It's rare for us to be this thoroughly impressed with a gaming laptop. Aside from the minor knock against battery life, there's nothing wrong with Asus ROG Strix GL502. In fact, almost everything else about the machine is stellar from the crisp keyboard...
We were blown away by the performance and features Asus infused into the Strix GL502VM-DB71. You may find it difficult to find a gaming laptop with an Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of memory, a GTX 1060 6GB GPU, and Nvidia G-Sync onboard priced below...
Abstract: 2017 wasn't anywhere near 2020 in terms of gaming, but still, there were plenty of unforgettable games for computers released in that year. At first glance, the first titles that stand out are PUBG, Fortnite, Assassin's Creed: Origin, Wolfenstein: The New...
strong CPU and GPU performance, steady fan noise under low loads, G-Sync standard w/ no Optimus, FHD and UHD display options, NVMe SSD + 2.5-inch SATA III, GTX 1060/1070 options, easy serviceability, relatively thin, rigid chassis
no 120 Hz/5 ms display options, relatively soft keyboard keys, loud fan noise when gaming, no Killer WLAN options, speakers lack bass, no Thunderbolt 3, short battery life
Similar to our conclusions between the Skylake XPS 13 9350 and Kaby Lake XPS 13 9360, the Skylake GL502VM and Kaby Lake GL502VM are essentially interchangeable. Even gamers will be hard pressed to find any real-world performance advantages from the Kaby L...

Well, what can I say. The GL502VM is generally a good machine with the basic parts in place – 3D performance and keyboard. It also relatively smaller and more lightweight and the cooling system's noise levels are relatively low no matter what. However, it...
