Great laptop. Can run Fortnite on epic at 1440p with 130-160fps. Design is just really thick and ports are lacking. The wireless is a mediatek and not intel so speeds and reliability are not good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Advanced setup required. The system comes with an igpu and a dedicated graphics card. To get the most out of your system you need to set up the circumstances where you would like the powerful dedicated Nvidia card to be utilized over the iGPU. Your settings need to be reviewed after each update as they occasionally reset to default.
Updating should include some sort of instruction especially for BIOS updates. Can get a little confusing with these odd file formats.

Outstanding performance and quality. Exactly what I was hoping for. Also much thinner and lighter than my previous high-end gaming laptop. No complaints.

Fast machine, seriously fast, beautiful screen but not very bright 300 lumens not enough, should have given it 500.
Cursor freezes every time you right click or a system event happens for 1-2 seconds.
Bluetooth can cause issues, I updated it to latest from Asia’s website because it kept crashing completely after sleeping and needed to be restarted. After updating the driver from Asus, it gave me blue screen of death and wouldn’t boot into windows, just blue screen boot loop and I had to run system recovery to fix it. Found a driver that would work.
Fans are nice and quiet even running an intense game on turbo.

Its an excellent performing computer and I couldn't ask for anything more! I really enjoy the keyboard keys and did not have any prior experience with this type. I like having a 10 keypad and although this is a little crowded by other keys with no Enter key on the far right, it is still enjoyable. To use the Home, Page Up/Down, and End buttons, you have to press FN, then CTRL before pressing those keys, and that took me a sec to figure out. The only downside that I have had is that the screen timeout is buggy (I can't change its settings on how long before it times out) and I have been troubleshooting it for a bit even with some bios updates. I personally don't see any need for the ROG key that plugs in to the side, but everything else I am happy with.
