This thing will run most games without effort. I find that I enjoy running games in 'Balanced Mode' in the OMEN software, The CPU/GPU may not clock as high, but I still get pretty high frames (it IS a 5080 after all) and the laptop stays at a temperature I'm comfortable with without sounding like a turbojet. But, Performance mode is there, I'd just recommend using headphones and know that you'll run the risk of really annoying anyone around you. The thing actually seems to get hotter in performance mode, but with the benefit of additional frames. Surprisingly not a lot of bloatware comes with this laptop. I did uninstall a few things, but I've seen far worse. It's not an OLED panel, but the IPS is still smooth and vivid, especially at 240Hz

Like the sleek look to this laptop. Easy to set up and start using right away. Comfortable keyboard, too.

Works as expected and desired.

- Arrived earlier than expected - Included a printed setup guide for easy installation - Laptop was in perfect condition with no visible damage - Handles spreadsheets and finance-related software with minimal issues - Runs smoothly for academic and professional tasks - Can stream shows with good visual quality - Runs games like Roblox and Minecraft well at low settings


It runs really well, no issues within the past week

Relatively easy to set up. Nice screen, keypad is very nice, good tactile feel, illuminated. Took about an hour to set it up, lots a gibberish to go through for Microsoft, nothing the fault of Asus. Had McAfee installed, I removed it. Windows Defender will suffice. Had trial period for MS Office installed, did not accept it, OpenOffice will suffice. Loaded Chrome and set up the Google Account. Touch pad was set to medium sensitivity, too sensitive, so set it to low and that worked better.





- Goop, Goop, Goop!



So much fun! Handles graphics very well with the NVidia 5050. The display is beautiful. Laptop super quiet. Completely silent during regular work and the airflow is done so well that the fans are still very quiet under load. Dont even notice them.


Perfect physical condition Everything (camera, keyboard, charging cord, etc) in perfect order Runs very smoothly, like new Exactly as advertised (better, really, because you'd never know it was refurbished) Great battery life


Good performance Cost-effective solution

No issue upgrading the ram to 96GB DDR5 5600 and two 4TB nvme drives.
