Asus TUF A17 - The Best Gaming Laptop At $850!!! 

Very good price and value! I have a same gaming laptop (2022) version. Very good. The cooling system is upgraded. My graph set is FHD/60 fps (24/7) and only 60-65 celsius with cooling pad. The A17 is a very good choice! Little upgrade: 1TB SSD this year, and perfect.

I must have the older version because mine is black

Thanks, great review. I love this laptop. I do find the fans mildly annoying though when they're on - the minimum speed is about 2500rpm (any lower and they're off entirely, even in manual mode) and are a bit irritating at that speed when doing quiet activities eg word processing.

For Asus to block the speaker grills on the bottom and have the grill on the side, i think it's to create bass like sound effect

Holy that price for a full config is insane. It's nay impossible to find that configuration in my country at that price.

Thank you for such a comprehensive review. I just bought this Laptop last week and So far I love it! May I ask if you can recommend a compatible docking station for this laptop?

@HardwareSense Thanks for the video. I think this is the ONLY video on RU-vid regarding this specific Walmart deal. I was able to pick it up for $849.99 on Cyber Monday. So far so good. My son loves it so far. I removed the bloatware and changed some Windows 11 settings. Lastly in the MyASUS app I set the battery to only charge up to 60% since it's primarily a gaming laptop and will be plugged in probably all the time. Despite some others talking bad about this laptop and especially the MediaTek WiFi card, I don't know what they are talking about. This ASUS TUF Gaming A17 laptop for $849.99 at Walmart was a AWESOME deal for my son's needs plus I got the 3 year Allstate Warranty for an additional $88. PS: I may add a 1TB or 2TB SSD later if I find a super deal but that is it. Happy Holidays!

So I take it the Ryzen 7 is faster than the 5th gen Intel i5 found in the 2021 build? This would be my first laptop purchase. Will be using it to manage my personal finances and some gaming in my spare time.

Bough the 2550 x 1600p, 165 Hz version. Can’t wait. I also have the 2020 version. Ooops, I ordered the 15” one… 😅

you can aucutually take these to 64 gigs of ram and in DDR5 you might even get to use 128 gig of ram as well but for sure 64 gigs ASUS even said with my f17 that has DDR4 that it maxed at 32 but other infor lead me to try 64 and it takes is perfect and addresss all 64 gigs now my processor does accept 128 gigs how ever i cant seem to fine 2 64 gigs sticks of DDR4 so i susupect ill need a better laptop with DDR5 for that..

This is my work laptop lol i love it

Thanks, excellent video, I'll go for it.

I just ordered the 3070ti version for $1,250 :)

That sticker inside underneath serves an obvious and extremely important purpose.

i forgot to ask, how was the screen? I heard some complaints about it.

How does the MUX switch work? And where can I set my 3070ti to run all the time?

4:25 its actually hdmi 2.1 with a 3000 series gpu

Which ram should I buy for this specific laptop and which is good? I need to upgrade to 32 gigs

I absolutely love your content.

I just chatted with Asus support agent that told me the max hard drive is 1 TB per m.2 slot and that greater could crash the computer. I don't know enough about computers and the agent didn't seem to either, but I believe you added a 2 TB drive in this video and wondering if you could explain or speculate. Also, you mentioned 32 GB possible on the RAM but the website shows "up to 24 GB". I'm confused. Also, could you share the motherboard model #? Thanks.

Can you install the m.2 SSD and ram without removing the battery?

Can anyone tell me how good this is on roblox, trying to find a laptop for my sister and I want one that runs max graphics on most games without much hassle cause she ONLY plays roblox and she’s been using a rlly old Hp pavilion that crawls to a halt just opening a browser

I have had a nightmare with my A17, would stay away, Blue screen a month after the warranty ran out, completely fed up. Even replaced my hard drive. Nothing works.
