Really impressed with the CPU performance on this one! ASUS did a great job here. Just wish it had a webcam / = Also, if you missed it I reviewed the Galaxy S22 Ultra which you can find here - ruclips.net/video/Q1fH87gw0VU/видео.html
Uh... Any reason you don't do have gaming benchmarks vs. other laptops? We want a sense of how it compares with other laptops with 3080tis.
@@mohamedahmed1023 I can include them going forward I use the same games so if you pull up both videos you can get an idea.
No webcam? Why?
@@MatthewMoniz Thanks!
Hi Matthew; could you please review the Intel 12th gen ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED (UX3402) if ASUS are willing to send you one; that model peaked my interest because of its claimed display. Good review of Strix Scar 15 but lack of webcam is a bit of a bummer.
No webcam? It's perfect!
No face show online class, no hacking, no need to cover it by a disgusting flex, perfect, gonna buy it...
Lack of camera is absolutely not a problem since you can buy an external one with the specs that you need. In some sense it’s even good that it comes without one because if you don’t need it you aren’t paying for it, if you need it you’re going to buy the one you specifically need
It's a gaming laptop focused for eSports I don't think anyone would need a webcam
Who want web ? Lol
@@oleggazaryan7469 no need to buy external webcam you can use your phones camera as a webcam there are a lot of software can do this !
Bro like seriously you have to hype up the best laptop setups series really love it and keep it up
Hey man love the reviews, just ordered this laptop and can’t wait for it to come in!
YaY! another MatthewMoniz video! Just love your content, your reviews are unique, detailed and entertaining and help make an informed decision. Thank you!
Wow, thanks!
I have last year's model, only in 17", and AMD 5900. It is a beast. I run a 36" external ROG Tuf monitor, screen recording with Unreal Engine, and other 3D software all running, and it rocks DaVinci Resolve Studio exporting in 4k.
good luck with the TUF
long term that laptop aint good
@@nanezferrer3565 it's a tuf monitor, not laptop.
@@Drobbik oh sorry
i thought it was the laptop
ROG and TUF are two different categories.
@@sid4880 yes, they are. Monitor is the tuf. Laptops are ROG
Excited for the G14 review
Great review, but we kind of hovered over the temps, I think since it's a laptop I would go deeper in content around the TDP & the heat associated to the respective TDPs would be useful. It looked like 55w TDP you were drawing 82C. Is that PL1? I'm sure to hit those cinebench scores with the 12900 you were spiking to high 90s, and if not then I would truly commend ASUS on their thermal management of this chassis with the 12900.
Performance measurements highly depend on the TDP settings nowadays due to the different tuning from every manufacturer for their chassis. For example, pinning the cinebench scores of this vs the MSI GE76 doesn't mean much if you don't consider the TDP values they were running with.
Great great review. Was wondering if the included a mux switch and 2 slots with 2 sticks of ram. Thank you
Great review, how hard is it to upgrade the SSD and memory?
great video man!!! can u do a comparison video between this the strix scar and the new razer blade 14
Any idea when will i5/i7 laptops wll come out ?
The budget segment will probably get quite interesting this year
Great video Matthew. Seems to be a great product
Loved the vid as always! Can you please review the 2022 model of the Zephyrus g15 as soon as you get your hands on it? Many of us waiting in anticipation.
I have an asus rog strix g512 with i7 10870h and rtx 2070 super, and I love it, it’s super fast still, and I hope it lasts me for another couple of generations, as long as I can do 1080p 60+ fps at high to very high settings in triple A titles I’m happy
Hey Matthew, would it be possible to do a comparison between the ASUS ROG G14 and the ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 showcased in this video? I have not seen anyone do a comparison between these two gaming laptops and I would be interested to see how you would critique them side by side.
Hi Matthew! Many thanks for this review. How good is it at video editing, especially rendering?
Do reply.
Thanks in advance.
would love to see a scar 15, m16, g15 side by side comparison
There are two G15s - Zephyrus G15 and Strix G15.
@@blue4059 isn't the strix a part of the scar lineup? I was talking about the zephyrus.
@@blue4059 he specified strix 15, so the other model could only be the g15
@@blue4059 M16 is not bigger, same dimensions as Zephyrus G15
@@trexeyesonly55 the screen is bigger, the size of the laptop is same.
