Asus TUF Dash F15 review: Pro gaming in a slimline chassis

 

A decent gaming capable laptop with an affordable price tag. So what gives? We've been testing the TUF Dash F15 to see whether it's hot or not.

Compact and portable ; Nice accents and keyboard lighting ; Capable speakers

No webcam ; No DisplayPort output ; Awkward USB port layout

A decent gaming performer with some nice specification options - at a price tag that isn't going to make you cry. So what more could you want? Well, there are other options that can squeeze out yet more performance if that's extra important to you -...

Hands on: Asus TUF Dash F15 (FX516P) is an understated but attractive gaming laptop - Techgoondu

 

The Asus TUF Dash F15 balances budget with performance better than many gaming laptops. Its understated style trumps blinged-up rivals too.

ASUS TUF Dash F15 Review: An all well-rounded notebook for both gaming and work

 

The TUF F15 is easy to carry around, has an impressive battery life, decent gaming performance, great productivity performance and actually feels kind of premium too

Excellent battery life ; Good productivity performance ; Polished build ; Display quality is quite possibly the best in class

No built-in webcam ; Does not come bundled with one too ; No option for higher-end RTX 30-Series GPU for Singapore market

ASUS TUF Dash F15 Review w/ Tiger Lake H35

 

Intel announced their mobile Tiger Lake-H CPUs at the virtual CES in January, with headlines talking

RTX 3070 provides plenty of graphics grunt.

The power required to drive the CPU to 4.3GHz is outrageous.

Intel desperately needs a better process for its mobile CPUs so they can match the low power draw of AMD Ryzen.

The Asus TUF Dash F15 gaming laptop is efficient but not excellent

 

Efficient battery, somewhat deficient gaming performance.

Solid design ; Tactile keyboard ; Good thermal management ; Battery life lasts beyond a workday ; Optional USB-C charging

No webcam ; McAfee antivirus bloatware comes preinstalled ; Low-powered Nvidia RTX 3070 ; Quad-core processor shows its limits in demanding applications

Asus’ efficient TUF Dash F15 gaming laptop packs in a slick design, a great keyboard, and a fast refresh rate display, but the sum of its parts don’t pan out for gamers who want maximum performance for their money.

Asus TUF Dash F15 Review

 

Solid 1080p gaming performance (with a caveat) ; Competitive battery life for a gaming machine ; Quiet cooling fans ; Smooth 240Hz screen ; Comfortable keyboard

On graphics, underperformed two other RTX 3070-based laptops tested so far ; No webcam or biometric features ; Screen could tilt back more

Asus' TUF Dash F15 churns out competitive frame rates without costing a fortune, thanks to all-new silicon: an Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 Series GPU, and an Intel "Tiger Lake-H" processor.

Asus TUF Dash F15 (RTX 3070) review

 

The TUF Dash 15 looks like a Star Wars Stormtrooper

Striking, all-white design ; Competition-beating battery life ; Military-tested chassis ; Remains relatively cool while gaming

No webcam ; Quiet speakers ; Dim display

The Asus TUF Dash F15 has a striking, frosty-white chassis that stays relatively cool under pressure, but its absent webcam and dim display are a bummer

Asus TUF Dash F15 review (FX517ZM model - Core i7-12650H, RTX 3060)

 

This article is my detailed review of the Asus TUF Dash F15 2022 generation, a portable and excellently priced RTX 3060 laptop meant for all-purpose daily use

lighweight and well built for the class ; good inputs, IO ; good FHD 300Hz and QHD screen options ; significantly more powerful than the 2021 generation ; 76W battery and fair runtimes for an Intel platform, USB-C charing support ; competitively priced

still some quirks affecting everyday ergonomics ; most ports squeezed together on the left edge ; careful about the FHD 144hz panel option

Asus TUF Gaming F15 Laptop Review: Finely Tuned Performer

 

Full review of the Asus TUF Gaming F15, powered by the Intel Core i9-11900H and the RTX 3060 GPU.

Top-tier Intel Core i9-11900H CPU ; 144Hz refresh rate display ; 16GB RAM

Slightly lower screen brightness

The Asus TUF Gaming F15 is a good gaming laptop and is also an excellent device for content creators. I feel that the Core i9-11900H is a bit of an overkill for the laptop of this class, considering they are just pairing it with the RTX 3060 GPU.
