I encountered a problem coil whine On a computer like this, be careful with your copy rtx3050 i5 12gen

Good review man keep doing that
I don't generally subscribe to pages where English is spoken since I don't understand much but you do such a good job compared to your number of subscribers it's incredible.
The effort you've put in this video speaks for itself! W review
I ordered mine and I'll get it tomorrow. Yay! 😊😊

Nice production quality.. Keep it up bro !!!
Appreciate it!!
Great review. How does the screen look while watching movies? how long does battery last while watching movies?
Great video ✨✨
Amazing review bro
Excellent vid, great quality. I have the same laptop too and its just perfect for me. All the things you've stated are true. I'm actually surprised on how efficient it is comparing to my old laptop. Overall a great laptop but depending on the model and region it usually comes with a 500gb SSD and only 8gb ram so an upgrade is a must. I totally would recommend this laptop.
Glad it's serving ya well! Appreciate the kind words and thanks for watching!
Insightful. I wish we got the white variant worldwide
Last Thumbnail Was Cleaaaaaan
The Video is Just😘
damn man! you deserve more 1 million susbcribers!!!
Can't believe this channel have less than 500 subscribe. Very good video, and nice explanation.
Appreciate the kind words. Thank you for watching!
Keep going bro
You're legend ❤️
Give this man more subscribers.
A really great vid man, ofcourse there were some moments that were not perfect or not done well but considering you are fairly new to the game, well done
You earned a subscriber nonetheless
Appreciate it man, thanks for watching!
a bright future ahead bro 🙂
You remind me of mrwhoistheboss, keep up the great work 🔥
the production quality looks like a big ass youtuber, you are underrated asf bro
❤❤
Thanks man, appreciate ya!
You are really. I was trying to find a good laptop reviewer 8n india. You review looks the cleanest and insightful
Thanks a lot dude! Glad you liked it!
the way you review this laptop is very cool
Great video style in terms of edits. Unique style made me stay for the entire video
Happy you liked it. Thanks a lot for watching!
This was a pretty good video, but please include bios settings (options to go into advance settings) and ram upgradability next time!
Keep going brother ❤❤❤
Well beautiful animations, good commentary. Subscribed instantly.
Do you think 7940hs 4070 worth over 7735hs 4060?
Sorry for the late response. Yes, but it depends on your needs. If you're a casual editor/designer/gamer, the 4060 and ryzen 7 7735hs would suffice. If you need something more powerful for intensive workloads the 7940hs plus 4070 combination would be the better choice.
How did you change the color of the keyboard in blue in static mode? I dont like the red color I want the blue color if possible.
Whoa Whoa! That was great editing dude... Also you possess great knowledge about Laptops. All the best for your youtube journey :)
Thanks you so much! Appreciate ya!
@@SiddharthToprani I saw you have only two videos, and yes getting these devices to review is expensive at early stage. Consider making Shorts.. You can make many of them and they go viral more easily. Plus you can source device info from internet ;)
Bro would u prefer an asus rog strix g 16 $900 varient over this one
BANGERS ONLY
I cannot believe that you have just 500 subs. Your video looks like you do this everyday. You gained a new subscriber. I managed to get the TUF A15 at 715 euro, as it was a opened one by the store employees. You are right by saying this is a perfect laptop
Appreciate the kind words! Thanks a lot for watching!
Almost got convinced to buy this after the first 20 seconds
Is it recommended to buy this in 2024? Or better get the recent one?
Holysbit, glad i found this review. Very nicely explained ans well edited video. Very clear about everything, well mostly everything i need.
One question, whats the maximum wattage of gpu tho? I know its at 140 in ads but likr where does it cap at?
Hey, from my testing in all titles, it caps around 95. Unless I'm rendering videos or stress testing it, those are the only 2 times I see it exceed that limit. While stress testing it will push to 140. Glad you liked the video, and thanks a ton for watching!
@@SiddharthToprani Wow, then this is the best for my buck rn. Thanks for the info! ♥️
hello guys I bought this laptop couple days ago, coming from disktop pc I'm experiencing so much frame drops and stutters and I tried a friend's 3060 Lenovo laptop and I saw the same drops and stutters but he wasn't noticing any problems, is it a common thing for laptops or we both have a problem to solve because I couldn't solve it no matter what
there is jeager grey colour too (same colour but diff design ig) ( or sorry idk if it was there till 2022 variant only)
Underrated 🔥🔥🔥
THANKS FOR THIS VID ITS SO HELPFUL! But some people can’t help me with something in specific like can I get full performance of this laptop with a monitor or not? Or will the performance improve im not sure.. pls help me answer this question idk if this laptop is worth it if it won’t preform well with a 2.1hdmi monitor
I've been using this as my main system alongside my Odyssey G7 Monitor (1440p @ 240hz). The feature you're referring to is a mux switch which if enabled will directly connect the laptop to its display using the nvidia gpu, bypassing the integrated graphics, this can provide a decent boost in fps. On this system in Asus's armoury crate software, the "Ultimate GPU Mode' setting does exactly this, regardless of whether you've connected the laptop to an external display or not. If you have this mode on, you're utilising the maximum potential of the laptop across all workloads. Also, it does support hdmi 2.1 so you can be rest assured it will support your monitor. Thanks for watching!
