Reviews for the Asus TUF Gaming A15 FA506, Ryzen 5 4600H

Asus TUF Gaming A15 hands-on review: AMD meets Nvidia
Source: Laptop Mag English Archive.org version
The TUF Gaming A15 is an interesting laptop that gamers on a budget should keep an eye out for. It has a 15.6-inch display with a fast refresh rate and AMD FreeSync technology so action should look smooth.

Asus updates TUF Gaming A15 FA506 and F15 FX506 series – initial review, vs TUF FX505
Source: Ultrabook Review English Archive.org version
Overall, even if the updated TUF FA506/FX506 address some of my complaints about the previous generations, like battery life, audio and screen quality, they still remain primarily value gaming notebooks and aim to primarily provide excellent performance for the money.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mobile: Mid range dedicated graphics card for laptops based on the desktop GTX 1660 Ti and therefore the Turing architecture without raytracing and Tensor cores. The performance of the Max-P variant should be similar to an older GTX 1070.

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

R5 4600H: Mobile Hexa-Core APU using Zen 2 cores clocked at 3 to 4 GHz and a Vega graphics card with 6 CUs clocked at up to 1500 MHz.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


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.
