I wouldn't go for it for gaming because the tdp for the chassis (both cpu & gpu) is 85w. This doesn't leave much power budget for the cpu and very little thermal headroom for gaming workloads.
Here's the info page via Asus: https://www.asus.com/laptops/for-...led-m6500/

The one thing I do not like about this Vivibook Pro is the plaque they plaster on the top lid. That will make for fun times when cleaning the top. Why did they do this? Other Vivibook Pro series do not have the plaque. Yet more head-spinning trying to make heads-or-tails out of their laptop series. Apart from this model, most of their Pro models have WORSE displays than the non-Pro versions. It's weird.
BUT, I love ASUS laptops. Great value (on the right deal or with open box) and build quality is as good as anyone. Their designs are mostly great, too.

I'd personally buy a Legion Slim 5 14.5" next time, those seemed really well made, but no complaints about the Vivobook Pro 15.
Vivobook Pro 15 OLED delivers exceptional performance for all-day, every-day multitasking, with an AMD Ryzen™ 7000 series Processor and NVIDIA® RTX™ graphics for the ultimate productivity and creativity. This GPU is built with the powerful graphics performance of the NVIDIA® Ampere architecture.
The 120 Hz refresh rate and 0.2 ms response time OLED laptop display provides incredible smooth and clear motion visuals by reducing ghosting to an indiscernible level — now you can enjoy seamless visuals whether it's for gaming, creation, day-to-day work and media entertainment.
