This laptop will run circles around that newly announced/priced Steam Machine at $1,050. This device completely outperforms Valve's overpriced garbage in pretty much any user case. 😂

Thanks for posting this OP ! I think like other asus tuf gaming laptops.. someone please jump in and correct me if I'm wrong.. there's room for a second m2 slot for added hard drive storage
Of course the problem is finding a second m2 drive that doesn't cost a fortune given AI centers driving the price of consumer PC parts sky high ... not a criticism of this deal by any means OP , in this day and age with AI centers driving up the cost of anything computer related including laptops it's good to know about deals like this!

I own this model and saw the benchmark graph floating around on Reddit that included the SM. Made me happy. I solely play Steam games on mine (mostly Civ7). Great machine.
Replacing the following soon...maybe 2014 Asus RoG 15.6" Full HD Gaming Notebook, i7-4710HQ, 860M, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, W8.1 (W10). I've never had an issue with it, other than the battery giving up a few years back.

What would be the battery life of this computer under non gaming light browsing type loads?
REALLY depends on whether the 4050 can be turned off when doing so. If so probably 4-5 hours of light use. If not, lol.

Quoting you as you might have some idea of the battery life. There are basically no reviews of this with a Ryzen 7 170. I didn't even know this CPU existed until this deal was posted lol.

It's OK, not spectacular. I def keep it plugged in when running Civ7 because the fan goes like crazy.

Yeah I mean when gaming you need plugged in regardless. Physics won't let a gaming machine with a high powered DGPU run at high levels for long on battery.
If you aren't gaming I would expect this machine to get like 5-6 hours.
