Can’t wait for their bloated armoury crate to install on my computer as soon as I launch it.

Considering they’re basically doing that with their Chromebox line, it is not that big of a surprise.

Eh, I’ll very thoroughly look up customer reviews outside amazon before buying anything from Asus. I have a GL702 laptop that heats up like a fucking stove, has the flimsiest cooling system and, to top it off, causes intense screen tearing when running hot. I keep expecting the screen to die from excessive heat exposure any time I’m playing.

My dad and aunt have used Zenbooks and Vivobooks for years without issue. Maybe the ROG lineup aren’t as durable?

It’s possible. I have an older S46C ultrabook from 2012 and the fella still runs good. The downside is that the GPU sits on the left of the mouse touchpad, so your left wrist will feel the heat if you play certain games

Everything I’ve purchased from Asus for the last 10 years has been absolute garbage. HP and Dell are better.
That’s right, I said it.
