Get the ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition for $1250 (was $1650)
This model also comes with a 512GB NVMe SSD for storage, 16GB of DDR4 RAM and a truly impressive screen: a 15.6-in 1080p 300Hz display, rated with a 3ms pixel response time and FreeSync support. Together with the CPU and GPU, you’ll have an incredibly potent machine for playing games or crunching through content creation tasks. Reviews of the Asus ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition are uniformly positive, with coverage mentioning the excellent gaming performance, strong battery life (8 hours when not gaming) and the gamer-y but not too gamer-y design. The high refresh rate display also got special plaudits, thanks to the smoothness it provides in both desktop computing and in esports titles where you can reach this high of a refresh rate. The display can also automatically switch to 60Hz to save battery, e.g. if you’re writing a blog post or something, which is a nice touch.