This laptop is such a beast... Kicking i9 HK butt off .. really impressive performance
Fr but I'm bit skeptical bcoz high performance mode in asus is overclocked where as msi doesn't have automatic overclock you have to do it manually
@Vineet I'm very positive ryzen's next gen mobile chips are going to be way more power efficient than Intel's
@@anmolsharma4049 when are all these releasing on laptops? I need one by May
just got this baby 2 days ago, gaming is so smooth :)
I used to have a Asus SCAR II with the i7 8750h and GTX 1060 , hands down the best keyboard i have ever used , great screen and pretty nice thermal solution + actually surprisingly good speakers . If i am to ever buy another Laptop i would definitely go with the SCAR again .
@@superlaggyrigs i sold the laptop an Year ago because i wanted to switch to a desktop, and let me tell you , i still miss it soo much !
I have the scar III model, it’s amazing and I love it’s design.
I am using the i7-8750H with RTX 2070 ! Wondering why they remove the webcam in the newer model...
Yessir good to hear, got the 17inch model same specs as video, better cooling
@@wallacet4789 Hello there fellow Strix scar RTX 2070 user
Can you control the fan speed manually or with temp/speed profiles? I'm running 3D software and I can't wait for the machine to decide if its hot enough, I need to get the fans cranking early. Is the exhaust out the side or back or both?
And what is that little notch for on the right hand side? Key caps dish you said? And that is used for....?
Hey Matthew, new subscriber here; would love to know where you got the Neon name plate?
great video that I was waiting for, could you please compare gaming performance with 2022 Zephyrus G14 6800S, at 1440p with raytracing, with a modern game like Battlefield 2042?
Coped one today, it's freaking sweetest using strictly for music production this thing takes it like a champ
Does gpu matter in music production?
@@Yoko.Kurama don’t think so, but the intel processor is a great thing to have
@@Yoko.Kurama no
Can you make a video on G14/15 too? And comparison as these are what majority is going to pick.
Would be more useful If you'll show gaming benchmarks comparing to other laptops
Good Day Sir! For you which has better sound quiality? Asus Scar or MSI raider?
Thanks for the review ! are you going to do a review for the G14 soon ?
Yes I am!
@@MatthewMoniz Great! Looking forward to it
When you talked about the windows key thing, I looked at my 2021 g15 and it also looks like that.
I'm so excited to see 2022 legion 5 and 5pro i think they will do a great job as well as Asus maybe better even
he actually approved an stickerjob
Its very rare but it was aligned i had to compliment them!
Good job
Btw plz make a video about the required system for 3d modeling and if a gaming laptop for example can meet the needs
And also about different display aspect ratios like 16×10 and 16×9 etc and the benefits of each
Tnk u so much
just got mine and I loveeeeeeee it
How many external monitors can you hook up to this? I see 3 ports but can you run all 3 at the same time?
Trying to decide if I should grab this or wait for the 40 series laptops
Thank you for a great review :)
I have a question, can I add this Sodimm Kingston FURY IMPACT 16GB DDR5 4800Mhz CL38 RAM to this laptop? (I got this ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 (2022) Gaming Laptop, 15.6” 300Hz IPS FHD Display, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti,Intel Core i9 12900H, 16GB DDR5, 1TB SSD, Per-Key RGB Keyboard, Windows 11 Home, G533ZW-AS94 from Amazon)
Is there a 17 inch model? How do you think it would compare to the 17 inch Zephyrus?
Can't decide between this, the new legion 5i pro (if you can find it anywhere), or the new Helios 300 model from best buy... 2020 model of helios has treated me well for 2 years of heavy use so I'm leaning towards the new model but I cannot pull the trigger..
Are you planning to review the new all AMD G14 in the not too distant future?
Hey , do you get webcam in the box , in which variant can you find it in?
I used to have the Scar 3 and planning to upgrade to g14. Would you recommend the g14 6800s or this one?
what program did you use to see if the laptop was throttling or not at 6:14?
Hi. It's a gaming laptop, but do you think It'll be good using for music production? (specific for FL Studios)
Where is the link to the laptop? Thanks
Looking forward to Strix G15/17
To avoid the transparent keyboard layout
& Better Battery life in lite loads...
Can you please tell me how much would it be priced for?
Im getting this next week. Im so happy.
Let mek know how you like it!
