UNDERVOLTING 101: CPU EDITION (ASUS TUF F15) -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Lv-lM3ZmndY.html check this new video out and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! 🔥
Just bought one last month with RTX 2050 for $700, brand new with a 3-year warranty, love it. The gaming/ working temperature is around 80-90 degrees tho, I know it's normal for a laptop but still triggers my inner OCD a little when it's above 80-85. Guess I'll change the thermal paste later on
That's nice, it used to be only 1-year warranty, glad they provide more service for ASUS TUF as it gets popular mid to high range laptops! I don't think you need to change thermal paste, that's already good but if you want to, it's fine changing paste will definitely improve temps!
@@bluejcold7453 Idk man you should ask your seller first. If it has a warranty just ask them about the problem, worst case scenario for the laptop they'll give you a new one Unless you bought an old one with no warranty, that's kinda is problematic. I'm not there so idk the real cause of the problem so I can only guess: 1. If it's laggy even in normal use like web-browsing or office works, try to use it while charging, it won't run at its fullest on battery 2. If you're talking about gaming, it's still a mid-range laptop, it can't run smoothly most of the new-gen games, so try lower the settings. For lighter games like e-sports, try turning on V-sync or lock fps
I'm so glad I watched this video before I decided to buy a laptop. I spent months searching for something that's worth my money, and I have this model on my list. I must say that this kind of laptop review, where you went in depth with the longevity of this laptop, helped me decide to buy one. I went with the exact same model, but with an RTX 3050ti. I haven't regretted buying it since then. Thank you.
I've been using mine for over 2 years already and it's still running strong. The thing is a bloody workhorse and the bang for your buck is second to none. I got mine on sale and I've been super happy with it. After watching this video you have alleviated some concerns about the temp running high some times. I definitely need a cooling pad and a stand.
Thanks man! i've been searching for this kind of review for about a week now, and u have the most honest and most accurate of them all, lol ive been using my 2019 asus tuf fx505dy since the day of its release, I am also a video editor and its giving me headache on editing videos as well, it stutters a lot while scrubbing on the timeline. now I think im going to need an upgrade and this Video helped me decide which laptop should I buy next! Thank you for this good review! Kudos to u!
You're welcome man, this is really a complete package laptop you know, you have gaming, performance for different workloads, good normal battery life but i strongly suggest you to get the 90wh, i've been always telling people this as the laptop here in this video is only 48wh!
@hermezx, appreciate the video I have a couple questions how much GB of RAM do you have in your laptop? For some reason on the app of Asus it says I have max capacity of only 24GB of RAM when I check Asus website it shows I can have up 32GB capacity 2x16 sticks, what do you have and recommend? Lastly I want to upgrade my storage I have currently one 512GB NVME SSD - I’m wanted to add another 2TB NVME SSD to my system. My laptop is a 2021 I believe and it’s a Asus TUF FX506HC Appreciate any help thank you! 😊 *May I add when I goto task manager it says I have 1 of 4 for ram storage in which it’s not all for but 1 of 2 which is what dual ram storage?
@@SLAYGR0UNDS There's something wrong if it says only 24gb, it should be 32, 2x16., It's a dual ram storage as well. If you think 2TB would be good, as for mine, 1TB + 512 gb is already good!
@@hermezx Yeah for some reason the website it says it’s 32GB maximum Ram upgrade, so I made a post on Reddit and he gave me info and website to whats max compatibility for my FX506HC which is saying is capped at 64, guess I’ll try 2x16 which will be 32GB pray it works fine. My laptop does show 1 of 4 storage for my Asus gaming laptop so I’m gonna guess it is indeed a dual
I use the same unit TUF FX506HCB, after 2 years of using it, it finally showed signs of LCD problems. The LCD had some discoloration in the sides. The discoloration only shows when my screen is in black screen. And the Battery Health of my Asus Tuf F15 is 72%. I even cap my battery to 80% using MyAsus. Overall the performance is the best. But the LCD in the long-run is not good. I guess its normal for it to burn due to continuous rendering and playing heaving AAA games. I also suggest to never use Turbo Mode, it would only damage your LCD. Don't make the same mistake as I did. Right now my Asus TUF is still good. But I have to replace the LCD which costs like 15% of the original price on when I bought this. I purchased this last April 2022.
