TUF Gaming FX505GT

Unbounded Design, Unrivaled Toughness

ASUS TUF Gaming FX505 will change the way you look at gaming laptops. Featuring an IPS-level NanoEdge display with refresh rate up to 144Hz, and armed with the latest 9th Gen Intel® Core™ processor and NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 graphics, it delivers high-performance gaming at an affordable price. It’s also tested and certified to military-grade MIL-STD-810G standards, so you’re guaranteed toughness and durability that’s second to none.

NANOEDGE DISPLAY

EXTREME IMMERSION ON AN ULTRAFAST DISPLAY

The new NanoEdge design has an even thinner 6.5mm bezel for extreme immersion in a much more compact package. With a refresh rate up to 144Hz, the IPS-level panel doubles the frames pumped out by normal displays and lets you experience true triple-digit FPS. Movement and animation are much smoother, and wide viewing angles keep the picture from washing out when more people gather around for split-screen gaming, watching videos, and working on projects.

TOUGHER THAN STANDARD

Infused with the spirit of The Ultimate Force (TUF), FX505 passes a series of rigorous MIL-STD-810G tests, successfully surviving varying conditions including solar radiation exposure, high altitude, and temperature extremes. It's certified to endure day-to-day use, from accidental knocks to sudden drops on a desk. Durable and stable, FX505 has been pushed to the limit to ensure only the very best for gamers.

*These tests are held in strict environmental conditions and under the supervision of quality test engineers. Product testing without proper controls or guidance may damage the product, and in some instances, create situations where there is significant risk of injury, disability, or death.

EXTREMELY ROBUST

Physical shock tests ensure every TUF Gaming laptop resists damage from unexpected drops, knocks, and bumps during shipment and daily use. The reinforced chassis can withstand a force that’s double the normal ASUS standard quality test. In addition, extensive vibration testing ensures all interior parts remain attached and maintain integrity.

WITHSTANDS ENVIRONMENTAL EXTREMES

ASUS engineers amped up environmental testing, subjecting each TUF Gaming laptop to extreme temperatures and humidity cycles, as well as high altitude testing to replicate inflight use or transport via air freight. Solar radiation testing ensures the laptop won’t degrade even after prolonged to direct sunlight.

Overstroke technology provides each key with 1.8mm travel distance for improved responsiveness. The keys are calibrated to require just 62 gram-force (gf) for activation, and feature an extended overstroke distance for more comfortable typing.

THERMAL

HYPERCOOL TECHNOLOGY IMPROVES DURABILITY

ASUS-exclusive Intelligent Cooling technology comprises of the Anti-Dust Cooling (ADC) system and HyperFan to ensure exceptional cooling during gaming marathons. Furthermore, cooling is also improved by the patented trapezoid-cut lid and intelligent parallel fan placement.

ANTI-DUST TUNNELS

The ADC system has an exclusive internal design that forces dust particles and dirt to exit the chassis through two anti-dust tunnels located at the edges of the fans. This prevents the thermal fins from becoming caked in grime, preserving performance in the long run to improve both system longevity and reliability.

HyperFan

The system automatically adjusts fan speeds according to CPU and GPU temperatures. Switch between Turbo, Balanced, and Silent modes to suit the situation at hand. Turbo mode is the most aggressive setting, providing the highest fan speeds and frequencies to fully exploit the power of FX505. Balanced mode optimises performance and cooling to lower noise levels under 45dB for gaming, while Silent mode further curbs fan noise and is perfect for surfing the net, getting work done, or watching a movie.

OPTIMISED AIRFLOW

Every part of FX505 serves to improve system stability and efficiency. The dual fans are symmetrically placed to maximise airflow through the system. They pump warm air out the back, where the patented trapezoid-cut lid avoids interference with the exhaust vents, increasing thermal efficiency by up to 25% over traditional designs.

*The standard ASUS test environment for battery life is as follows: Windows operating system, display module with 150 nits of brightness, lighting off, and other application settings.

Video Playback: Testing is done with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth off, Windows Power Plan set to Balanced, Taskbar Power Mode set to Battery Saver,  system volume at 67%, and video at full screen, 1080p resolution.

Web Browsing:Testing is done with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, Windows Power Plan set to Balanced, Taskbar Power Mode set to Better Battery, and using the Weblooper Top50 website in Google Chrome to play the video with a refresh time of 10 seconds.

*Factors that affect battery life include laptop configuration, power settings, and the way it is used. Battery capacity fades with its cycle count and age.

*Quick-charging times apply when using the proper ASUS/ROG adapter included alongside the select model and the system is powered off (via the "shut down" command). In compatible scenarioses, batteries can be recharged to 50% within 30 minutes under the optimal temperature range of 20-45 degrees Celsius. Charging times may vary +/- 10% due to system tolerance.

The testing regime includes the requirements of both military-grade standards and ASUS quality tests, and varies depending on device. MIL-STD-810 testing is conducted on selected ASUS products only. Note that the MIL-STD-810 testing helps to ensure the quality of ASUS products but does not indicate a particular fitness for military use. The test is performed under laboratory conditions. Any damage caused by attempts to replicate these test conditions would be considered accidental, and would not be covered by the standard ASUS warranty. Additional coverage is available with ASUS Premium Care.
