Asus TUF Gaming FX504GD is a gaming machine launched in 2018, but is it still a good choice at this point?
This is a gaming laptop that was launched in April 2018. It has been on the market for 5 years now. The Asus TUF FX504GD is still holding its position as a quality gaming laptop in its price range. Let’s take a look at the detailed reviews of this FX504GD gaming laptop.
Beautiful and quality design
The Tuf FX504GD laptop has a rather rugged design and is considered by many gamers to be extremely beautiful and cool. When holding the device in my hand, I can feel the raised and gradually lower ribs on the back of the screen towards the middle. The Asus logo is located right in the center of the screen cover.
Surrounding the device is a red strip that looks quite stylish. I highly appreciate the finish of this screen border. Because it is drawn in alternating, bumpy straight lines, it gives a certain feeling of solidity.
On the right side of the device is a KenKingston lock and a full-size SD card slot. The left side of the device will include: 1 charging power socket, RJ45 Lan port, HDMI port and a cluster of 3 USB sockets including 1 USB 2.0 and 2 3.0 sockets and finally a 3.5mm headphone jack.
The keyboard is a full-size keyboard and is equipped with red LED lights for working or entertaining in the dark. The keyboard is designed a little lower than the palm rest. The keys are 1.8mm apart, the 4 keys W, A, S, D are outlined in darker outlines, which will help our gaming experience to be better.
Hardware and performance
This gaming laptop is equipped with an extremely powerful CPU, the i7 8750H, with a Boost speed of up to 4.1 GHz, with 6 cores and 12 processing threads. This chip promises to help us handle all operations, including gaming and video rendering.
In addition, the device is also equipped with a discrete VGA GTX1050 4GB. The 1Tb HDD has a rotation speed of 5600rpm combined with a pre-installed SSD with a capacity of 128GB. With this large capacity, we will have high storage capacity as well as boot windows and load games very quickly.
Another advantage of the machine is Asus’s new heat dissipation technology called Hypercool Anti Dust Technology. This heat dissipation part will partly solve the problem of dust sticking to our heat dissipation fins.
In general, with this configuration, we can comfortably play current online games without any hesitation. However, you have to set different custom graphics accordingly.
When playing a gameplay quite similar to PUBG but the in-game calculations are not complicated. In return, the graphics requirements of this game are quite high, that is Battlefield 1.
The results are still quite good when playing at a fairly high average frame rate with low and medium settings. The remaining two settings show completely stable FPS while providing a great graphics experience.
The machine temperature is still maintained at around 4x degrees Celsius, which is quite cool. Even the place where the left hand rests to press the W, A, S, D keys is still kept cool because that is where the cooling fan is located.
In short, in the price range of 25 million, this Asus Tuf Fx504GD gaming laptop is still a tiger with strong fighting power. With a powerful processor, Asus’s excellent cooling technology, NVDIA Gerforce 10th generation graphics card and high-speed SSD hard drive. All show that this is a machine worth considering when we want to buy a gaming laptop.
