ASUS TUF Gaming F15 FX507 review – there are too many versions
Temperatures and comfort, Battery Life
Max CPU load
In this test we use 100% on the CPU cores, monitoring their frequencies and chip temperature. The first column shows a computer’s reaction to a short load (2-10 seconds), the second column simulates a serious task (between 15 and 30 seconds), and the third column is a good indicator of how good the laptop is for long loads such as video rendering.

Weirdly, the TUF Gaming F15 FX507 shows pretty poor performance in longer runs. We used all available performance enhancers from the Armoury Crate, but nothing really worked out. The CPU still wanted to fall down to 2.30 GHz on the P-cores after no more than 1 minute of constant stress. This might really be a driver issue and could be fixed in the future.

Interestingly, the cooling solution can’t really handle the RTX 3050 and runs it at high temperatures. While it still gives you high clocks, the fan noise is a bit loud. In contrast to the RTX 3060 and RTX 3070 models, this one lacks a dedicated heat pipe and a heat sink, which apparently proves crucial.
Gaming comfort
As we already mentioned, the fan noise is a bit high, but the keyboard remains pretty cool even in long gaming sessions.
Battery
Now, we conduct the battery tests with the Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with. This device’s 56Wh battery pack lasts for 7 hours and 48 minutes of Web browsing, or 5 hours and 50 minutes of video playback.
Brightness: 180 nits; Display Mode: SDR
Time to Full Discharge: Higher is Better
In order to simulate real-life conditions, we used our own script for automatic web browsing through over 70 websites.

Why in the ‘CPU variants’ it shows a score of 13770 for the Intel Core i7-12700H while in the Cinebench R23 CPU test it shows a score of 15062 for the same test.
Is that a mistake in your article?
Thank you.
