Reviews for the Asus ROG Strix Scar 16 G634JYR, RTX 4080

ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 16 G634 (2024) review – Performs Like an 18-inch Laptop
Source: Laptop Media English
In short, the 16-inch ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 16 G634 offers the same performance as the big and heavy SCAR 18 G834. The CPU and the GPU can maintain the same clock as the bigger sibling, even the noise levels under load are similar to the 18-incher. This is great news because thanks to the large 3-fan cooling, the noise under full system loads in “Turbo” mode is more than acceptable considering the high-end internals. The “Performance” preset is the secret weapon of this ASUS gadget due to the 160W GPU TGP combined with tamed fan RPM levels.

16.00":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

2.65 kg:

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.


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.


75%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
