ASUS TUF Gaming F15 (FX507, 2023) review – higher price but better performance


    With the rise of inflation, budget gaming notebooks are no longer very affordable. However, manufacturers have done their fair share of the price increase, by making these products with higher-quality materials.

    In addition to that, NVIDIA and Intel introduced an incredibly powerful lineup of GPUs and CPUs recently, but again – they are no longer the bargain they used to be. On the bright side, even the RTX 4050 (which now finally comes with 6GB of GDDR6 VRAM) is capable of crushing every game at 1080p and max settings.

    The laptop we’re going to talk about today is the ASUS TUF Gaming F15 (FX507, 2023). Visually, it is not very different from its predecessor – the FX507. This is why its name is basically the same.

    However, there are some features that are simply amazing. Even the base display option now has full sRGB coverage (1080p, 144Hz IPS unit), while the top tier screen has a 1440p resolution, works at 165Hz, supports G-Sync, and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut (allegedly).

    Not to mention stuff like the MUX Switch. Nevertheless, we’re going to cover these details later in the review, but until we reach that point, let’s acquaint ourselves with this notebook’s design.

    Hi, i have a question for you guys. i’m in doubt between buying the Asus TUF f15 with i7-12700H and RTX 4060 or the Acer Nitro 5 An517-55 with i7-12700H and RTX 3060. I read both your review and (also if not with this configurations) i’m concerned about two things: 1-the low CPU performance of the ASUS (i dont understand if they are only for the i7-13th or also for the 12th), and how much they are lowest in comparation of the Acer CPU performance, always with i7-12700H; 2- i compare the two PC and don’t understand how much the… Tovább olvasom »

    I know this is late but how much is the wattage of the Nitro 5? remember even if its a 4060 if it has a lower wattage over the 3060, the 3060 will outperform the 4060

    Hey. I just got this laptop yesterday and I’m having issues: performance in cb23 and timespy is much worse than I see here. I get 12000 graphic score in timespy, about 1500 / 14500 for cb23 single / multi.
    Also in games it heats like to 90-95

    Hello, I have a question about the RAM.

    I have a asus TUF f15 FX507VV-ds91 with a i9 core and RTX4060 and 2x8gig 3200MHz DDR4 so-dimm

    I wanted to know if it is possible upgrade this to a DDR5 so-dimm 32g or 64g RAM. I read from the asus website and it does support DDR5 rams but only at 24g RAM. So I am a bit confused on this matter.

    Hope to get some clarification and thank you for the informative review

    Can you tell me abit more regarding the Hinges’ durability? Do you think that ASUS TUF’s “military grade” laptop hinges are better than other budget laptop such as Acer Nitro, HP Victus, and MSI GF63? I’m really curious about how they compare. Thank you very much in advance!
