Thanks so much for the review, there are almost no that review this particular model! I decided I'll buy this laptop like 5 months ago but it's only available now where I live. Looking forward for it to arrive. I've been stuck with i7 4500U for six years and oh man how I hate that thing. It runs Windows 10 just barely and those lags are just terrible. Never again will I go with Intel. Also a tip for you, put your camera higher so people don't think you're talking down to them :D.
Thank You, Been Using Same blue laptop since October 2020 and this machine has some serious power. Love the Video, and this Machine is beast!! Thank You, For helping me Making my decision on purchasing this gaming Laptop. Anything Asus, I love, its really hard to choose, which one you want to go with....lol
@@WhatNowTech yes while I agree that it definitely should be a usb 3 port in 2020, no mouse uses anything more than usb 2.0, that's why I don't think anyone who would use a mouse with this would mind Anyway, great video 👌
@@WhatNowTech I have a logitech g13 gaming pad that refuses to work on USB3. There are just some devices that can't do it. Weird to say, but it's nice to see USB2 for devices that are legacy bound.
You hit the nail on the head.... Why have a 144hz screen when most games are not going to hit it? Having a more color accurate display could make this a video editors dream!
I ordered one, should be here day after tomorrow. Can't wait. I saw on another review that the WIFI 5 chip is actually replaceable with a WIFI 6 chip. I think the cache is actually 12 MB, not 11 as stated.
liked and subbed just for the fact that your testing is AMAZING. The fact that this laptop is on par with a 3800x is AMAZING as a video editor. This was the video I was looking for to see if this was my mobile editing solution.
Thanks for this comprehensive test. What’s your alternative laptops suggestions for video editing? This will be my main computer, I am selling my Ruben 5 desktop. I edit with davinci resolve with Blackmagic raw footage.
I am glad you liked it! The thing is this computer is currently cheaper than 4800H laptops with RTX 2060, so I will recommend this over other 4800H-2060 computers. Davinci takes advantage of powerful GPUs, so I wouldn't go below a 2060. If price isn't an issue I recommend Eluktronics!
WhatNow? Well here in South Africa they recommended an MSI Workstation with a Quadro T2000 GPU. I don’t know why tech heads always associate video editing with 3D rendering! 🤣 but yes price is an issue. And I am keeping my monitor so I will use that to do my colour grading. It would be nice to have a nice monitor on the laptop as well but it seems with windows you need to choose: power vs hardware.
Bob Of All Trades posted a fix for the high temp of cpu under stress tests/gaming by limiting the TDP to 25W, you get almost upto a 20 degree decrease with relatively good performance
Hi! Personally I am against lowering the TDP or disabling SMT in a video, because those are all fixes to a problem that I feel like I need to show. That being said, while it's a good tip, I can't help but wonder if you'd just be better off getting a 4800H instead of a 4900H.
@@WhatNowTech I don't know if the temps are same for 4800H and 4900H under stress, guessing it cant differ that much. One thing to note is theres a lower TDP (35W) variant 4900HS which hits 100C on the G14 gaming right out of the box
I can confirm this asus tuf a15 ryzen 9 is good for 3d rendering (3ds Max 2018_ heavy interior rendering). I already test it.i am happy.it save my time.i can render within 1 hour for the job that suppose to render within 12 hour. I throw out my MShit 2018 Raider....thank you from Malaysia.

Great video my good man.. Trying to decide between this for $1499 or a Nitro 5 with a 10750H and 2060 but only 8GB of ram but its only $1199 (all costs in Canadian dollars) the fact you can connect a rift s to this laptop but you can't with the Nitro 5 is a big deal though.. but is it worth the extra $340 after tax?? damn.. why can't these decisions ever be easy
thanks for this! cannot find many head to head reviews of 4900h vs 4800h. Ok so i think this is way overpriced for a couple of reasons. 1) lenovo and other
It depends on the use case. Also if your computer is downloading/installing updates in the background that has a significant effect on the battery life too.
Can you test this lap and lenovo legion 5pi, I want to know which one is better for its price range and yeesh I loved your video you earned my subscription❣️
I am currently working on a video about the Legion 5i with an i5-10300H and a GTX1650. I am not sure what exactly is different between the 5i and the 5pi.
@@WhatNowTech well until my notice the key differences are the discrete graphics available we get upto rtx 2060 in 5pi and upto 1660ti in 5i, secondly we got a i7-10750H and i7-10875H variants in 5pi so the 875H is quite a big boost compared to the 750H available in 5i, the cooling is also quite noicc in 5pi with coldfront 2.0 but I'm not sure whether it would suffice and that was the major factor I wished to observe in many reviews of the 5pi.....those reviews didn't quite quench my anxiety to buy it or not after all it's like 1.3L at my home town (I'm an Indian)...I'll be waiting for your review of you ever do one 🌞 thanks for looking into my comment tho mate. I wish prosperity and fame for your channel mate..
