日本ASUS TUF Gaming A17 FA707 – Top 5 Pros and Cons
Gaming laptops will get better and better, as hardware evolves and you can fit powerful components into smaller and smaller chassis. However, the TUF Gaming A17 FA707 doesn’t care about portability, as it strives to deliver the best possible gaming performance while keeping an entry-level or a mid-range budget.
Today’s device comes with Ryzen 6000H-series processors and RTX Ampere graphics, including a 140W RTX 3070, which will satisfy most if not all of your gaming needs.
Today we are presenting you with LaptopMedia’s top 5 picks about the ASUS TUF Gaming A17 FA707.
ASUS TUF Gaming A17 FA707: Full Specs / In-depth Review
4 reasons to BUY the ASUS TUF Gaming A17 FA707
1. Design and build quality
The ASUS TUF devices have evolved drastically since their inception, becoming better looking and fleshing out the TUF brand as a whole. Slowly but surely we see more and more metal make its way into the design of the machine, with the whole lid being crafted out of the material. All TUF devices have also passed the MIL-STD-810H certification tests, which test the devices in every meaningful way to determine durability. The lid is very tough, resisting every attempt to flex it. The base is in a similar state, despite the inherent weakness that larger notebooks bear, due to their sheer size. In terms of weight and height, this is one of the lighter 17.3-inch gaming devices, sporting a weight of only 2.60 kg and having a profile of 25.4 mm.
2. Upgradeability
Gaming laptops should put a lot of focus on upgradeability, as game sizes and RAM requirements continue to increase. ASUS thankfully listens, offering two SODIMM RAM slots that can hold up to 64GB of DDR5 memory running in dual-channel mode. Storage-wise, there are two M.2 PCIe x4 slots for expansion, both of which support Gen 4 drives.
Here is our detailed teardown video, which shows how to access both the RAM and SSD slots.
3. Display quality
There is a single display offering, which is amazing, purely for gaming. The 17.3-inch screen uses an IPS panel and has an FHD resolution. The display comes with comfortable viewing angles, so you can enjoy movies and games on a bigger screen.
The max brightness of 274 nits in the middle of the screen and 267 nits as an average for the whole area might seem low, but you will be fine if you’re gaming at home or in an enclosed space. The contrast ratio is high enough at 1390:1. There’s also 0 PWM usage across all brightness levels, along with G-Sync and Adaptive-Sync support.
The coverage and accuracy aren’t suitable for professional work, as the display covers only 53% of the sRGB color gamut.
The accuracy doesn’t improve a lot, even with our Design and Gaming profile, which manages to bring the dE value only slightly: from 4.1 to 3.8. Here are the results of our test with the factory settings (left) and with our profile applied (right).

Kontorsarbete
Office Work bör främst användas av användare som tillbringar den mesta tiden med att titta på textstycken, tabeller eller bara surfa. Den här profilen syftar till att ge bättre tydlighet och klarhet genom att behålla en platt gammakurva (2,20), ursprunglig färgtemperatur och perceptuellt korrekta färger.
Design och spel
Den här profilen riktar sig till designers som arbetar professionellt med färger, även för spel och filmer. Design and Gaming tar skärmpaneler till sina gränser och gör dem så exakta som möjligt i sRGB IEC61966-2-1-standarden för webb och HDTV, vid vitpunkt D65.
Health-Guard
Health-Guard eliminerar skadlig pulsbreddsmodulering (PWM) och minskar negativt blått ljus som påverkar våra ögon och vår kropp. Eftersom den är skräddarsydd för varje panel lyckas den hålla färgerna perceptuellt korrekta. Health-Guard simulerar papper så att trycket på ögonen minskas kraftigt.

4. Battery life
The 90Wh battery pack works pretty well with the Ryzen 6800H, showing the CPU’s power efficiency. The laptop lasts for 12 hours and 55 minutes of Web browsing, or 11 hours and 3 minutes of video playback. 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.
1 reason NOT to buy the ASUS TUF Gaming A17 FA707
1. I/O
The I/O is the backbone of the system, as you’ll be connecting all types of peripherals or accessories. Due to using AMD hardware, Thunderbolt support is flying through the window. An SD card reader is also missing. What is available are two USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports, two USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports, an HDMI 2.0b port, an Ethernet port, and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
