The Asus TUF Gaming FX504, the company’s first gaming notebook under its ‘The Ultimate Force’ sub-brand, is a stylish notebook which not only offers great performance but also comes with a sturdy build quality for “unrivaled toughness and reliability”. Aimed at gamers who travel around the world from tournament to tournament with their notebooks, the TUF Gaming FX504 has a durable and lightweight build and offers enough performance for most major eSports titles.
Design & Build
The TUF Gaming FX504 features a unique aggressive look which is quite different from Asus’ ROG line of notebooks. Instead of the glowing ROG logo on the lid, the FX504 features a glowing Asus logo, with the same dull-red light. Inside, the design shows more of the notebook’s gaming DNA with angular graphics on the chassis and a red backlit keyboard.
The display on the TUF Gaming FX504 measures in at 15.6-inches and offers 1080p resolution at 120Hz and a 3ms gray-to-gray response time. Asus boasts of 130% sRGB coverage and in our first look at the laptop, the display seemed quite vibrant with decent viewing angles.
The notebook will be available in two configurations, one with an 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor and the other with an i5 processor. The i7 variant comes with an Nvidia GTX 1050Ti, while the i5 variant has an Nvidia GTX 1050. We played around with the higher-end variant and the performance was exactly what you’d expect from a notebook of this caliber.
