Overview

A six core processor paired with a dedicated graphics chip drives this TUF Gaming laptop, which has a backlit keyboard, a matte IPS display and HDMI output. Storage is a flash drive and memory is DDR5.

Gamers and students who play on the side get strong graphics and a smooth screen in a large laptop. The two USB ports and one HDMI output are limited for a desktop-style setup. The battery is small for the power draw.

Who it's for
