82.6% Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC (Ryzen 7 1700, Radeon RX 580) Laptop Review | Notebookcheck
Sensation. While AMD's Ryzen architecture has already been available in the desktop range for several months, the notebook range had to wait patiently for a long time. The waiting is over now: Asus is the first manufacturer who provided us with a gaming laptop with 8-core CPU and Radeon RX 580. Our review will reveal whether the bundle is able to challenge a combination of Intel and Nvidia hardware.

The Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC is fast, especially in multi-tasking, but poor components and unbalanced design hinder it in other departments.

Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC Laptop Review
Source: Hardwareheaven English Archive.org version
Our Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC laptop review demonstrates that the AMD Ryzen 7 1700 delivers fantastic multi-threaded performance that will help tackle all sorts of tough tasks – but the presence of desktop components is a double-edged sword. It contributes to poor battery life and disappointing thermal results. The desktop chip falls behind mobile rivals in single-threaded applications.

The Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC’s desktop processor may deliver great multi-threaded performance, but this power- hungry CPU, as well as the desktop Radeon RX 580 GPU, also contribute excessive heat and noise.

ASUS Strix GL702Z Ryzen Laptop Review
Source: Overclock3d English Archive.org version
Such has been the dominance of Intel over a couple of generations now that the majority of gaming laptops that come through the OC3D offices run a combination of an Intel laptop-spec quad core and then an nVidia GPU that fits whichever price point the laptop arrives at.

The Strix GL702ZC indeed presents a high value proposition if you’re after the most overall performance for your money. Its AMD Ryzen 7 1700 eight-core chip makes it a beast of a machine for grunt work like encoding and rendering. It did just fine in our gaming benchmarks, too; the Radeon RX 580 inside this unit was on par with the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 in competing laptops.

ASUS ROG GL702Z Ryzen Gaming Laptop Review
Source: eTeknix English Archive.org version
All this laptop had to do is compete with similarly priced Intel offerings, and it certainly did. It beats Intel in the multi-tasking and rendering, and it’s almost as fast when it comes to gaming. Throw in a few bonus features like an LED lit keyboard, punch speakers, impressive cooling, robust connectivity, and FreeSync, and you’ve got a great value for money bundle. It’s not as light and mobile as some may desire, but few 17.3-inch display laptops are, if any!

If you came to read this review looking for a confirmation of why you should buy the GL702ZC for gaming, you are going to be disappointed. From all the data that we’ve gathered, it seems like the ASUS ROG Strix GL702ZC is more of a workstation than a gaming laptop for two main reasons.

The ROG Strix GL702ZC is a pretty well-built laptop. The speakers are excellent, and the display doesn’t annoy you with poor viewing angles or washed out colors. The keyboard also feels good to type on, so the overall user experience is quite positive.

Again, ASUS has deveoped a purpose-built notebook that completely closes the gap between desktop and laptop. Normally when we say desktop replacement, we normally refer to the gaming performance of a system but in this case its a complete top-down solution bringing true desktop class performance on the go thanks to its 8-core Ryzen CPU. While it may identify as a gaming product, the ASUS ROG Strix GL702ZC 8-core gaming laptop is a professional workstation thoroughbred capable of delivering so much more.

Comment

AMD Radeon RX 580 (Laptop): Polaris 20 based high-end graphics card for laptops, manufactured in an improved 14nm process (LPP+). Should be similar to the desktop Radeon RX 580 and perform similar to a RX 480.

With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


R7 1700: Desktop 8-core CPU based on the Zen architecture. Clocks with 3 to 3.75 GHz (XFR) and offers SMT (16 threads). Fastest Ryzen CPU at launch in early 2017. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


17.30": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem. DTR are mainly intended for stationary desk use, where weight and energy hunger don't matter. In return, you enjoy the advantages of high resolutions (more details, better legibility).» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


3.2 kg:

A laptop with this weight is comparatively heavy and less designed for mobility than for use at the desk. Therefore, the devices tend to shine less with battery life than with a large screen and higher performance.


Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. is a major Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer based in Taipei, founded in 1989. Under the Asus brand name, the company manufactures a wide range of products, including laptops, desktops, motherboards, graphics cards, monitors, smartphones and networking equipment, complete systems and PC components for end users.

Under the ROG (Republic of Gamers) brand name, ASUS manufactures gaming laptops known by gamers for their powerful specifications, dedicated graphics cards, high refresh rate displays and advanced cooling systems.

Beyond gaming, a wide range of notebooks are offered for different needs and budgets, from ultra-slim and lightweight ultrabooks to versatile 2-in-1 convertibles and budget-friendly options. In 2023, Asus had a 7% global market share of the PC market.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues.


77.96%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
