I am using the 3060 variant and honestly, I am not regretting the purchase. Looks like a sweet spot to me.

[pinguinn_]

me: ah yes, another *TUF* laptop that is *TUF* to recommend even though it is military-grade *TUF*, but because of *TUF* performance it gets beaten even by last gen stTUFf. *TUF*, isn't it?

[ed]

you saved me from adding this as an option, it was backup for if I can't get a Zephyrus G14 :)

I got this exact laptop - but in the 3060 variant.
Love it!
I agree that the quad core should be paired only with 3060, in benchmarks it falls only slightly behind the 3060 85W with 99% use.
The good thing about the CPU tho' - those aren't some crappy cores inside it, but very powerful ones which allow overall laptop to constantly work without a hiccup in daily use and gaming.

TL;DR:
Great laptop, but you should only consider the 3060 variant (and it's screen is not that bad as some say when compared with the more expesive 3070 variant).

[m-foh]

I own the 3060 version of this laptop (like several other people here), and it is very good from what I can tell, I use it for lots of photo editing in lightroom and it has no hiccups, gaming is also smooth. I should note that I rushed to pick this laptop on boxing day so I didn't do quite as much research as I should've, but I don't regret my decision, and having a lighter and thinner laptop compared to other similar gaming laptops is fantastic when you need to travel by public transit with it daily.

Thank you very much, and thanks for a brief testing of it in Linux as it's always hard to find that kind of info especially for the models which aren't widespread yet. I really hope that manufacturers would start add more Linux support soon or at least have control over battery charging which is the biggest concern for me as without it a laptop's battery would overcharge and will die quickly.

When last gen laptops perform better...

More like Tuf Crawl F15

Intel wasn't really thinking when they added an option for a 3070, it should be conisdered more as a mid to low end laptop with only 3050, 3050 ti and 3060 graphics in mind, since it only has a 4 core cpu. Although all of that, I plan to buy this with an i7 11370H and a 3050, even though people dislike this laptop for putting a 4 core in 2021

[Emre-goiw]

I know it's 4 cores and all but this laptop with a 3050ti and a 11300h is about 50-100 dollars cheaper than 1660ti laptops that have a decent CPU here (4800 or a 10750). So that configuration of the laptop seems like a decent option here

WAS WAITING FOR THIS THANK U SO MUCH JARROD

[turbochargersutututu]

Jarrod you legend!!! I literally commented this in your last video!!! Thanks a billion!

[SargeantRho]

i love your reviews they cover most aspects of a notebook and in my opinion you are the best reviewer our community have i also love you! <3

[apexalpha]

Thank you Jarrod.
I have been waiting for this for a long time Brother.

[PaulieK]

I actually considered this one before settling with an Alienware with an 8core cpu, 140w 3080 and 32 gb of ram for a few hundred more.

[adiirfan]

bruh how 3070 losing against 1660 ti in same watt 😂😂😂 9:41

[jonas]

Man I would love to see Jarrod's reaction when he tries a MacBook speaker.

[prosperomiponle]

I feel like 4-core CPU’s aren’t meant for gaming laptops at all. 6-cores can be for low-enders while 8-cores should be for mid to high end models

[boredtuna]

Back when asus announced this, I was super excited for this until I saw that quad core i7, a lot of people are going to fall for that CPU

[channelschannel]

Highly relevant review, and a strongly non recommended version with a quad core

[osvaldot]

Got the 3060 variant since day one, $1100 at Best Buy. Good performance at a good price.
