Asus Zenbook Pro UX550 Unboxing and Review HD

Unboxing of the ASUS Zenbook Pro UX550VE i7-7700HQ GTX 1050 TI 16GB RAM 512GB SSD I was looking for something to replace my Alienware R2 13, something with enough power to light game on the road but portable enough. I did consider Dell XPS 15 and Lenovo YOGA 720 when i made this purchase. Gigabyte AERO 15 is not available here so this was the best option after that. At 1.8kg this is probably the best alternative to the Macbook pro for those that must use Windows as a working environment. Strong points: * better GPU than Dell XPS 15 * can be opened using one hand * no thermal throttling as far as i can see Weak points: - there is a small coil whine i think, need to investigate this more - no 4k support on hdmi - ram soldered onto the motherboard benchmarks : time spy https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/21966060 3d mark vantage (i know it is old but i have used it on all my machines for over 9 years now :) ) https://www.3dmark.com/3dmv/5641341 for comparison : Alienware R2 13 http://www.3dmark.com/3dmv/5520355 Lenovo Y720 http://www.3dmark.com/3dmv/5617459
