We’ll follow up with more technical/performance info once we get the review units in the next couple of weeks. This article is a preview of the 2022 TUF Gaming A15 (AMD) and F15 (Intel) lineups and a sum of my first impressions of the redesign, after spending a few days with a pre-production model. Nonetheless, I’m glad to see Asus redesigning these TUFs for 2022, they were in need of a revamp in order to stay competitive in this budget gaming niche where the bar has been raised very high by devices such as the Lenovo Legion 5 or the HP Omen 15.Īsus not just bumped the specs to the latest Intel Alder Lake/AMD Rembrandt platforms available to date with these 2022 TUF Gaming models, but they also made them smaller and lighter, improved the IO, inputs, and screen options, and also upped up the power of the GPUs and added a much needed MUX for uncompromised gaming performance. The 2020 and even the 2021 TUFs took a lot of heat for some of the decisions Asus made around their thermal designs and cooling capacities, and while I understand the complaints and have measured high internal temperatures under load in our reviews as well, I still found those notebooks to be fairly competitive in some markets, especially in the AMD variants with mid-tier 3050Ti/3060 graphics.
