Reviews for the Asus Strix Scar II GL504GM-ES155T

ASUS ROG Strix GL504 Scar II: The FPS Gamers’ Dream?
Source: Unbox English Archive.org version
ASUS’ ROG Strix Scar II has become the weapon of choice for us for the three weeks we’ve had it, and suffice to say we’re pretty impressed. The excellent screen with skinny bezels, the solid hardware, top-notch sound and fantastic keyboard make it a great choice for people looking for a powerful notebook to game on. Sure, the Php 104,995 price tag is a little steep, but if you’re already spending a princely sum on a gaming notebook, why not get one of the best options out there?

The Asus Strix Scar II has great performance and a high refresh rate screen with a thin bezel. But it still looks like it was designed in a dorm room.

The ROG Strix Scar II may not feature major changes over its predecessor, but the ones Asus has made are significant, and if the new laptop delivers a similar level of performance it could be a great buy.

Lastly, the are plenty of ports -- the Scar II will have a LAN port, HDMI, one USB Type-C port, one USB 2.0 port, three USB 3.1 ports and a MiniDisplay port -- similar to last year's model.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile: The mobile GTX 1060 is based on the GP106 chip and offer 1280 shaders. Compared to the identically named desktop version it features a slightly lower clock rate. Games in Full HD and maximum details should run fluently on the card.

15.60":

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.