I recently got this Asus TUF laptop with the Ryzen 9 4900H and the Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 GA502IV-XS76. I did some basic benchmarking on both laptops and was finding that the G15 with an AMD Ryzen 7 4800HS/RTX 2060 MaxQ was fairing better than the Asus TUF with better CPU and GPU. Can you comment on this? Thanks!
BCODs all the time when NOT playing games - very strange... I think it is due to AMD graphics - in this years and half i have done all possible to solve the problem, without success. I'm fed up and i just bought Lenovo Legion Intel 12 gen - i hope for the better.
1660 and 2060 not huge difference except for ray tracing for games, i would go with the vega 8 integrated graphics in the 4900h - only asus has it; vs 7 in 4800h, ... also 2060 needs more power i think than 1660ti. i don't like the build quality so much, prefer 4800h/2060 lenovo legion 5 with 144hz screen 5 ms response time
Should i stick to asus ryzen 7 1650ti or buy this one (ryzen 9) pls help me .. i am more into gaming and programming will it'll be a good choice for me??
I have bought asus tuf ryzen 9 4900h with rtx 2060 gpu for 1599$.There is a 100 dollar discount in bestbuy till Aug 14.i have played Assasins Creed Odyssey in this laptop. It works butter smooth at ultra high settings but the gpu temperature and cpu temp clocks around 88 degrees. I am little concerned about gaming on this laptop. Will it affect the components in the long run?
I picked up the same on as you. Warzone I hit 86 oC. Its never gone higher but it runs all games fine at high fps on high settings. I think its a great laptop. Paid £1300.
That's a great price, I can buy it only for $1999 but comparable models are expensive, too. We have higher taxes ehere I live -_-. Yeah and the 'free' healthcare is sh*t.
I picked it up for 1299 Euros in Europe. Don't worry about the thermals. even 95dgc is no problem, although when I reach this constantly during gaming, I am repasting. Just testing now the grizzly carbonaut, if it is with this just a few degees warmer, but no more repasting, then I stick to this
I’m considering of buying this laptop but the only concern I have is that this doesn’t have a HDD but is that a big problem or is it fine to play game with it. I’m planning to play fortnite, rainbow six siege and valorant and some more games but is it fine without HDD or should I buy something else
Mine arrived today. Ryzen 9 with an RTX 2060. The screen is plenty bright enough for me. Colour palette, meh, but if that's really important to you, use the external monitor of your choice. I'm still getting used to the keyboard, but I like it. The single USB 2.0 port on the right side of the chassis is best used for a mouse, which most people using this laptop will end up using. The track pad is decent, but I like my mouse. I didn't want to break the bank to get a laptop I could do pretty much anything with. This laptop has its compromises, but considering the horsepower you get, and the ability to upgrade the memory and the storage when you need to, you really can't beat this machine for value. Can it run hot and have the fans spin up, yes, but note it's a GAMING laptop, not an Ultrabook. Is it mostly plastic, yes. So what? Go pay a lot extra, and get something with a metal body and cooler thermals, with this kind of horsepower, if you can find it.
@@akkauntmashrab7389 Still great. I have noticed boot times seem a bit longer, but I have yet to quantify it. Performance wise, I don't see any change. It doesn't matter what I throw at it. Remember I'm gaming in 1080P, but the performance is great. At some point I'd like to look into a 3070 level GPU and a 5900 H or HX processor, but, for now, I'm happy with this machine.
Are you able to configure the keyboard light to a white or ambient colour? I need a new laptop for school and I want a gaming laptop but I feel like the led lights on the keyboard would drive me crazy if I’m studying
I guest you should check the tdp. Intel sonewhat draw alot to compete with ryzen, for exanple while ryzen uses 35w, intel uses 90w to be competitive with Ryzen one.
Because the new Ryzen 4000 series mobile chips are so cheap that is doesn't make sense to put a lower grade CPU, the price difference would be minimal, which would cause the lower specs notebook to be unsalable. In Europe, the ASUS TUF A15 FX506IU-AL052T, 15.6 (Ryzen 9 4900H) sells for 1300 euros while the ASUS ROG G15 (Ryzen 9 4900HS) goes for 1600 euros.
