We've tested 17-inch gaming rigs that cost three times as much as the TUF Gaming A17 (Asus' own ROG Strix Scar 17 comes to mind), but for our benchmark comparisons here I chose four more or less affordable gamers. A free 14-day trial of DTS headphone software is included.
DTS:X Ultra software lets you make a minimal difference in the audio's character by choosing among music, movie, RPG, shooter, strategy, and voice presets, or playing with an equalizer. Sound from the bottom-firing speakers isn't very loud, even cranked to the max, but it isn't bad-short on bass, but clear and able to distinguish overlapping tracks. The 720p webcam captures adequately bright and colorful but rather soft-focus and noisy images. The rear edge of the lid is sliced away to reveal a strip of the deck with "TUF GAMING" lettering. The lid is decorated by four faux corner screws and an ungainly winged-shield logo that (sort of) spells "TUF" if you squint at it sideways.
The GTX 1660 Ti won't max out the system's 120Hz-refresh-rate screen-and the screen isn't the most gorgeous thing you've seen-but the A17 is a good option for plus-size gaming on a budget.Īvailable in Fortress Gray or Bonfire Black (my test model TUF706IU-AS76 was the former), the A17 combines an aluminum lid with a plastic keyboard deck and underside. It offers longer battery life and tougher construction than many competitors, passing MIL-STD 810H tests against shock, vibration, and environmental extremes. It backs its 17.3-inch full HD display with a capable Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GPU. It combines a beefy eight-core AMD Ryzen 7 4800H "Renoir" processor with a very ample 16GB of RAM and a positively generous 1TB solid-state drive.
