Asus ROG Strix GL502VS Notebook Review | Notebookcheck
Let the games begin. Asus sent us one of the first 15-inch notebooks with the extremely fast Pascal GPU GeForce GTX 1070. The informed reader expects big performance gains and is not disappointed. The manufacturer focuses on continuity for the other aspects of the system, which is usually the correct decision.

So, if the mentioned points don’t bother you too much and it’s the performance that ultimately matter to you the most, go for Asus ROG Strix 502VS.

The ASUS ROG Strix GL502VS Review: Mainstream GTX 1070 with G-SYNC
Source: AnandTech Archive.org version
ASUS has built a powerful gaming system, with all the latest technology inside. The Core i7-6700HQ is well known, and very capable. There will likely be a Kaby Lake update for quad-core processors soon, and we’ll see how they compare, but for now this is a capable CPU for a portable computer. The NVIDIA GTX 1070 is a very large step up from the GTX 970M, with performance that is right in-line with two GTX 980M cards in SLI. We’ve been waiting for FinFET for years on the GPU side, and it has paid off. In addition, it has up to 8 GB of GDDR5, and if you are interested in this notebook be very sure you are getting the 8 GB model since games like Rise of the Tomb Raider already use more the 4 GB on maximum settings.

ASUS ROG Strix GL502 gaming notebook preview: Orange is the new black
Source: Hardware Zone Archive.org version
We’d argue that NVIDIA’s new mobile Pascal GPUs add a ton of value to any purchase of a gaming laptop. Before, we were always disinclined to recommend gaming laptops to serious gamers looking for the best bang for their buck, because a desktop would always be far faster and cost less. But now that the Pascal cards are offering performance on a similar level as previous generation flagship desktop cards – or even rivaling their desktop equivalents – buying a gaming laptop like the ROG Strix GL502 has never looked as enticing as now.

ASUS ROG STRIX GL502VS Review
Source: Yugatech Archive.org version
The ASUS ROG STRIX GL502VS is one beast of a gaming machine although it doesn’t come with a bigger 17-inch display and Ultra HD resolution. We totally enjoyed playing on its Full HD display and pair of high-quality stereo speakers. Other than for gaming, we also were able to utilize its capabilities in video editing as it was able to playback video smoothly even without rendering it first.

Finally, A Gaming Notebook As Powerful As A Desktop
Source: Unbox Archive.org version
First off, Battlefield 1. Playing the beta on the highest resolution possible (full HD) with everything set to Ultra but with DX12 off, we were getting frames as high as 100. The game’s overall framerate never dipped past 57 frames. Similarly, Rise Of The Tomb Raider’s Very High Preset in the same resolution, DX12 off returned frames as high as 92, with the lowest frames coming in at 26 for an average of 57 FPS. Those are impressive numbers from a notebook, and we’ll be putting the GL502VS under stress in more games during the review process.

ASUS ROG Strix GL502VS (GTX 1070) review – the low-end high-ender
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
The ASUS ROG GL502VS should have been a more affordable 15-inch solution but instead, it rivals the 15-inch Acer Predator 15 (G9-593) and fails to match its features and performance. Yes, sure the Predator 15 costs $100-150 more but these pennies are definitely worth it. Not only does the Predator 15 stands out with a more sturdy and pleasant build but also offers more storage configurations and always ships with an NMVe-enabled SSD. We also liked the keyboard and touchpad way more.

Regardless, this laptop has totally revolutionised the performance we can expect from a laptop, putting many regular desktops to shame.

Asus Strix GL502VS-FY030T
Republic of Gamers, this is what Asus likes to call its game oriented laptops. So, here we are with the Asus Strix GL502VS-FY030T. First of all, it is really easy to say it is a nice model. Starting from the look of the model, you get an aluminum lid and rugged polycarbonate base. The other parts are mostly plastic. But you do not get the feeling that there are cutting-corners to reduce the price tag. It is a bit thicker compared to other models from MSI, Razor or Asus, but it has so much performance inside, that you can overlook that part. Talking about components, a very powerful Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 is accompanied by an Intel Core l7-6700HQ. These two alone are enough to guarantee a very fast system. But, you get a conventional HDD. Of course you can replace it with an SSD and make your system even faster. One thing to criticize is you get an older generation processor. Right now there are other models with Kaby Lake processors, but this one uses an older Skylake model. Is there a big difference? Well, not that much to affect your game play. You might expect that the system temperature become unbearable due to the powerful components, but Asus placed two large vents at the rear of the case and one at the bottom. They manage to keep the system cool. The system gets hot at the bottom when games are played, but when you put the device on a surface, you will not even notice it. Palm areas etc. do not get hot at all. As it is said, there are big vents, so when performance needed, the fans go crazy. As a result, you get loud fans. But they are not too audible. Placing a passive cooler under the device helps the cooling system and can reduce the fan noise. A matte IPS screen is used. It has full sRBG coverage and does its job just fine. Users can enjoy videos, photos etc. But battery is where the device loses its shine. The battery can only deliver 3.4 to 4 hours under very light load. But, this is to be expected with such a powerful hardware. If you are an avid gamer who does not want to sacrifice mobility, with just 2.4 kg, the Asus Strix GL502VS-FY030T is just for you. Its connectivity options are also future proof and with its price tag, it is easy to say that it will be a good investment. But if you are someone that will mainly use this device for multimedia purposes or you are just a casual gamer who happens to play some minecraft or similar games, you should be looking for other alternatives. Of course you can have this beautiful device, but there are cheaper models that will just cut it for you. This device is good for gamers who like to be mobile and want a rather small device with a very good performance. The Asus Strix GL502VS-FY030T definitely delivers and is worth the investment.

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.
With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Mobile: Pascal based high-end mobile graphics card based on a cut down GP104 (like the GTX 1080) and GDDR5 graphics memory. Successor to the GTX 980M with a 10 Watts higher TDP. Similar to the desktop GTX 1070 performance wise, but with more shaders and lower clock speeds.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
6700HQ: Skylake-based quad-core processor for notebooks. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 530 GPU and is manufactured in 14 nm.
Intel Kaby Lake:
i7-7700HQ: Quad-core notebook processor based on the Kaby Lake architecture. Besides four CPU cores (including Hyper Threading), the chips also integrates the HD Graphics 630 GPU and is manufactured in an improved 14 nm process.
