Chassis, connectors, screen of the Asus TUF Dash F15 TUF516PC-HN558W

With its dark Eclipse Gray design with robust angular lines due to its compliance with the MIL-STD-810G military resistance standard, this laptop with easy access to storage and RAM adopts gamer codes.

Its cooling is provided by 2 n-Blade fans (liquid crystal polymer, 83 pale), 5 heat pipes and 4 air outlets.

Thin and light, this versatile creator gaming laptop is devoid of a webcam while this feature is standard, what for sure to better preserve its privacy. If necessary, you can of course connect an external webcam.

A chiclet keyboard is present but skips a numeric keypad to easily enter the numbers while this feature is standard from 15 inches. Asus does not choose to offer as compensation its NumPad technology (NumberPad) to transform when you need it the touchpad into a touchpad. In any case we can obviously backlight the keyboard which is convenient to better distinguish its keys when the ambient light is reduced.

On the connectivity side, this versatile multimedia-oriented laptop will appeal to demanding users with its USB 4 Type-C Thunderbolt 4 (rare at this price level), its Wi-Fi ax wireless modules (newer and more powerful than Wi-Fi ac) and Bluetooth 5.1 for remote connections and communications, its convenient HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV and / or monitor for example, its Ethernet and audio ports or its 3 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers made up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you plug in a USB 3.0 device.

Gamers will be delighted that the screen adopts a frequency of 144Hz as it enhances the fluidity in games compared to the standard 60Hz. Thanks to its IPS technology, its viewing angles both horizontal and vertical are important but the colorimetry here is classic, lower than that of high-end IPS panels. With its 16/9th format and its Full HD definition, the screen lends itself in any case very well to the display of videos and more broadly of High Definition content. Thanks to its anti-reflective treatment, the screen is also more readable than a shiny slab in bright environments (e.g. outside).

Performance, battery life of the Asus TUF Dash F15 TUF516PC-HN558W

The Asus TUF Dash F15 TUF516PC-HN558W is a versatile high-performance and mobile laptop focused on creation and gaming.

It embeds the dedicated graphics card GeForce RTX 3050 ray tracing NVIDIA Ampere which allows you to watch photos and videos but also to play modest titles such as the Intel Iris Xe graphics module directly integrated into the processor.

The much more powerful GeForce RTX 3050 offers several advantages. First of all, to accelerate multimedia processing under software exploiting GPU computing power, such as Sony Vegas or Adobe Photoshop/Premiere. Secondly, that of supporting many games for concessions under the opus greedy in graphic resources to obtain a good gameplay.

In fact, the Iris Xe is in practice preferred to the maximum by Optimus despite its modest performance because it consumes little energy which promotes autonomy.
In this regard, count on about 9 hours of operation on battery in light use. Nomads will be all the more interested as this versatile mobile computer oriented game and creation sees its transport facilitated by its finesse and its controlled weight.

The Iris Xe actually fits directly into the Quad Core i5-11300H Intel Tiger Lake-H processor. It is coupled with 8 GB of RAM to provide good overall performance to satisfy many users.

The storage is entrusted to a silent SSD while being more energy efficient than a hard drive, more resistant to shocks and much faster. As a result, thanks to the SSD, processing is much faster, especially as well as starts/stops and software/game launches, and you get to the cards of online games faster.

In fact, the SSD generally guarantees a much better responsiveness and fluidity to use than a simple hard disk. With its 512 GB, the SSD offers a capacity in line with the standard of hard drives. In case we need more space though, we can add a second SSD via the available M.2 slot. Or use an external storage unit. Favoring a USB 3.0 / Thunderbolt / USB-C device is then an interesting option to benefit from fast transfers.

If the finesse and weight contained are appreciable for transport, associated with the high-performance components on board they involve noise and heating in case of high stresses (eg treatments, games).
