Discreet gaming notebook

The case of the Asus TUF Dash F15 is mostly made of plastic, only the lid is made of aluminum. This is emblazoned with the exact manufacturer’s logo, otherwise the notebook is somewhat invisible. There is no colorful bling bling, the keyboard is backlit in one color only. However, a look at the keyboard reveals that it’s a gaming laptop: the WASD keys are white and thus stand out from the other black keys. A number pad and touchpad are also available below the keys. Asus has installed a 15.6-inch matte IPS display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and a refresh rate of 144Hz in the TUF Dash F15. The core is Intel Core i7-12650H, a processor with ten cores and a frequency of 2.3 GHz. This is powered by an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070.
