Between the two, the ASUS ROG Strix G16 is definitely the better choice overall.

У мене Asus ROG strix G16 4070/i5-13450hx І оцей проц дуже душить мою 4070. 5050 слабша, тож повинна бути сбалансована збірка. Ну і подивсь ноут БЕЗ вбудованої вінди - зекономиш 4-5к.

Yup! Had a ROG strix G16 with 4070. Debated if I wanted to upgrade it or go with an ally X. Due to 1080p, lower fps, and lower graphics settings I went with a ROG strix G18 with 5080. It looks amazing on the bigger screen and is a beast but I liked the size of the G16 more I think. Both gaming lapto

I have an Asus RoG Strix G16 laptop with 32GB and an RTX 5070 GPU with 8 GB of VRAM. It is more than adequate and will be more portable than a desktop, if that is a consideration.

I recently got an Asus ROG Strix G16 and was shocked when I launched The Sims 3. I remembered you have to go into the settings to maximize graphics and shadows and reflections and shit so I did that.

the heating and fan issue with the Yoga 7i is pretty common — it's more of an everyday productivity laptop than something built for engineering workloads, so it struggles when you push it since you said no refurbished and budget is under $800, the Acer Nitro V 16 is honestly the one i'd look at in t

2k got me am Asus rog strix g16 with an 8940hx, 5070ti 12gb, 1tb HD and 32gb ddr5. Another 500 got me 96gb ddr6 (2x 48) and i will be honest... it handles dense models up to qwen3.5 27b at usable but slow speeds. Moe it can handle up to a 120b in q4. But again not fast. Qwen 3 coder next at 80b MoE
