ASUS TUF Gaming FX504 Introduction
ASUS has just announced the new TUF Gaming series of gaming notebooks for the market. These new notebook computers stand out from ASUS’s ROG product lineup as they focus primarily on affordable gaming experiences. Armed with the latest Intel 8th Generation Core i7 processors, the TUF Gaming notebooks will provide unparalleled computing and gaming performance when coupled with the latest desktop class NVIDIA GeForce Pascal based GPUs. We are literally getting desktop performance in a portable notebook computer’s form factor.
Affordable Gaming Laptop without Compromises
The TUF Gaming gaming notebooks promises great value as well. Specifically, for the Singapore market, there will be two versions available. The basic version comes with GTX 1050 dedicated GPU and a 128GB SSD, while the higher-end model comes with a GTX 1050Ti with a 256GB SSD. All other specifications remain the same. These notebooks do not compromise in terms of performance and experience, as they are designed with pretty impressive base specifications.
As we understand, a GTX 1050 and GTX 1050Ti is great for gaming on the 1080p resolution, based on our tests on other machines that are equipped with it. It is a great GPU to be equipped with the TUF Gaming FX504, and we are sure that gamers will be able to make full use of the graphics card for smooth frame rates on their favorite games.
Starting with $1,598 SGD, the systems will come with the new Hexa-Core Intel Core i7 8750H processor, 8GB of DDR4 RAM running at 2666MHz, a 15.6inch Full HD Display and Gigabit WLAN card. Do refer to the specifications at the bottom.
On top of its affordability, the TUF Gaming FX504 series also comes with a few unique technologies that enhances the overall user experience.
Unique Technologies
HyperCool Technology
ASUS’s HyperCool Technology is an improved cooling solution brought
about by an enhanced fan and thermal design. The system can expel harmful dust and
dirt particles through the dedicated tunnels to prevent build-up which can affect heat dissipation effectiveness. The FX504 also comes with two fans, which are
placed right below the WASD keys to ensure that the keyboard stays cool throughout
your gaming session.
