@SaiyanGoku @omega44-xt found this asus model claiming to have 240Hz screen, is this really correct because even on amazon international I see similar models with 144Hz screen only.
From what I assume the new Omen laptops are going to be costly. I looked around for the spec list and apparently the base model is just not good for the price they are charging. Also HP provides one of the best on website customisation options (talking about screen and stuff) that you won't get on any of the seller websites. So if you are buying one from not the HP store, don't expect to get a good machine or something that you want.
There are two models that are currently available for this. One is 9th Gen Intel with the 240HZ display, the GWR one, and another is the 8th Gen Intel with 144HZ display, the GW one. So if you are willing to pay around 170k for this then yes you can get the 240HZ and truth be told, the price is reasonable, spec wise.
Yes but I don't see this/similar models on amazon US which is surprising because it is is highly unlikely that a laptop with superior screen/hardware has more availability in India than USA & hence the doubt.
Might be, but that is the case for this. Check out Best buy, they might have the 240HZ model.
Finally found the same model on amazon US, it is about 39% cheaper than Indian price.
I saw that in LTT/Dave2D/Austin Evans video. Felt meh to me. I'd rather have a screen with higher color accuracy than a led array on the back.
That I know but ideal situation would be such a screen with this led array on the back.
I would rather go with a plain back like the one Asus Tuf A15 is offering. Although the LED array looks cool on the G14 but thats that.
Is Asus sabotaging it's AMD laptops?Asus disappointed me. TUF series is supposed to be cheaper option to ROG series.
They tweeted starting price to be ~60k but launched at ~72k.
17.3" variant doesn't have 144Hz or RTX 2060 option.
It's like Asus is deliberately trying to downgrade the 4000 series APU's performance. For every AMD 4000 series laptops that Asus launched, they have messed up the Heat Exhaust big time and display panels are not worth mentioning and the fact that they soldered the Dual Channel RAM chips reducing the upgradability of the machine is just bad.
If Asus is like this then don't expect other manufactures to behave differently. At best you can hope for at least usual performance/design at higher prices.
First of all there are no OLED monitors. Second, no matter how good a laptop screen is it will never be able to match a dedicated monitor with same/superior panel type(unless price difference is huge).
Where are you finding OLED monitors in India?
To be honest this isn't such a good idea as in my experience pushing such poor thermal design laptops to do what they were meant to do(aka gaming) will most probably reduce their life by at least 1-2 years. Also that DIY spirit will certainly result in a void warranty & you do not want that for such a laptop.
I have seen those vents on the TUF A15, they are first of all not aligned to the exhaust and second the exhaust grills have very small opening for air to get in so if I try something in it will mean messing up the warranty big time. Also I am planning to wait a little more for more entries to come into the market, selecting from a bigger list is always better.
