How did you manage to buy this many comments 😭

[@neiiiiiiyyyy]

i think we are the only real people here

[@RONTEK]

Wow. Have you considered the possibility that these comments might be real. I'm barely able to afford all the gadgets I buy for reviews. I don't have money to spend on marketing my videos or doing unethical things like buying comments. But I guess you won't believe me. Still worth a try. Hope you enjoyed the actual review video.

Bro, you included an alternative section near the end, well done. Keep it up!! Btw I was comparing this laptop with predator helios 300(i7 11gen) and legion 5(R7 5800H) both @99990. Any views from you on this?

[@RONTEK]

Do those laptops also have RTX 3060 or do they have RTX 3050/3050 TI?

[@SidharthGat]

@@RONTEK 3050 in legion and 3050ti in helios

[@RONTEK]

So, basically depending on your usage, either of these laptops will be better for you. Rtx 3060 is more powerful compared to 3050 ti... About 10-15% So, if gaming, 3d modeling, VFX, interior designing etc is your usage, go for rtx 3060. For apps that are more single core optimised, all 3 laptops will be more or less on par... With a slight edge to the Intel siblings. For apps optimised for multi core usage, 11800h and 5800h will be slightly better than 11400h. So, get the laptop that best suits your requirements.

[@SidharthGat]

@@RONTEK ok I ordered tuf itself, btw I never understood what the SKUs in the naming have to tell us about the CPU: like the '800' in 11800h and 5800h.

[@SidharthGat]

@@RONTEK also I heard some people complaining about low screen response time of tuf f15. Can you calibrate it for me, like how noticeable or not noticeable will it be?

This is so clear and concise. Would be great to know MUX switch availability on this model. Im gonna snag the 3060 myself soon.

[@mohammadsaadat2133]

I've bought this model a week ago. but when I'm gaming in performance or turbo mode (plugged in) my battery also drains at 10% each hour. I mean, the maximum power demand of GPU and CPU together isn't more than 150w. I can't see why a 200w adapter can't handle heavy game and uses battery. Is it possible that there's something wrong with my adapter or system?

[@RONTEK]

Thank you. As far as I know, the 17" model only comes with RTX 3050 ti which is much weaker than RTX 3060 of the 15" model. If you can get the 17 inch model with RTX 3060 and you need a bigger screen, you should get the 17 inch model.

You'll need atleast 16gb RAM for modern games. Other than that, it's a decent configuration for playing pretty much all the modern games at medium graphics.

MUCH NEEDED REVIEW CONSIDERING IF I USE THIS LAPTOP FOR ALMOST 5 YEARS IN FUTURE WILL IT BE A BEST BUY OR SHOULD I STICK TO R7 5800H RTX 3060 ?

[@RONTEK]

Both Intel and AMD options are great. Intel is a bit more future proof with PCIe 4 and Thunderbolt 4. But the decision should mainly depend on your usage. Generally, for gaming and Adobe apps, Intel has an edge. Whereas for productivity and other tasks optimised for more cores, AMD will perform better. You will be happy with either of them.

[@sehnsuchtsama4041]

@@RONTEK Thanks bhaiya. Now I have a clear picture... BTW your editing skills are very impressive... Just a suggestion: Please reveal all the graphics settings in Games Section, it would be awesome if your do so....

[@RONTEK]

Thanks for the feedback. I've tested all games except for Battlefield 5 on ultra preset. Battlefield 5 was running on high preset. Where dlss was available, it was set to balanced. Still, next time when I make a laptop review, I'll definitely try to show the detailed graphics settings.

[@RONTEK]

The difference between i5 and i7 isn't more than 20% in multi-core workload. However, the difference between 3050 and 3060 is more than 50%. So, I would suggest going for 3060 any day.

[@vishalsrikanth]

Damn I was gonna get this laptop but now it's out of stock. Any idea when it would be back on stock again?

Few days back, there was an option to pre order it. There it was written that next stock will arrive on 14th October.

[@TheNiteviper]

Hi, I’d be grateful if you can solve an issue for me, more like a doubt. So most of the times the temperature of my graphics card is maxed out at 86 or 87 percent. In your video, I never saw the temperature rising above 80. Also, the reason I am worried about this is, I use the nivida performance overlay to check the numbers, and the fan speed of my gpu always shows a zero, doesn’t move a bit, even at high temperatures. I assumed maybe the gpu doesn’t have a dedicated cooling fan at all, can you confirm this?

[@RONTEK]

There are 2 fans in this laptop. 1 for CPU and 1 for GPU. To see the real time Fan RPM, you can simply open the ARMOURY CRATE App pre-installed on this laptop. To put it through a stress test, simply install the Blender Benchmark and run it in CUDA or OPTIX mode on top of Armoury Crate app. You'll get to monitor the real time change in fan speed and temps. In my test, the fans go as high as 5000+ RPM. Regarding high temps, you can elevate the laptop slightly to allow better air intake from the bottom. That should instantly reduce the temps by 3-5°C. Other than that, ambient temperature also has an impact on system temps. I conducted all these tests with a room temperature of 25°C.

[@TheNiteviper]

@@RONTEK Thanks, I was looking for the fan speed in the Nvidia experience rather than Armoury Crate, your reply solved the issue, much thanks!

[@ahmadalharazneh1906]

Please any one who try it , give me an advice cause i want to buy it . What about the temperature with games and programs ? And is it better or the legion 5 ryzen 5 4600h gtx 1660ti ?

[@RONTEK]

I've shown the temps while gaming in the performance section of the video. Still, at max load, the CPU temps hover around 85°C and GPU around 75°C. This laptop is way more powerful compared to 4600H and 1660ti. You can expect around 50% higher performance with the RTX 3060 and about 25% higher performance with 11400H

Is the 16 GB RAM achieved by 2 sticks of 8 GB each or 1 stick of 16 GB? (From 7:14, it looks like 1x16GB, but I need to be sure about it.)

It's 2 sticks of 8gb each. So, incase you need to upgrade to 32gb, you'll have to replace both.

[@SrMway]

Can you please tell me if this laptop can connect to an external monitor for gaming? The hdmi port needs to be connected directly to graphics card inorder for this to happen

[@RONTEK]

Yes, you can do so. With this laptop there are 2 display outs. The standard HDMI 2.0b is not connected directly to the GPU But the Thunderbolt 4.0 (with Display Port 1.4) is connected to the GPU. So, you can use a Type C to HDMI cable or use a dongle to connect it to an external display and get the best performance.

[@RONTEK]

I think if you want a laptop with best gaming performance, Helios 300 will be slightly better as its RTX 3060 has a TGP of 105W compared to 95W of TUF F15. The Helios 300 also has a few other advantages in the form of multi zone RGB, faster ssd, USB PD (100W) etc. TUF F15 only has an advantage in terms of battery size (90Wh compared to 59Wh of Acer), higher refresh rate and a more neutral design (compared to a gamer design of Helios 300).

[@anacardosentimental]

Im looking for a good monitor to pair with this laptop, but i do not know anything about monitors at all. Any recommendations? Thank u all :)

[@RONTEK]

If you want a monitor strictly for gaming, you can consider a TN panel. But TN panels have poor color reproduction but high refresh rate and minimum ghosting. If you want one for media consumption or creation, VA or IPS panel is the way to go. VA panels have higher contrast ratio making the blacks look really black while they look like dark grey on IPS panels. But IPS panels have better viewing angles. Also, try to get a G-Sync compatible monitor to enjoy VRR (variable refresh rate) for gaming. That will remove all the screen tearing and let you play games without enabling v-sync in game.
