is. Is the 15 worth getting over the 300 just for the battery life even tho the screen is bad? I will be using it to stream videos along with gaming.

Hey is this asus tuf model the final product, are they gonna improve the screen in mass production, coz other than display everything is perfect, this one thing weighs the whole laptop down, display is what u will look at eventually,

[yatishv]

I play games, use big softwares like ansys, solidworks, catia, etc... and everyday use
I was confused between asus TUF, acer nitro and acer Prediator.
Any suggestions?

[VahidMasrour]

That was highly educational for me. Thank you. I'm interested in more direct comparisons such as this one regarding the performance of similar systems (with the CPU variations).

[augustinewong]

Any Helios 300 (2020) vs A15 vs Legion 5 comparison, their selling prices are close tho.
Or which one do you personally recommend?

[AJ-kwhv]

Hi, can you please explain liquid metal on copper. i am confused. how can i tell if i am 100% coper or mixed? and what exactly happens if its naked copper? and how often do you need to re-apply liquid metal? i want to apply liquid metal.

is the razer blade 2019 heatsink 100% naked copper?

[ryancaspersen]

Are the new asus tuf laptops using max q graphics? Trying to narrow down buying options. Any info would be appreciated

[Danguitoh]

how many more hours of use do you get asus tuf a15 vs acer 300 for the battery ? in gaming and web browsing

[rotfan]

Thanks for doing this video, I had heard good things about the Acer Helios 300 and heard that it runs it’s cooler than the Asus A15, which I heard was having some issues and approaching pretty high temps during gaming? Do you have any input on that? Thanks
