Beloved by bargain buyers everywhere, the Asus TUF A15 comes from excellent stock. These rigs are designed to pack the latest components into a much lower price tag than you'll see in the rest of the market - by compromising on build materials and fancy extra features. No, you're not getting the top versions of these cards, and their maximum power is often hampered by the cheaper designs of the laptops themselves. But if you're after a budget-minded rig that can still see you through the latest games at high framerates you're onto a winner here.
With prices starting at $1,199 / £1,049 (and often dropping well below that with sales), these rigs can steer you well away from the $3K price tags I'm often staring down during testing. I took the newest 2023 Asus TUF A15 out for a spin to see just what that cash can get you these days, and where it all sits among the best gaming laptops on the market.
