98% The Close-to-Perfect FA506IH-AS53 ASUS TUF A15

This is a great machine in terms of performance and price balance. It cuts here and there but, it does not compromise what is really important on a gaming laptop. This laptop is an ideal device for students who want also to game, light video editing, and gamers out of the box. The dedicated GPU, SSD, dual-channel upgradable 8GB fast memory (at 3200MHz), 144Hz screen, and CPU that competes with a desktop’s CPU performance, all of these at about 700 bucks is just unheard of. Oh and an Ethernet port on a laptop! If you want a portable form-factor of a desktop gaming PC and a good value “gaming” machine, then this FA506IH-AS53 is your choice!
