Specs:
  • Ryzen 7-4800H 8-core, 16 thread CPU
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU
  • 15.6" 1920x1080 1080p display (Edit: 60Hz refresh rate)
  • 8GB DDR4 RAM
  • 512GB PCI-e Solid State Drive
  • Windows 10 Home 64-bit
  • Battery Life: 6 Hours
A lot of good deals on laptops popping up, but this is the only one I've seen with a good, modern 8-core processor, which is a massive leap over the 4-core i5 processors in a lot the machines I've seen posted. If you want something a bit futureproof, this is a great budget option.

Lol instead of linking it to me in the Gateway thread you post it as a deal here. So +$150 is worth it over the Gateway?

Gateway:
+ 120Hz
+ WiFi 6
+ USB-C port charges
- USB-C doesn't have display out
- i5 10th Gen
- 256GB SSD
- No keyboard backlight (?)

Asus:
+ Ryzen 7 4800H
+ 512GB SSD
+ Backlit Keyboard
+ USB-C has display out
- USB-C does not charge
- 60Hz
- WiFi 5

I'd say 8 core far better than 4 core cpu

Gateway = Junk. No argument at all.

This would be my pick of a laptop if buying. Ryzen 7 is faster than any intel based i7 counterparts out there, and a 2060 is a good (although not great) card. Wished Laptop manufacturers would pair a 2070 with this but...all laptop manufacturers somehow didn't offer this.

What would a 2060 laptop GPU compare to, in desktop GPU power? (When it comes to VR gaming)

Huge upgrade over. 1050ti. The 1050 isn't even close to the 2060's league.

2060>1660ti>1660 super>1660>1060 6 GB>1060>1050ti>1050

Don't get this. I bought it from best buy when they had this deal a few weeks ago and returned it. The screen is 60 hz and very dim. Also the Asus TUF A15 are known for terrible ventilation for heat.

They would pair it with a 2070 and add 300 bucks to the base price lol.