Hi, any release date for the 17 inch version ? Thank !
Damn, this is my perfect laptop upgrade...if it had a webcam.
Matthew, have you ever looked at the FHD model? The 3070 Ti config with it seems like a really good deal, so I'm really curious.
Yeah same
@@BedoNBeyoo better get 1080p agree)
ordered one.
For ROG Strix SCAR series only 2K display. For 1080P you need to go ROG Strix G series but using AMD 6000.
@@muhd.roszaimanrossli9846 why only 2K?
Maybe 2022.
For the sound test actually you can use dolby atmos and set to dynamic. Believe me the sound become a lot better ;). ROG give dolby atmos why don't use ^_^
The Dolby software really does make a world of difference after taking the time to tune it to my liking. It's actually rather surprising how good these speakers can sound with that software.
one of the things people dont mention but it actually really sucks is that the screen cant go above like 120 deg
Just scored one of these for $1,666 including tax and shipping, I can't fucking wait for it to arrive. This thing seems like it's a beast.
Matthew , please after your review for zephyrus g15 please compare it with amd version of strix g15
Any word on you getting any Ryzen 6000 laptops soon?
It does look good. Well done Asus.
Didn't last year's Strix come with a vapor chamber? Or was that just the G15 Advantage Ed?
Hi. In your opinion, which is the better laptop, Asus ROG Strix SCAR 15 or MSI Raider GE 66? I need to buy a powerful laptop for 3D modeling and with great processing for structural calculation. Thanks
Msi
@@TrueDaturaMindNz wrong dude asus
@@wrathfully48 which one will run cooler?
@@TrueDaturaMindNz Asus bruh!
@@TrueDaturaMindNz definitely asus just don’t buy zephrus m16💀
Good video, it's a beast of a laptop, between the Asus Rog Strix Scar 15, the new HP Omen 16, the Asus M16 and the Asus G15 amd which would be better, and seeing that the Asus M16 gets very hot I don't know if it's true
when will this be available to purchase?
Watching this on my Scar 15 (2022). Awesome machine.It run Elden Ring on Max Settings with flinching.
Did you change your camera? this video looks insane, congrats
Which budget laptop would you recommend for playing warzone at least 60 fps?
Just rearranged a few things = ) tweaked some settings. Thanks Genaro! Whats your budget for budget laptops? Warzone is very unoptimized at least a 3060 would be the minimum
@@MatthewMoniz $1200 usd max
I forgot to say I’m not looking for max settings, medium at 60 fps it’s ok
So what's better the raider or Asus scar for gaming and content?
That Delay on touchpad can be fixed with Driver's I had similar problem which was irritating me so much. I really don't know how but probably with indows reinstalation or driver's update I fixed that issue
I loved this video so much that I turned off my adblock and refreshed to watch with ads.
Thanks I appreciate it!
When and where can I buy this?
Well made video. Instant SUBB
Thank you! Welcome to the channel
Is there any good reviews on laptops that are Qhd but play at 1080p res?
HELLO, NEED HELP. IM CHOOSING BETWEEN THIS AND THE NEW ZEPHYRUS M16 2022 I7 12TH GEN. WHICH ONE IS BETTEr?
Bro, please do reviews of:
1. Dell Alienware m15 R7 (preferably with mechanical keyboard)
2. Asus ROG Zephyrus M16
ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 and these 2 mentioned above are the laptops that I am looking to buy this year.
Thanks to anyone who likes this comment and pushes it up in the comment section so we increase the chance of Matthew seeing it.
When will this be available and for how much?
ive had this laptop for 2 years now, its a MONSTER, 4r! mine has the i9-12900H, RTX 3060 and Came with 16GB DDR5 RAM @4800Mhz (i upgraded to 64GB RAM and 6800Mhz DDR5) and my display is 300Hz, some models are only 240Hz. this laptop can handle anything you throw at it4r tho! i can play warzone on Extreme settings at 120FPS on average, CyberPunk on Ultra Settings i get around 100FPS (depends on Ray-Tracing Enabled or Not, but RTX always hits FPS Hard) it also has the option to add another SSD (two SSd Slots total) so i threw Two 2TB Samsung 980 Pro SSD's in mine! its one hell of a machine! i almost love it more than my Desktop (12700K, TUF3060Ti, 64GB DDR4 3200Mhz)
I bought it a week ago. Is is one beast of a laptop. Not too bulky for my taste. I have an issue with the screen being registered twice from time to time causing flickering. I am not sure if it is a hardware or a software bug. I feel it is mostly a software bug though as it seems to happen when I switch the laptop to eco mode for longer battery (aiming for those 10 hours) and closing the lid. When I open the lid or reboot the screen starts to flicker and display settings show two screens which are duplicated. Disabling screen two make things work normally. I get a feeling it is some glitch with the i9 igpu and the nvidia gpu switch
How much did it cost you??
