❌ You want new generation components: The RTX 40-Series is certainly tempting, but you won't find any configurations offering such GPUs in this F15 model.ĭesign: Cheap gaming laptops rarely look this good. ❌ You play particularly demanding games: If, however, you've got Starfield, Baldur's Gate 3, and Cyberpunk 2077 lined up you might want to think about investing in something a little more equipped. Add in the fact that it's actually coming in at a reasonable price considering the competition within this range and you've got yourself a stunning machine.
BEST BUDGET GAMING LAPTOP 2022 PORTABLE
It's not as powerful as the 18-inch Scar 18, but it's infinitely more portable - and therefore far more useable in real life settings.
Verdict: The Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 is the best Asus gaming laptop we've seen yet overall. While reaching these benchmark dizzying heights I really valued the boosted thermal design of 2023's iteration. This was comfortable to run on a lap for a couple of hours at a time - something we can't say for the majority of high performance laptops that come through our doors. Of course, this thing wasn't running cool or silent, but the additional cooling tech packed in here is certainly doing its job. What was all the more surprising, though, was the ability of the Strix Scar 16 to do all this without heating up all that much. Of course, a machine running these specs is going to be impressive. That's incredible performance from both the lightning fast CPU and RTX 4080 graphics card we were testing with. Not only that, but beefier titles like Metro Exodus and Red Dead Redemption 2 never dropped below 90fps.
We managed to maintain three figure framerates in Shadow of the Romb Raider and The Division 2 on Ultra settings in QHD+ resolution - that's not something we can say about many rigs. Performance: With an i9-13980HX processor at the helm, there's nothing the Strix Scar 16 can't handle.
If you're going to be installing your laptop to run at a desk semi-permanently, that's going to mean a lot of cables everywhere. Unfortunately for fans of the series, the additional fans do mean the ports have been relegated back to the sides of the Strix Scar 16. This is one of the best laptop screens we've come across, and paired with a silky smooth 240Hz refresh rate there's plenty to love. That means excellent contrast, vivid colors, and slick attention to detailing. Features: Asus has packed its high-end laptops with its Nebula HDR Mini-LED display this year.