Does it have additional slot in this model ASUS TUF A15 (2023) FA577NU-LP082W.
Please provide me information about this model
Blud do review the 2024 version when it drops in
The quality of content is very nice 🙂 and can u make a review of Lenovo LOQ.
Appreciate it man! Well, if this video skyrockets in the next couple days/weeks I'll reach out to Lenovo and see if they're interested in sending a review unit. This is just my second video so... 🤞🏻
Can you do a review on the tuf a16 advantage edition?
hey brother great video
under 90k, are there any better laptops now.in april 2024??or should i go for this one?
Not really. Most laptops either sacrifice performance or battery life. This serves as a good middle ground. If you can, I'd suggest getting the ryzen 9 7940hs variant of this laptop, or the 2024 model with the ryzen 9 8940hs, whichever you can get a better offer on. I feel sometimes the cpu holds this back. If you don't have a very cpu intensive workload, rest assured, the ryzen 7 7735hs should work just fine. Hope this helps. Thanks a lot for watching!
Hello there i am.thinking of buying this laptop but i would like an opinion for its display . At 1:55 on your video is this the brightness on full?
Yes, it's on max brightness. I would say though, it was quite a sunny day. That said, even using it indoors I usually incline to keeping the brightness a notch or two below the max brightness. Hope this helps. Thanks a lot for watching!
Good video.
So at 2:14 I observed that your 8 ,M , I ,K have 2 differernt colors , is that a product defect or does all TUF models have that same issue.Even my ASUS TUF F15 model has 2 colors on the Diagonal side of these keys and when the RGB is set to while it quite looks awkward, So i have kept it as static blue.
I hadn't noticed this actually, thanks for pointing it out. I think that the split in colors on certain keys when set to white could be due to variations in LED placement and light diffusion. Apparently I did a quick search on this and it is not uncommon to experience slight color variations in RGB lighting setups, especially on keyboards with fewer lighting zones. These variations can result from the way the LEDs are positioned and how the light is distributed across the keys. It's a technical limitation that might cause certain colors, including white, to appear slightly different across different keys. And hey, I also set mine to a tealish blue colour, looks quite sick 😏
Your production quality is like mkbhd, and the subs dont justice it it like 10 million content man
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
wait. so is the lid metal or plastic?
Bro u didn't add link for adding ssd to lap
Why i get only 240 fps in valorant (medium settings, during buy phase) and 140-170 when people are using their abilities? (Btw i have upgraded version (32 gb ram and 1tb ssd))
Nice
Hey Sidharth, I've been looking to purchase this laptop and I'm a bit stressed out about the number of people who've been having quality problems with their models, so I'm wondering what's your take on them. I'm deciding whether to just take the leap or opt for a Legion with a 3050ti which is much more underpowered but has a much lower chance of any issues. Cheers!
Hey man, thanks for reaching out! Honestly, I've been using it everyday since the past 4 months. I take it to work too and use it there for around 3 to 4 hours, with around 30 to 40 percent battery left on the system. I haven't faced any issues so far. Though, I do understand your concern. I'd suggest you to check their respective warranty programs and just have a look if you have any service centers around you for either of the companies where if the need may arise you could get it replaced/repaired. I've noticed with gaming laptops, it's often the case where people may end up with a faulty unit, having been on the same boat with my previous Acer Aspire 7 laptop which was showcased to have 6 to 7 hours of battery in the reviews I saw, but ended up giving me only 2 hours on a good day. If you do find a lack of proper support from ASUS in your area, just go for the lenovo instead. If you're budget allows, I'd also suggest checking out the Lenovo LOQ from this year.
commenting now to come back when you've achieved a million subs, which im damn sure you will!
Appreciate the support. Thanks for watching!
Great Video. Since the new Asus Tuf A15 2024 edition just came out but it seem to come out with a weaker processor but with a good display (100% srgb 500nits). The new configuration is Ryzen 5 7535hs which has less core than Ryzen 7 7535hs. I really want to know your opinion on this since you seem very knowledgeable. Anyway gave a like for this amazing video.
