About this deal

Credit subject to status, UK residents only, FIVE TECH LIMITED acts as a broker and offers finance from PayPal Credit. During our Handbrake test, the Gaming F15 was the fastest to transcode a 4K video to 1080p, at 4 minutes and 49 seconds. Those specs sound solid for gaming, but you'll need to pay more money if you want the best-looking display. It’s made from plastic rather than anything from the metallic end of the periodic table and the display is a bit drab but its AMD Ryzen 5 CPU and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 GPU make it a solid performer.

The GPU has 6 GB of GDDR6 and a max graphics power of 140W, which explains how the Gaming F15 blows its competition out of the water when it comes to strong 1080p gaming. Meanwhile, the MSI Pulse GL66 (with an RTX 3060) achieved 68 fps, followed by the Alienware x14 R1 (RTX 3060), which got 62 fps, and the Acer Nitro 5’s (RTX 3050) 52 fps. Slim chassis leave little room for cooling, so we enhance every aspect of the Arc Flow Fans to maximize airflow. That’s largely down to the TUF F15’s GPU running at a higher total graphics power (TGP) than is generally the case in cheaper or slimmer gaming laptops – 140W vs the more usual 80W, 85W or 90W in the case of the Alienware x14. Two speakers with four cut-outs are loud and immersive, letting you enjoy the full depth of DTS:X™ Ultra high-fidelity audio.g. Bridgewater, down south to Devon, Plymouth and Cornwall are most likely to be delivered on a Friday. Audio settings can even be customised on a per-app basis, filtering specific apps like voice chat so you can have crystal clear in-game communications without touching game audio.

Five heatpipes draw warmth away from the CPU, GPU, VRM and VRAM and dissipate it quickly through four heatsinks and fan outlets, keeping component temperatures at optimum levels. Although the laptop had little to no competition on the gaming front, competing laptops gave the Gaming F15 more of a challenge during productivity tests. If you have a standalone microphone that uses a TRS connector (with only two lines on the plug), you will need a TRS to TRRS adapter. On the Shadow of the Tomb Raider benchmark (1080p, highest settings), the Gaming F15 churned out 74 fps. Its extensive customization options let you personalize aesthetic effects, fine-tune game profiles, and adjust audio settings to fit your preferences.It is fully functional and has been professionally refurbished, tested, inspected and cleaned to excellent condition by qualified sellers. Dependable even in the harshest conditions, the Dash F15 is more than capable of withstanding accidental bumps and knocks on the move. Running demanding games at 1,920 x 1,080 is clearly where the TUF F15 is most comfortable because the RTX 3060 can start to run out of VRAM at high video detail settings and QHD resolutions.

When I played Control (high settings, 1080p), I turned RTX settings to high and used DLSS to downscale the resolution to 720p. Take your must-play titles on the go with the up to 1TB PCIe® drive, or add a second drive via the open M.

I fired up the Disney Plus app to watch the penultimate episode of Moon Knight and was impressed by the sharp image and its color accuracy. Those are best avoided because the runtime from the larger battery was pretty poor, lasting a mere 6hrs 20mins in our video rundown test.
