Reviews for the Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 G733QSA-KH222R

85% Asus ROG Strix Scar G733QSA Review
Source: Toptenreviews English
The Asus ROG Strix Scar G733 may not have the gaming pace of its rival, but there’s still enough power here to handle games at the screen’s native resolution. This machine fights back with more CPU ability, better thermal operation, superior battery life, a top-notch keyboard and great speakers. The bold looks won’t suit everyone, and the Asus is undeniably expensive too. However, if you’re looking to buy a high-end laptop, this machine combines eye-catching design with well-balanced performance.

100% Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 G733 review: The fastest gaming laptop in town
Source: Expert Reviews English
As I said right at the start, the Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 is as good as it gets for gaming laptops. It would be great if it could be as slim as a Razer Blade, and your back won’t thank you when lugging this 2.7kg machine around, but heavyweight components need to breathe if you want to extract maximum power from them. This bulk, along with the overdraft-inducing cost, is the price you pay for a laptop designed for one thing: to play games at the fastest possible frame rates. All the quality that Asus packs in for company – and note the speakers are booming with bass – is simply a bonus.

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.


2.7 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.