Hey, I'd say if I had to nitpick on the 2023 model, it would have probably been the processor, while it was quite efficient, it lagged behind the Intel processor by quite a noticeable amount. A few months later after this model's launch, Asus had launched the same model with a Ryzen 9 7940hs. That was a much-needed improvement as it was better in sync with the power of the 4060. Now with the 2024 models, they've sort of further diversified the models across regions, and the one you're referring to seems a slight downgrade even to the 7735 hs model that I reviewed. If it's much cheaper compared to the model I've reviewed which was around 1100 to 1200 usd at the time of launch, I'd say go for it. If not, you might be better off looking for other laptops. Appreciate your kind words and thanks a lot for watching!
@@SiddharthToprani Interesting opinion. The 2024 edition is only cheaper by $50. I also agree Intel CPU might be a better option since everywhere I go has a socket or plug available. Might wait a little until Q3 or Q4 of 2024 to finally make a decision. Overall, your opinion has helped me. Once again I like to thank you and hope you have great success in the future. Best of luck to you.
Great video!❤️✨️
1:50 I'm subscribing just for that joke 😂
Anyway, do you recommend me to buy the RTX 4050 or 4060 model ? I'm planning to buy the exact same config as you, I just can't decide between it being 100$ cheaper or having better graphics... Do you think the higher price is worth it?
Appreciate ya man! You can't go wrong with either honestly, they both are good value at their respective prices. But i know ending it right there would be quite diplomatic. If you're more of a creative person, maybe in the realm of graphic designing, editing, motion graphics, etc, get the 4050, it'll suffice you for occasional gaming sessions just fine. If you're a hardcore gamer though, I'd suggest getting the 4060 variant, gives you extra headroom for some demanding titles. Thanks for watching!
why do i smell a future influencer here!
kudos, your videos are exceed my expectations everytime, and i love the extra effort you put..
however you do look quite sad while talking, no offence
an energetic persona revamp may give slightly better results!
anyways, ggs
None taken, I agree. Had been staring at that face for around a week while I was editing the video 😂. Definitely something I've been working on since filming this. Thanks for the suggestion and thanks a lot for watching!
Your video was in my recommendation so you must be doing something good! haha. Really greate editing and review keep up the good work....
Thanks a ton man! Glad you liked it!
the best and most informative review of the a15 I have seen ,the asus tuf a15 2023 (ryzen 7 and 4060)and legion 5 2022(i7 and 3060)are the same price in my country. which should i buy?
Appreciate the support! I'd say get the A15 by a long shot. Ryzen is much better in terms of efficiency compared to Intel and the 4060 is newer and better than the 3060.
@@SiddharthToprani thx bro
Hey bro, don't forget me after you get famous! .... jk
just a minute but useful suggestion to you -
The gaming part of the video needs to be a bit longer and more detailed like most of my favorite youtubers do and ya one more is that your face didn't blend with the bg...
Great Quality not only visually but content wise as well Keep it up! FR when the video played at the beginning, I thought Its some foreign country content creator by the cinematic Your English is quite fluent, and Your voice is damn sweet to hear as well!
Really appreciate the kind words man! Will be sure to improve upon the points you've mentioned. Thanks a lot for watching!
@@SiddharthToprani ThankYou ! for providing this interesting and engaging content with consistent practices no one is to stop you from reaching those heights!
What is the max capacity of each ssd slot? is it 1TB or 2TB? and the ssd type is 2280 right?
Yes, it's 2TB per slot. Also yes, it's the standard M.2 2280 ssd type. Thanks a lot for watching!
@@SiddharthToprani Thank you so much, your video really help me, and you also answered my question!
@8:22 what's the limit for that slot? 2 tb?
I'm not sure if there is a limit. Usually RAM slots are limited by the cpu, storage isn't. The max capacity this laptop ships with is 2 TB on its highest configuration, so there's that.
Bro, you have make up mind to really buy this. Rather than buying Zephyrus M16 base model which have RTX 4070. I should just buy TUF A15 with RTX 4070. That way I can save a lot of money. You earned my sub!🎉
Yo tengo la version que tiene un ryzen 5 7535HS con una 4050 y la verdad muy buena ka he podrido exprimir hasta el maximo y de momento todo bien 😁
What’s variant you show in video???
It's the TUF A15, FA507NV.
I went to Micro Center to buy the A15. They had the A17 next to it. I bought the A17 and I couldn't be happier.
Glad to hear your experience has been great! Thanks for watching!
Is it still good?
tuf is just getting better year by year..
I wish I got this one instead of the i7 3060
There's a common probs with all asus laptops which is the motherboard and it fails within 2 yrs and we alrdy know abt their after sales service, i was going to buy rog strix g15 2022 but many recommended me to not buy asus laptops . I m really confused now .
Do asus laptop last long as 5 yrs? Pls reply honestly.
Hi, I'm not sure about this problem. Since it's just been about 4 or 5 months since I've been using my system, it's too early for me to be able to guess how long it will last. What I can say though, is so far, I haven't encountered any major issues. I've been using this system everyday since I got it, for work (creating content for brands) and gaming. I have more screen time on my laptop than my phone on a few days. Whether or not this experience stays the same, is a story only time will tell. If I do encounter any issues in the future, I'll be sure to pin a comment and let everyone know. Also, if their after sales service isn't good in your region, I'd suggest looking for other options, if may or may not be worth the risk or hassle. Thanks for watching!
