ASUS TUF A15 FA506 - 54 Games Tested compilation (AMD Ryzen 7 4800H, GTX 1660 Ti)

We have recently reviewed the TUF A15 FA506 notebook, and our benchmarks revealed a capable machine with a competitive price. However, benchmarks are one thing, while actual gaming is an entirely different beast.

Therefore, the next step was to put this gaming notebook to the real test! Our tests cover no less than 54 different games, from crowd-pleasers such as COD: Warzone, Fortnite, Destiny 2 and League of Legends to recent releases such as Valorant or Gears: Tactics. If you are interested in a particular title, you can find each test on our channel.

With the process now finished, we can easily conclude that the ASUS TUF A15 FA506IU is indeed a solid gaming machine, gaining over 60 fps in most AAA games. While we did encounter small issues along the way and a bit of overheating, the AMD CPU and Nvidia GPU combination delivered a pleasant and streamlined experience overall.

Frame rate might not be the one that you experience since we are recording directly on the machine and not capture it separately, so you might experience a 3-5 fps improvement.