Caio R i would agree with your comment if it weren’t for Nvidia just launching the 3000 GPUs for half the price of a 2080TI and x2 the performance, it seems at least one company WHO DOESNT HAVE A REL COMPETITOR has made the right move
I just bought this two weeks ago. It's a beast. Probably one of the most hard-core laptops are going to find on the market. I paid $1600 canadian@bestbuy.ca. I added a 2 TB Intel M.2 SSD. This thing flies. I'm a content creator and use a lot of heavy processing apps and this thing does not get bogged down. I don't know why it is not offered in the United States but this laptop is the best of the H models. The fastest laptop on the market. So for $2000 Canadian total with the added M.2 drive and tax included it's amazing.
What're your thoughts now, three months later? I'm in Canada as well, and I'm in the market for a laptop that's stellar for music production & video editing. Macbook busted again and I decided I won't spend $2,000+ every 3 years on a laptop.
@@alexp7076 incredible. I added another 16 gigs of RAM. I also use it for music production and video production. I definitely would recommend it. It doesn't crash on me or any stuttering. I highly recommend you put in another M.2. I still have a spare 2 1/2 inch spot available. So I could even add another SSD. So really I think you'll be happy with it if you decide to buy one.
@@carcrashcams7577 Thank you for the reply. So you'd definitely suggest this over the HP Envy? The one I was looking at was an i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB HD with an NVIDIA GeForce GTA 1650 Ti. I can't spending more than $1600~ which is why I was leaning towards the ASUS TUF. Also was wondering, does the TUF overheat by any chance? Thank you once again
Unless you need a real to life color experience, you are good to go. Perfectly normal for regular usage. Media consumption might look a little blown out but you could always go for an external monitor!
yeah, every review I have read said that it's not a photo / video editors dream on the screen.... but even if you're super into color like I am.... an external monitor is going to happen at the color correcting phase.
So pretty much a useless laptop since the performance is there only for a few minutes and throttling begins. Can't believe it's a 2020 laptop. If that's the problem with Ryzen 9 overall, not only this badly designed laptop then it's over for AMD in mobile market for now. Would be disappointing, Intel barely upgrades their mobile CPUs performance simply because they don't have to, there is no alternative at all. Other laptops, Intel-based can work for hours without throttling or barely visible one. No one will care about paying extra money for that. No one will also care about some benchmarks +5-10% for Ryzen if in games the difference is only mathematical and what for is a gaming laptop if not for games, no one will buy it for rendering or any pro applications, it'd burst into flames after minutes of full load... Imho it's a total mistake. Let's wait for what other companies will do with this CPU because this isn't even funny...

How to turn off apu in laptop
is this upgradable to 32g of ram?
Yes! You can get 2 16GB sticks!
Hey!! Can u compare it with Zephyrus g14 ryzen 9 with rtx 2060maxq
If I can get my hands on one, sure!
wait it has a single channel ram ??!!
Yup. Surprised me too.
how much srgb have this screen and mhz? thanks you
45
Mine arrived today. Ryzen 9 with an RTX 2060.
The screen is plenty bright enough for me.
Colour palette, meh, but if that's really important to you, use the external monitor of your choice.
I'm still getting used to the keyboard, but I like it.
The single USB 2.0 port on the right side of the chassis is best used for a mouse, which most people using this laptop will end up using.
The track pad is decent, but I like my mouse.
I didn't want to break the bank to get a laptop I could do pretty much anything with.
This laptop has its compromises, but considering the horsepower you get, and the ability to upgrade the memory and the storage when
you need to, you really can't beat this machine for value.
Can it run hot and have the fans spin up, yes, but note it's a GAMING laptop, not an Ultrabook.
Is it mostly plastic, yes.
So what?
Go pay a lot extra, and get something with a metal body and cooler thermals, with this kind of horsepower, if you can find it.
Glad you like it! Enjoy! :)
PS: The cache is indeed 12MB and not 11, sorry about that!
How is the performance of your laptop after a long time use?
@@akkauntmashrab7389 Still great. I have noticed boot times seem a bit longer, but I have yet to quantify it. Performance wise, I don't see any change. It doesn't matter what I throw at it. Remember I'm gaming in 1080P, but the performance is great. At some point I'd like to look into a 3070 level GPU and a 5900 H or HX processor, but, for now, I'm happy with this machine.
@@jbountalas thank you so much for your reply and comments. Really appreciate it!
Thanks 👏👏👏
3:21 Thunderbolt 3 is intel's technology, you won't be seeing it on any AMD laptop
Correct, but there are AMD motherboards with Thunderbolt 3. I feel like it has more to do with laptop manufacturers.
Are you able to configure the keyboard light to a white or ambient colour? I need a new laptop for school and I want a gaming laptop but I feel like the led lights on the keyboard would drive me crazy if I’m studying
You can configure the colour as you like, or turn them off completely!
I guest you should check the tdp. Intel sonewhat draw alot to compete with ryzen, for exanple while ryzen uses 35w, intel uses 90w to be competitive with Ryzen one.
