Honest to god ASUS just knows how to boil peoples nerves. Whats the point of purchasing the new laptops if the older ones are far cheaper and providing the same stuff, I mean the mid-range one is absolute Crap a 1650 with a Ryzen 5 ?!?! Really ASUS, might as well drink my own p*** at this point waiting for them to actually nail a proper price on a laptop that's worth it.
Look at the previous TUF's right now on amazon prime Canada, you can grab the Ryzen 7-3750 (older gen) with an RTX 2060 for $1600 CAD. now you're giving us a processor that's (Supposedly) better on Power consumption, but your charging us an entire overhaul of $500 extra just because it has double the cores and threads, doesn't make sense at all. judging by the comments as well the power consumption of the 4800 was a sham as well as it's displaying 45W instead of 15W. Honestly there's just no point of beleiving the whole, (oh we want a mid range laptop for gamers who are on a budget) that's BS, if i wanted to crank 2 Grand on something I would've gotten a buffed up GS65 or 75, or even a used AERO online. smfh ASUS if you're reading this, both you and AMD can kiss my a** with your promised prices and dates.
Thank You and God Bless
