for this laptop:
5900HS tdp 35w
RTX 3070 tdp 100w
3070 is TDP limited to around 80-95w, mediocre performance, even lower than 100w RTX 3060.
Asus doesn't have Mux switch, so 10-15% performance degradation on internal display.
Memory is half soldered on motherboard and it's single rank, so another system wide performance degradation of 10-15%, and you can't change the memory to make it dual rank.
HDMI is 2.0, and there is no way to reroute HDMI 2.1 from it's Type-C port since it's wired to internal radeon gpu. So no support for most HDMI 2.1 120hz 4k tv.
Because the HDMI is wired to radeon, you also suffers same 10-15% performance degradation due to same situation of no Mux switch, all traffic goes to HDMI need to buffer through internal radeon gpu. only way to properly avoid is using Type-C convert to DP 1.4.
All in all it's just a low power laptop. with glorify CPU. GPU specs and upsale price but almost 30-50% less performance than properly design similar laptop. And asus in all it's way prevent the end user to utilize it's full potential, gimped cpu, gpu, memory, ports and no camera...In return, it does have a good battery life.
My general guide on 2021 Asus/Rog laptop: stay away! intentionally crippled bad apples.

Also to get full effect of g15 would I have to connect to external monitor?
Was the legion 5 pro at 1400 a better deal than this is?
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank TwinPrime
I guess if you like the asus brand more, or must have dlss, its a reasonable trade. but at a $250 premium, i'd pass.
250 is a little steep though but it can be justifiable no doubt