I have same laptop with rtx3060. More than a year now and still works well for productivity & gaming. My only problem is the wifi6 support. Most of the time it can't detect the 5g signal.
Hey man I want to buy this laptop I save money very hard ritz 3050 for my gaming and programming does it worth? Does it overheat ? And how is battery life ? Please help me
It is one of the best bang for your buck pc's out there, I was looking at a few others in the same range and it came out on top for me. I picked a refurbished one up at a pretty good price
my laptop is f15 too but i use it for 1 year to and and booting is like 20 seconds because theres this skip disck checking and error so theres no problem for me love your vid
same laptop, 1 year old also.. mine got a scratch on left CTRL button due to fingernail.. should have been using a separate keyboard like yours so i maintain the keys looking good. other than that, this review is accurate based on my experience 👍
I have a Asus Tuf F15 Gaming laptop which i recently purchased and it has RTX 3050ti with Intel i7 11gen processor and it works really great and yeah i also Got panicked When i heard the Noise of fans which were moving around 5600rpm which was loud but no issues and I got it under $1000
Asus is well know for heavy duty units. If you want a laptop that can go through in rigorous situation go for Asus tuf. Btw I'm using Asus tuf f15 i7 12th gen
I'm planning buy a Asus tuf15 i7-11800h RTX 3050 1tb storage variant I do gaming but not too much and I run after effects what's your thoughts on this?
@@aryang4518 Totally fine, it will now just come down to RAM. If you have a budget, probably go for 32gb RAM for faster editing/render/export and time sensitive stuff. 16gb is just fine as well!
@@hermezx how about I buy 16b variant and upgrade it later btw may I know what's your thoughts on Acer Nitro V RTX 4050 6gb vram i5-13450H with 16gb ddr5 ram my only concern is acer's thermals and longevity that's why I prefered asus
Bought Asus tuf A15 ryzen 7 with an rtx 4060 2 days ago finally replacing my alienware 15 r2 2015. Ordered a cooling fan and i will upgrade the ram to 32gb and a 2tb M.2 ssd
Is this laptop a good choice for my needs? I do graphic design, illustration, some daily use as watching videos or using word, and also gaming. Do you recommend it for do those?
bought this laptop from Amazon then it stopped working the 2nd day , system went off and never turned on again, tried the hold power button for 60 secs thing but no use😢😢
I have this pc, & same as u I mostly use it while plugged in, battery isn't that good, 0 brightness at night watching movies offline lasts about 2-3 hours only 100-0%
You can still increase it, just like mine but generally speaking, almost 80% of Windows Laptop are like that, considering we have those 48wh battery model, if you want longer usage, either settle for 90wh battery(5~6hrs) or purchase a Macbook(6hrs+++)
hey currently I am facing one problem in this laptop, by mistakenly I changed my system username (or file username) in command prompt so how can I rename this. ( I watched so many videos in RU-vid regarding this but no one videos could fix this problem) if anyone knows about it, please reply me it will be helpful to me😥
just bought one a week ago all it does is updates, not keen on it the only problem is I stupidly wrote on the manual so might not be able to send it back :(
i played pes 2021 in asusu tuf f15 2023 , drained from 89% to 15% in 1 hour 5 mins {{{ un plugged }}} laptop laid flat and wifi was on I guess... why is that battery is so low performance..also what setting gave you 4 hours 30 mins
Oh, gaming laptops aren't really supposed to be game on battery mode even though they made it possible, full performance when gaming is within plugged in mode! You can refer to my other videos to increase battery life and how to make it a bettery laptop, but not really about gaming on battery mode!

