Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

Well, in short, when the coolers are running above 2800 rpm, they are not audible, in some games there is no squeak at all! 3. After resetting the system to the factory settings, the glitches in the asus services disappeared. This happens and I knew about it, but against the general background of jambs, this seemingly minor problem was already an unpleasant nuance! 4. Since the problems with asus services have been resolved, I made an undervolt on the gpu, I got a good chip, at 0.700 it runs at a frequency of 1590 Mhz, this is very good and enough for me, while it is not inferior to the stock parameters when the video output was up to 130 tdp Right now this indicator is 100-110 tdp and the temperature in long battles does not rise above 77 degrees, often 72-75 which suits me completely, and at the same time the cooler speeds have decreased and the noise has decreased.

Pros
  • I bought this laptop in early May, or rather G733QR-HD022 I immediately wanted to return it the next day, but I got on the weekend and the service did not work, so I decided to test it again, I will describe the problems below. In general, I got a good copy, assembly for 4+ (I myself own apple products, and I think that their macbooks are the standard of build quality), so this laptop surprised me that nothing creaks, falls off or sticks out, and I had a lot of laptops the last couple of years, from dream machines based on clevo to top-end msi, gigabyte, asus, there is something to compare with. There are no lights at all, from the word at all, surprisingly! ! In general, the laptop looks solid, you can turn off all the backlights and not distinguish it from a gaming one (the person who, of course, doesn’t understand). Nice bonuses in the kit in the form of a backpack and a mouse, although I won’t use them, all my peripherals are logitech. The keyboard is optomechanical, it will be better than gigabyte, IMHO. In short, I am rarely surprised by laptops and do not stay for more than 3-5 months, but surprisingly I fell in love with this one, despite the fact that I immediately wanted to return it and there are jambs! Speakers - did not say it would be bad but not topchik), they are enough for many, but after the audio from msi, for me they are like me). calibrate the matrix, but if you are an ordinary user and you don’t care about squeaks, squeals, lights, etc., then this laptop will be the best for you on the market. Of course, I advise you to buy!
Cons
  • As I wrote above, I wanted to return it! So, I was waiting for him for almost 3 weeks in the pulser store, when I came I flew for him in an instant, after a couple of days these laptops were not on sale, everything was sold out, you yourself understand why at this time ). came home satisfied, turned on a couple of hours and poyuzal . 1. I hate when there is vibration from coolers, uneven and uneven sound during overclocking and running at high speeds of coolers 2. The squeak of throttles, it so happened that I hear them everywhere, and often I sit at a laptop at night and in silent mode it can terribly infuriate! 3. A couple of glitches in the rog asus services, because of which I could not throw 150 mhz on the video card or make an undervolt 4. GPU up to 84-85 degrees, in my opinion this is a lot, well, a maximum of 80 but not higher! So after all this, I reset it to the factory settings and packed it in a box, the next day I called the store and they told me that the service on the weekend would come in a couple of days! then I find out that I can’t exchange it for the same one, since there are more of them no, but there is no desire and time to wait another month! I decided to re-unpack and try it again! so the second time it was not so bad) 1. I figured out the coolers by setting the correct quiet mode, now just a desktop, animated wallpaper, a browser with 10-15 tabs, the coolers do not turn on at all, maybe once an hour if I connect something from the software! And only the second time I I noticed that the coolers vibrate only in a certain rpm range (2300-2500 is the lowest rpm in quiet mode if they turn on at high rpm in games 4800-5200 in turbo mode). And then after a day of full load on them, or they a bit developed, whether I'm used to it, but for me it was not a big problem, especially if you play games, you won't notice it at all! In short, minus one problem! 2. With the squeak of throttles, I also thought that it would often appear, but again I was mistaken, only during games, and then not all, and this squeak is not from the cpu, but most likely from the gpu, and perhaps they even have one power circuit.
