I’ve got another laptop review for you. This one is the Asus ROG Strix II GL504GS-DS74 Scar Edition! It features a GTX 1070, i7-8750H, 16GB of ram, 256 GB SSD, 1 TB HDD, a plethora of ports, and costs between $1950-2000 depending on where you buy it. This review was NOT SPONSORED. It is an honest and truthful review to the best of my ability. We’ve benchmarked it, tested it out, and I’ve got the info on whether or not it’s going to be worth buying. Watch the full review for more info!

I completely disagree on some points
First, you recommend getting 1000 series for gaming because it’s enough, but
a) as soon as new cards come out, games will become more demanding, not all of them but many of them, 1000 series is 2 years old now and just not future proof.
b) the cards are more efficient. Since heat is an issue in laptops, a user(who cares about portability and noise at least) should always get the newest and most efficient hardware. For instance, a laptop with gtx 2060 would perform as gtx 1070, would cost about the same, but it would be thinner, lighter and quieter
Second, I always disagree on thermal testing with liquid metal, because
a) this is NOT how most people are gonna buy a laptop
b) it needs to be replaced from time to time, and most people simply would not want to send their laptop far away somewhere just to replace it, as most people, I’m pretty sure live far away from HID evolution offices
Gu501 is better value

i quite enjoy the acer helios 300.. i got it on amazon for 1,049 and on a 5 month payment plane (so 209 or so a month) and it does everything ive wanted it to to the max, plays all the games i enjoy at 100+fps at max.. does over heat some so it needs a cooling pad, and it doesnt have a disc drive but both of those are only about $50 more.. i woulda done PC build but i needed a laptop as i travel some..
It’s called ROG Strix SCAR II, not Strix II Scar Edition
Wait the msi gs65 has a 144hz screen??