What is the flashing cross above the keyboard
Those are indicator lights. There are four, Power Indicator, that shows lights up when the device is powered on. Battery Charge Indicator that shows the level at which the device is charged, by turning white or orange. Drive Activity Indicator lights up when any of the drives are active. Aeroplane Mode indicator turns on if aeroplane mode is enabled. Thanks for watching!
Hi,
Which one you will recommend, Asus A15 2023 or Asus Rog Strix G16 2023,
Please reply
The G16 has an Intel i7 13th gen I believe. It's a bit more powerful than the amd one in the tuf, but you would get noticeably less battery life. You won't notice much difference unless you're under highly cpu-intensive workloads. Since most games today are more graphically intensive you can't go wrong with either. The G16 is a bit heavier by 300 grams compared to the tuf, add the power brick and the total weight of the setup would cross 3.2kgs. If you're mostly using it for wall powered use maybe gaming or editing all day, the strix is better. If you prefer portability, and a system that's well rounded and lasts for a good part of the day, go for the tuf. Thanks for watching!
Thanks alot for your reply,
I would like to buy for 3ds max and rendering, which laptop you can recommend me at this price range
The A15 is probably the best value for money laptop out there. It's more than capable enough to run 3ds max. If you want slightly better performance, let's say you're usually gonna be near an outlet, it might be better to get the G16 or the TUF F15, both with Intel options. Though if you value portability, the A15 won't disappoint you.
Finally after watching so many videos, I know I can add 1 more ssd😭
How much fps did you get on fortnite or other games
In fortnite, I get mostly above 200 fps and almost a lock 240 in most areas on performance mode playing competitive. If I recall correctly, same for overwatch and valorant. I've mentioned all the game benchmark results as graphs in the video, you can check those out. Thanks for watching!
does the keyboard feel nice? even tho its not tactile like other laptops? , oh and thx for the detailed review i rly appreciate that
It's quite soft to type on, and oddly satisfying in a way, while it's not as tactical, you'll know when you're pressing the keys so chances of missing keys while typing isn't really an issue I've had. Hope this helps and thanks a lot for watching!
@SiddharthToprani is it just mushy or does it have like a lil tactileness ?
It does have a bit of tactility. It's hard to explain lol, but I can say it doesn't feel like one of those old chicklet style keyboards, you can feel the keystrokes just fine. It's more than good enough for gaming and typing.
@@SiddharthToprani thx 😊
I have this laptop, 4060 version, it’s pretty good
Bro which is better??????
Ausu TUF F15 i5 11400H rtx 3050 (Rs.62k) VS
Lenovo IdeaPad gaming 3 ryzen 7 6800H rtx 3050 (Rs.63k) ????
Please respond fast 😢
Both are same range
I'd say the F15. It is slightly more powerful and has a slightly larger battery size. I don't have any experience using either of the systems, so what I'm saying is solely based on the specs I'm seeing.
dont you have stuttering issue in your games? can i ask what Nvidia driver versionn you're using?
I haven't faced any stuttering or throttling whatsoever in any games. I'm on the latest Nvidia Driver as of today.
@@SiddharthToprani I see that. May I know what games you have tested so far?
@@pedrwm I've tested quite a few so far, some competitive titles like Apex Legends, Fortnite, Valorant, Overwatch 2, CS:Go. And some others like Miles Morales, Hogwarts Legacy, Cyberpunk 2077, FIFA 23, Konami's eFootball, and the new Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart. The ones I've extensively played would be Fortnite, Overwatch, Miles Morales, Hogwarts, FIFA and Ratchet and Clank, (the latter 4 of which I've played on High to Max Graphics with Raytracing and DLSS) and I haven't faced any issues.
@@SiddharthToprani thanks for your response! Out of all of those games, I have tried Miles Morales and it seems to work fine with the latest driver . I'm pretty sure you'll definitely notice stuttering running the in-game benchmark in Cyberpunk tho. AC Valhalla and NFS Unbound are some others that seem incompatible with non-oem Nvidia drivers on these laptop models. I have to use the OEM driver from ASUS's website to eliminate most of the issue but the latest OEM driver is months old now and ASUS don't seem to bother with updating them.
I have not run the in-game benchmark for cyberpunk, but when I was just moving around the city, I didn't seem to notice any stutters, apart from the first time I booted the game, in which case, it was mostly just shader buildup, and quickly fixed itself. Haven't tried Valhalla or Unbound yet. Have you tried clean installing the drivers via DDU? Btw, just to clarify, do you have this year's A15 as well?@@pedrwm