Abd also tdp of gpu, 2060max q, 2060 90w and 2060 115w are dinftent in term of performance, k
I still don’t understand why companies keep putting the best laptop processors on their cheapest model 😑
It’s just baffling 😱
Because the new Ryzen 4000 series mobile chips are so cheap that is doesn't make sense to put a lower grade CPU, the price difference would be minimal, which would cause the lower specs notebook to be unsalable. In Europe, the ASUS TUF A15 FX506IU-AL052T, 15.6 (Ryzen 9 4900H) sells for 1300 euros while the ASUS ROG G15 (Ryzen 9 4900HS) goes for 1600 euros.
Caio R i would agree with your comment if it weren’t for Nvidia just launching the 3000 GPUs for half the price of a 2080TI and x2 the performance, it seems at least one company WHO DOESNT HAVE A REL COMPETITOR has made the right move
Keep it up
I just bought this two weeks ago. It's a beast. Probably one of the most hard-core laptops are going to find on the market. I paid $1600 canadian@bestbuy.ca. I added a 2 TB Intel M.2 SSD. This thing flies. I'm a content creator and use a lot of heavy processing apps and this thing does not get bogged down. I don't know why it is not offered in the United States but this laptop is the best of the H models. The fastest laptop on the market. So for $2000 Canadian total with the added M.2 drive and tax included it's amazing.
Is heating cause problems while rendering oe playing? Actually, I bought it, but did not use for now. I have some concerns.
@@TheHyperPhysicist No problems with heat. Mine sits on a cooling pad.
What're your thoughts now, three months later? I'm in Canada as well, and I'm in the market for a laptop that's stellar for music production & video editing. Macbook busted again and I decided I won't spend $2,000+ every 3 years on a laptop.
@@alexp7076 incredible. I added another 16 gigs of RAM. I also use it for music production and video production. I definitely would recommend it. It doesn't crash on me or any stuttering. I highly recommend you put in another M.2. I still have a spare 2 1/2 inch spot available. So I could even add another SSD. So really I think you'll be happy with it if you decide to buy one.
@@carcrashcams7577 Thank you for the reply. So you'd definitely suggest this over the HP Envy? The one I was looking at was an i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB HD with an NVIDIA GeForce GTA 1650 Ti. I can't spending more than $1600~ which is why I was leaning towards the ASUS TUF. Also was wondering, does the TUF overheat by any chance? Thank you once again
Laptop is overpriced but good video. I’ll subscribe
Fadel Burnae zephyrus g14 is 1449 at bestbuy. The Asus tuf with the Ryzen 9 coast 1700
Fadel Burnae Google chrome?
It costs around 1400 for 2060 ryxen 9 in India
Beautiful video, What's the price? Same configuration laptop I bought. can check my unboxing video also. thank you
How can I connect my 144hz monitor to this since it only HDMI no DP any link to the adaptor I need. Thnx
You need an usb type c to displayport adapter. Then you can connect an dp monitor.
I'm planning to buy a cheaper Ryzen 9 4900H with GTX 1660 Ti and 16 RAM. Any tips?
Where exactly you are going to buy? On Amazon and Alibaba I could not find that configuration
Amd systems cannot get thunderbolt. Only intel
geni.us/sULDy
This is an AMD AM4 Motherboard with a Thunderbolt 3 port. I think it has something to do with laptop manufacturers.
how about the screen? is it still 62% sRGB trash?
Unless you need a real to life color experience, you are good to go. Perfectly normal for regular usage. Media consumption might look a little blown out but you could always go for an external monitor!
yeah, every review I have read said that it's not a photo / video editors dream on the screen.... but even if you're super into color like I am.... an external monitor is going to happen at the color correcting phase.
plz tell me you have a good job
So pretty much a useless laptop since the performance is there only for a few minutes and throttling begins. Can't believe it's a 2020 laptop. If that's the problem with Ryzen 9 overall, not only this badly designed laptop then it's over for AMD in mobile market for now. Would be disappointing, Intel barely upgrades their mobile CPUs performance simply because they don't have to, there is no alternative at all. Other laptops, Intel-based can work for hours without throttling or barely visible one. No one will care about paying extra money for that. No one will also care about some benchmarks +5-10% for Ryzen if in games the difference is only mathematical and what for is a gaming laptop if not for games, no one will buy it for rendering or any pro applications, it'd burst into flames after minutes of full load... Imho it's a total mistake. Let's wait for what other companies will do with this CPU because this isn't even funny...
Bad review,g15 has rtx2070 too
wrong 8 mb cache cpu !!!
It has 8 Megabytes of L3 Cache. Total L2+L3 cache is 12 Megabytes.