@@Baba_Muni £2300. Which is not the most expensive laptop out there. I use it for work mostly coding video games
Much better value than the new zephyrus g14 imo
@@Baba_Muni I do not know if they are comparable. There is no swiss army knife in gaming laptops I am afraid. The laptop that does it all if you get my drift. It is a good laptop, sturdy and fast for now. Also branding is crucial for a lot of people who would prefer ROG to lets say Alienware or Razer.
Hows the battery life on your end if you don't mind me asking
How about thermals/time? I dont want to open it too much, only to clean fans maybe.
Any idea when you will have a 2022 zephyrus g15 for review?
Info on pricing and release date?
Does it have bluetooth for an xbox one controller and can I use the HDMI port to hook up to an external monitor or tv?
Waiting for G14 & G15 reviews
Hi. I´m going to buy a new latop, and I am between MSI GE76 Raider (1440p panel, and 3070Ti), and the Asus scar 17 (same config). Which one it is the best?
Hey , what do you thing on the rtx 3060 model ?
I have this exact laptop but I don’t have the num lock on my touch pad. Do some just not come with it or is this enabled somewhere?
It's already out for sale? Where to buy this?
I would like to see a camera, even a very basic one. Love the cybepunky design
A clip on is better anyway and is directional where one built in is set.
With that thunderbolt, a clip on camera would do just fine, sure it's a little more hassle, but it will be much higher quality and less limiting than a built-in camera because you can actually move it and angle it how you want.
Does it support egpu? The thunderbolt 4 on their site only mentioned it supports display
Is it out already? How much could be a range on this?
does this have the opto mechanical keyboard like the 2021 model?
I want to see a comparison with the strix 15 advantage with the rx 6800m... See how much were paying for the NVIDIA badge
This is like buying Bentley with no wheels
I'm considering buying this laptop for work and daily use, I can't find any work/business laptops that has the new cpus (Asus/msi/lenovo), however the webcam is the only thing stopping me from buying it as I need it for zoom calls.
😂😂
I have this machine, 16gb model. Mixed bag when it comes to thermals according to reddit. My person experience with mine is the CPU runs very hot. Soon as I hit it with cinebench CPU goes to high 90s and cpu throttles back to like 2.5 - 3.0ghz for the run. Not close to the 5ghz advertised turbo. This is on a flat desk with and without a using a cooling pad. Im leaning to a poor application of liquid metal from factory. Spoke to Asus, cant do this myself as it will invalidate the warranty but I cant be bothered to send it out.
How is it working now?!...i heard bios update fixed it is it true?!
@@eshaankamat5302 not really. Still high 80s just after a cold boot. High 90s when gaming. For me anyway
@@danielshaw007 I am actually thinking about buying this laptop but my only fear is thermals, is it ok now? did you find a workaournd? did you try limiting the cpu on manual mode to get less heat or did you find the sweet spot mode for gaming? and does stutter while gaming with those temps? thank you in advance ^_^
@Fares Ben Miled been a lot of bios updates since release. Seems to have settled down a bit now. Runs hot when running prime95 or cinebench but that's not realistic scenario when gaming. Gaming its excellent.
@@danielshaw007 thanks a lot for sharing
I really miss the Original first-gen Scar 15 Design. Asus ROG scar gl503vs.
Can you turn off all those lights to save battery?
Thanks for video.
I'm really sick of searching laptop. Every model has serious issues. Can't decide.
Watching on my 2021 Scar15 ..!!😊🥰
Is this better than g14 (2022)?? Asking so I can cop myself a gaming laptop.
Amazing!
Is the TX 3060 model of this good with the same i9 cpu
What's the difference between the scar 15 and 17
Hi, i cant use the numpad. Can you give some advice?
