ASUS ROG Strix G513RW 15.6" Full HD 300Hz Gaming Laptop (AMD Ryzen 7-6800HS, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070Ti, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Windows 11)

Product Information

With new tools, sounds and apps that all come together to bring a new refreshing Windows experience.

Spec-wise, the 2022 ASUS ROG Strix G15 series is built on the latest AMD and Nvidia hardware available to date. On the Silent profile, at lower power settings and noise levels, the Ryzen 9 outscores the Intel i9 in our tests, and the superior efficiency allows for better performance on battery and longer runtimes with everyday chores. On Performance, the fans spin much quieter at around 40 dB, and the framerates only take a ~10% hit compared to the Turbo mode. The Ryzen 9 processor stabilizes at ~90W of sustained power on the Turbo setting, which translates in frequencies of 4.Windows 11 is not just an operating system; it's a gateway to a modern and immersive gaming experience. More space means greater precision along with more comfortable hand movements and gestures while you’re navigating.

They are also fully customizable, and can be programmed to launch apps, set as a function key, or used as a macro. I also totally understand it and that's one of the main reasons I'm still using a desktop PC as my main computer. We separate the 4 constituent parts (polystyrene, plastic, wood and cardboard) at the depots then bale and compact the materials at our hub. stress runs the same test for 20 times in a loop and looks for performance variation and degradation over time, and this unit passed it just fine, which means there’s no performance throttling with longer-duration sustained loads.

Swift 1TB SSD Storage: The 1TB SSD not only provides ample space for your expansive game library but also ensures rapid data access and swift system responsiveness. With the current settings, the AMD CPU runs at about 80-90 degrees Celsius on Turbo, while the GPU runs in the low to mid-80s. Then, the ROG plastic cap to the left-back side of the laptop is no longer user replaceable on this series, and instead has been replaced with a fixed piece that looks rather interesting, with the speckled dotted design.

You’ll want to opt for FHD Ultra or QHD Medium settings in this case, though, as you’re not going to get playable framerates at QHD Ultra with modern titles.

Much like the Scar series, the cooling module is still somewhat choked with this Strix G15 design by the slim rubber feet that Asus implement on the underside of this series. Games are still going to run fine on this profile, but you’ll have to accept CPU temperatures in the 90s, GPU temperatures in the 85-87 C and GPU power throttling in most titles, as well as somewhat higher surface temperatures than on the Turbo mode. We’re looking at temperatures in the low to mid-80s for both, which are within expected limits for a performance laptop.

Per-key RGB lighting lets you choose from millions of colors on every key for endless customization. At the same time, at full-power, the AMD model runs at higher internal temperatures, due to how the system balanced the power between the CPU and GPU, and as a result of the slightly lower-grade thermal compound used on this unit in comparison to the Scars. Turbo is only available with the laptop plugged into the wall and are meant for gaming and other demanding loads. Our tech in Excellent, Very Good, and Good condition has been checked and tested by our team of expert engineers.They’re also a slightly trimmed variation of the top-tier Strix Scar 15/ Scar 17 series, with some changes in aesthetics, IO, and configuration options, but similar in overall format, functionality, and capabilities. I’m especially interested in the budget-tier RTX 3060 model, the ROG Strix G15 G513RM, but the top-tier Strix G15 G513RS variant with the RTX 3080 graphics should also be an interesting analysis, as the most powerful AMD-based ROG laptop of this generation. I couldn’t find this reviewed configuration in the US, with the Ryzen 9 processor and RTX 3070Ti graphics, but it is available here in Europe for around 2300-2400 EUR. Manual – like Turbo, but with the ability to custom tweak the CPU’s PL1/PL2 power levels and GPU’s power/clocks, plus create custom fan profiles based on temperature limits. All in all, this AMD-based 2022 Asus ROG Strix G15 series is a very capable performer and a 5-25% step-up from the 2021 implementations, thanks to the updated hardware, the bump in power and the addition of the MUX.
