The chassis is not the biggest highlight of the TUF Gaming F17. If you want a little more graphics power, you will have to turn to the AMD models offered more or less at the same prices. On the other hand, it should be noted that the TUF Gaming F15 / F17 does not offer a higher GPU option than the RTX 3060… Unlike the TUF A15 / A17, which carry a maximum of one RTX 3070. A more high-end version of the device is also offered by ASUS, this time with a Core i9-11900H, 32 GB of RAM, and an RTX 3060. It already offers decent firepower to play at 1080p. On the Internet, an i7-11800H / RTX 3050 Ti model is also easy to find at $ 1,499. The TUF F17 is marketed from 1200 USD in the basic version (Core i5 / RTX 3050/60 Hz screen). But before getting to the heart of the matter, here is the complete technical sheet of ASUS’s model.ġ7.3”, Full HD (1920 x 1080), 144 Hz, IPS + FreeSync Our ready-made ASUS TUF Gaming F17 relies on a Core i7-11800H (8 cores / 16 threads in 45 W). In May, Intel caught up with a slew of chips a few months later, ranging from the Core i5-11260H (6 cores / 12 threads for 45W max TDP) to the massive i9-11980HK (8 cores / 16 threads for 65W maximum TDP). At the same time, AMD launched a line full of high-performance ZEN 3 chips configurable from 35 to 54 W.

What predestined this triptych to machines favoring good battery life and compactness, devices aiming for raw performance than remaining without any other solution than the old Comet Lake-H chips, launched in spring 2020. It was then limited to three references not exceeding 35 W TDP. During CES 2021, the firm modestly unveiled the first half of its Tiger Lake-H range, engraved in 10 nm SuperFin. Intel has taken its time to launch its comprehensive offering of high-performance laptop processors. We are finally in possession of a TUF Gaming F17 equipped with a whole new Core i7-11800H let’s see what he has in his stomach! Intel calendar requires the variants equipped with the new Tiger Lake-H 45W chips arrived this year with a little delay compared to the versions under AMD Zen 3 processors. ASUS offers two types of configurations for its TUF Gaming laptop PC: the A15 / A17 models under AMD processors and the F15 / F17 under Intel processors.
