The ASUS TUF Gaming F16 FX607 (2024) is a capable gaming machine that doesn’t cost a whole fortune. The cooling is massive and this results in high CPU and GPU clocks and power limits during gaming or 3D rendering. If you need the full power of the laptop, you have to apply the “Turbo” mode that comes with a “bonus” – high noise levels. That seems like the main con of this device. Still, the “Performance” preset offers acceptable performance and the fans don’t spin that aggressively. The 1200p IPS display (CSOT MNG007QA1-1 (CSW1639)) is a good choice for gaming. It boasts a 165Hz refresh rate, fast pixel response times (for an IPS screen), and 95% sRGB coverage. Thanks to our “Design and Gaming” profile, the color accuracy reaches an average dE value of just 0.9 and this allows you to use the machine for professional color-sensitive work or content creation.

As per ASUS, there is a continuous demand for entry-to-mid level gaming laptops in the Indian market. While that makes the trimmed-down TUF Gaming F16 a welcome addition, it is positioned in a very awkward spot. The company launched the laptop at a very similar price as its fairly new Gaming V16, at Rs 80,990 only to eventually cut it down to Rs 76,990. Now that’s telling something. On its own, the laptop should be good for most of your daily tasks, including video playback and streaming, school or office work, and even some basic multimedia editing. The GPU is quite underwhelming and will be a lot more suitable for esports titles rather than games with demanding visuals. In comparison, the Acer Nitro V and even the ASUS Gaming V16 seem to offer a much better package, although the latter is priced a tad bit higher at Rs 82,990.

In conclusion, the ASUS TUF Gaming F16 (2025) stands out with its sturdy design, immersive display, and decent single-core performance, making it a reliable option for casual gamers and everyday users. However, it clearly falls behind competitors like the Lenovo LOQ 15IRH8 and Gigabyte G6X in both CPU multi-threaded tasks and GPU-intensive gaming, primarily due to its dated RTX 3050 GPU and DDR4 memory. While it holds up for lighter workloads and esports titles, those seeking high-performance gaming or future-proof specs will find better value in similarly priced alternatives equipped with newer-generation hardware.

The new 2025 model year of ASUS TUF Gaming F16 (FX608JH) can be had for RM5,799 right now, which is quite a bit pricey considering it only gets the lowest-end RTX GPU of the Blackwell generation. We don’t know if that’s just NVIDIA GPUs getting pricier as time goes by or other factors at play, but in any case, this is a decent gaming laptop to go for if you want something more pleasant to daily drive.

16.00:
This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

70.67%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
