As well as announcing the imminent availability of
their new Asus RoG Strix GL503 and GL703 gaming laptops, Asus has also
announced the launch of its new TUF Gaming FX504 gaming laptop, although the
company has not yet announced any pricing for the Windows 10 gaming notebook.
The affordable gaming laptop priorities stability and durability above all else
and is equipped with the latest-generation Intel Core processor and NVIDIA
GeForce GTX 10-Series graphics.
Internally the FX504 is powered by the 8th
Generation Intel Core i7-8750HQ processor, and features up to NVIDIA GeForce
GTX 1050 Ti graphics with full Microsoft DirectX 12 support, offering a
combination of “performance and portability”, says Asus.
Equipped with a 15.6-inch display with an ultrafast
120Hz refresh rate, a 3ms grey-to-grey response time, a 130 percent sRGB colour
gamut, and wide-view technology. The gaming laptop is capable of displaying up to
120 frames per second (fps) and comes equipped with Asus’s HyperCool technology
to “significantly prolongs its lifespan and provides stable cooling during
intense gaming marathons”.
Wireless connectivity is provided by an Intel
802.11ac Wave 2 module providing data transfer rates of up to 1.7Gbps, 12X
faster than baseline 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi. Asus is also equipped the gaming laptop
with 2×2 MIMO configuration offering up to 30 percent wider coverage than a
traditional 1×1 configuration.