What happened with your Lenovo? I'm wondering, between tuf f15 i7 12th rtx 3050 and legion 5 2022 i5 12th rtx3050ti, which device should I buy? Legion is more expensive than tuf.
@@hoctailieu413 The motherboard fried itself after 11 months of use, and since the warranty had already expired by the time the laptop died (I was away on a trip and left the laptop stored back home) they told me it'd take 25 days to ship its costly motherboard at my own expense. After extensive research online, I found numerous similar cases to mine, and all were Lenovo laptops (especially the Legion lineup). I decided to sell it for scraps and never buy a Lenovo product ever again.
I'm new to this gaming laptop concept and couldn't decide which laptop suits me better. My requirements are I play apex legends and CS2 more. Sometimes I'll do some light Photoshop works. Also rare case I play offline games like Dishonored, Dishonored 2, Mirrors edge & Mirrors edge catalyst. I don't play most high end PC games. Would you recommend me a gaming laptop based on my need. And my budget is 60k. Thanks in advance.
This clarifies that what you really need is a Windows Laptop, there's a lot of options out there like TUF, ROG, MSI, Predator! I think you need to look at laptops that suits your taste on physical design first and narrow it down and let me know! Apex Legends and CS2 is mid end game (i play apex as well) and you don't need insane specs for it. I would suggest to place your minimum choice on getting 16GB RAM, i5 processor or Ryzen 5 and RTX Card!
Hey really nice video:D But I have a question for you as you use your laptop for this long. Do you like using a laptop or your phone? I mean which device do you prefer to use if you could do everything on both the devices and were not tied up to one or the other bcs of their capabilities.
@@hermezx have you any suggestion to keep battery health when playing games. I usually playing game using the same Asus TUF like yours but mine is core i5 12th with RTX3050
I am new to PC gaming, I've seen some good things about this laptop. As I'm new, I don't know where to start and don't want to spend a lot of money on something that's going to break. If I was to but this laptop what cooling system / stand would you recommend. Also how do I get to understand specs/RAM/performance since I am new?
I advise you to check more laptop/pc videos to find what's suitable for your need, any laptop cooler will do as long as the fan power and speed are good, alongside with your research for models, you're gonna across more knowledge and eventually get there!
That's incredibly cheap, where will you buy this? Is it from partnered shops or physical stores? i5, 16GB RAM and RTX 2060 plays around 750~850 USD as brand new!
Is it still worth to buy rtx 3050 11th gen i5 processor over 12th gen i5 processor with rtx 2050??. People with good knowledge of laptops guide me please😀😀
This is purely based on my opinion, they both offer same price as mid range laptop, but i would say ASUS TUF is more worth what you're paying for, ASUS TUF and ROG already have good reputation, based on my experience, i never regretted my ASUS TUF F15 but i wish, i had gone for 90wh battery! Right now as well, seen a few Acer Nitro users selling their laptops because of different kinds of issues.
i had been using my lenovo ideapad for 4 yrs ive optimized it a little and only the w key has fell off(due to agressive use in gaming) and it can run roblox and minecraft at 100-200 fps.
Hi, please check my Increase Battery Life video on my channel, you've got everything you need there! Straight to the point guide, it would definitely help you as your laptop is really not supposed to only have that amount of battery life!
Hey man, quick question, I just watched your 6 months review of F15 and I'm planning to buy it soon. My question is, how did you fix the wifi problem? I'm kinda concerned about that since I don't want to have another thing to spend on, other than upgrading it. Thank you for your time!
Primarily what worked for me is Windows 11 Update and permanently fixed it other than the two ways i said in this video! I don’t think you should be concerned over that because i assume (if i’m right) that you would be purchasing the 2023 version! It has newer wifi driver version and advanced wifi 6! Only the 2021 ver and almost mid 2022 stocks has the issue, no need to worry about that.
