Asus ROG Strix Scar II RTX2060 - Yay or Nay?

friehy — Fri, 01 Mar 2019 19:40:59 +0800

Alrighty, so... I'm currently in the market for a desktop replacement laptop for college - the Strix II from Asus looks to be the ticket.
Unfortunately I can't really seem to find any reviews on the specific RTX2060 edition I'm interested in...

So here's my question to anyone who has used Asus gaming laptops of a simliar model or better yet this exact model;
1. Does it overheat and thermal throttle badly? (Like worse than most other gaming laptops)
2. Is the battery life *seriously* abysmal? (Like 3 hours whatnot for websurfing I understand as it's a gaming laptop, but some websites state under standard load it gets like 50 minutes?)
3. Does this particular model have bad backlight bleed?
4. Is coil whine an issue?
5. Overrall I guess if its worth the buy right now at around RM6500?

Any and all opinions are appreciated, thanks!
