Great laptop.

This is an awesome laptop. I added 8 gig of ram and also a 1 TB SSD drive and this computer has no issues with gaming. I’ve run World of Warships and Total War WarHammer III and they run just fine. The screen size is perfect for an older gentleman like me. I would highly recommend this laptop to all looking for a great machine at a great price!!

Runs great!

I have not put the laptop in her stress tests yet. I will soon run the Unreal Engine or the Unity Engine editors soon. Also Blender and do some animation renders. So far, all the creative apps I've installed run great! There is a slight performance issue with speed I have noticed when I have my 13" Huion KAMVAS drawing tablet hooked up to this machine, she will slow down a bit when I am running a 2D painting program such as Clip Studio Paint on her while only using the machine's battery - and not hooked up to the power. But it is obvious I believe, I am supposed to have it hooked up to the A/C Power anyway cause the tablet utilizes more of its resources anyway.

Just wow

This PC is amazing. Its lightning fast and I have had zero issues with anything so far. I use it for gaming and streaming, and the FPS rate is awesome. I've never had such a fast computer. The only issue I'm experiencing is the storage is nearly full already but it's easily upgradable since there is an empty SSD slot. Super happy with this purchase!!

Happy Enough. (Is that a thing?)

Love the unit itself once I figured out the wooly-booga navigation of Windows 11. The name rings true; it's Tuf like the old Panasonic Toughbooks from long ago; without the aesthetic "appeal" of a Terminator deuce. Overall, very pleased. Will (and have) recommend(ed) it to friends and family I like...

2021 ASUS TUF Gaming F17

Love the durability of the laptop. I am a pounder on keys.. and this keyboard is holding up very well. Love that it has a tough shell as well, not easily breakable plastic. The mouse pad has the mouse buttons which are a MUST for me. Wish the buttons were slightly bigger, not so narrow. A downside so far is that the MediaTek WiFi has had problems. It does not always work which means no wifi. I downloaded a driver from someone.. not a ASUS driver and I will see how it goes. Otherwise, i have to disable and then reboot for MediaTek WiFi to work. :( The other downside is very limited battery time. I have not clocked it, but it seems like I have to keep plugged in for the most part... maybe last 2 hours unplugged at best. Overall, I am doing okay getting adjusted to a new laptop, and am grateful I found this one as other options in the market did not look promising for my requirements. Would I buy again.. Yes.

Improvements Needed on Speakers and Cooling Fan

Great laptop. Such an upgrade from my previous one. I do love it!! However, I think this specific laptop is overpriced for what it offers. Personally, I'm not using it for gaming - but I did want an excellent video card for using high-intensity programs. What it lacks is the ability to delivery strong sound. This seems to be something that goes hand in hand with video output - having high quality audio output. This is a negative - for both gamers and just your regular music lovers. In addition to that, it could have a better built-in fan to keep the CPU from running too hot. These two things could be greatly improved given the high price for this laptop.

Very short battery life, graphics not good.

I thought this was going to be a great gaming laptop to play the Sims on but at times it runs choppy and the colors aren’t as vibrant as I thought they would be. Also it says it has a 10 hour battery life and mine doesn’t even last an hour unplugged. I’m also not sure if all of the Sims games I own downloaded because I saw a few the other day that I swore I already had and it said to purchase beside them when it should’ve said in library. I also saw the same exact laptop for less than I paid the other day so I’m not sure what I should do, should I call them or just take it back?

Better be tech savvy to use this one

Not sure, but it seems it needed Windows updates at least 3 times. Bluetooth worked for 2 days then no BT. Took hours of undo updates, reinstall BT drivers and finally got that working. Now there appears to be no print spooler on the machine. Been too busy doing my business on my old Lenovo to spend more valuable time with this ASUS. Pretty bad when a new computer with 2 printers installed can't print. Wonder what other surprises await me.

I had to return my Asus laptop.

I had to send my Laptop back because of bad image warnings right out of the box. The laptop also keep freezing while playing a game that only needed half the requirements it took to play the game. The home screen was also tearing and glitching all around, I only had the computer for about 4 days and barley got to use it.