Thank you very much! I commented before watching so I didn't know you included the ways to fix it in the video. I'm planning to buy the same version of yours, since the 2023 version is kinda out of my budget atm 😅. Your review is awesome, truly concise and direct to the point! I appreciate the help, keep it up!
Mine is newer than this i have the intel i7 nividia Gforce RTX 4070 graphics card and 1TB storage paid over 1000 for it at best buy they didn't have one at the store so i had to order it from there website my DDR4 8GB my battery 4 cell 90wh
I have the same laptop. F15 TUFF GAMING I5-11400H, RTX 3050 TI, 16GB RAM AND 1T SSD. I already used it around 2 years from now so far its good. My concern is can we access the other rgb pattern for keyboard in Armory Crate except for the 4 basic RGB like strobing, breathing, static, and color cycle? I want to change it badly like the rainbow or music or maybe starry night. If have some idea please let me know.
My brother just got this laptop but whenever he downloads a game, i lose internet on my phone, & PS5, is there a way to fix this? If so, how? We have high speed internet, & have never had issues until he got this laptop.
Hey man I want to buy this laptop I saved money very hard .for my gaming and programming does it worth buying?how is battery life,? Does it over heat while gaming? Please help me
I always game on TURBO Mode while plugged in, gaming is still possible on battery but not as much as powerful as plugged in and it will drain your battery heavily!
To give you a better answer and might interest you more on other games, you can watch my ULTIMATE GAMING PERFORMANCE TEST of ASUS TUF F15! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v5QWqw4Lhbo.html
there are some bots going into comment sections of videos about this laptop and say it starts malfunctioning after a year please dont believe them they are just from other companies trying to knock Asus down
Just to check. By default, how many Gb of ram did you got it? I am planning to buy only can see an 8gb ram. I presume there is an extra slot for additional ram.
Original 16gb (8+8) and spot on upgraded to 24gb (16+8), yes dual channel supported for this gaming laptop! That will do, you can upgrade anytime in the future!
@@claudiociucur9306 yes, that alone can improve thermals especially for gaming, laptop cooler is only a must if people have budget, elevation stand will do!
hey man idk if u will reply now...but i recently bought asus tuf f15 11th gen 12700 i7 rtx 3050, and when i play valorant with plugin, my cpu temp goes 89-91 and also the laptop and charger heat up, please give me a solution to bring down temp without cooler????
The charger does really heat up, you can try some of these settings to improve temperature of your laptop -> Turn your ASUS TUF F15 into a BEAST: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Gzszo1ST_TI.html
Hello sir. Im a gamer. But its my first time to dwell on laptops. I want to know which is better? Tuf f15 or the victus one. But i dont like the build of victus
@@hermezx yeah after reviewing these two. I really like the build of tuf f15. But in my location we have a victus 15 with 16gb ram. Thats why im really undecided yet what to get. For a 50k budget. Te tuf f15 with 8gb ram or victus 15 with 16 gb ram.
@@Anonymous-mo4oi For this, it would be smart to go for Victus 15, that's it, it's given already that ASUS TUF F15 is objectively better on most parts, everyone knows that, but your situations favors the Victus and it's not bad choice as well!
@@hermezx bro do you have a messenger or discord somewhere i can show you the specs. Of what im dealing with. Haha. Still confused. ive done my research, victus 15 has many deal breakers for me.
Very good video thank you so much, But what do you think about asus tuf f15 now after 3 years because i want to buy one and i am scared of the high temperature
This is 2021 model, but i bought it last year(2022), still good and amazed with its performance. High temperature can be easily fix, what you should be considering is Battery Life, because it only offers 3hrs close to 4hrs with very strict usage. You should aim for 90wh battery or if you’re not a gamer, go for apple macbooks
@@aboudkhanji365 You can check my two guides (Increase Battery Life and Turn ASUS TUF into beast) some of tips included there are also both direct and indirect says to improve thermals!

Good option as well, was also in the same situation but unfortunately Acer Nitro has some significant problems + bad reviews and at that time, huge amount of users selling their nitros, still up to your preference!
