Is the GTX 1050 Ti enough for modern games?

It handles esports titles and older AAA games at 1080p on medium settings. Newer AAA games need low settings and often still run below 60 fps.

Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?

Yes. The GL753V has accessible memory slots and a 2.5-inch drive bay plus M.2, so RAM and storage can be expanded.

How heavy is it to carry?

It is a desktop replacement at roughly 3 kg, so it is not a laptop for daily commuting.

Does it have a backlit keyboard?

Yes, the keyboard is backlit and includes a full number pad.

Is the 17.3-inch screen good for gaming?

The 1080p panel is large and bright enough for games and video. It is a standard 60 Hz panel, not a high-refresh display.

What comes in the box?

The laptop, power adapter and documentation. A mouse and headset are not included.

Our take on the ASUS ROG Strix GL753V Gaming Laptop 17.3" FHD

The ROG Strix GL753V is a 17.3-inch gaming laptop from ASUS's 2017 Strix line, built around an Intel Core i7 quad-core CPU, an NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti GPU, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB drive. Its big screen, full keyboard with backlight and sturdy chassis suit gamers who want a desktop replacement that stays put. Against slimmer 15-inch rivals it is heavy and bulky, and the GTX 1050 Ti is entry-level by later standards, but it runs esports titles and older AAA games well at 1080p. Owners like the screen size and cooling headroom; reviewers note the plastic build, average battery life and loud fans under load.
