ASUS TUF Gaming A18 laptop

The ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808UH-RS74-HID8 is an 18 inch Windows 11 Home laptop built for gaming and heavy multitasking. It pairs an AMD Ryzen 7 260 processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card and 32 GB of DDR5 memory. A 4 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD provides fast storage capacity.

Sustained load behavior

Gelid GC Extreme thermal interface material is applied to the CPU and GPU to improve heat transfer during extended sessions. The 16 core Ryzen 7 260 runs at a 3.8 GHz base clock with a 5.1 GHz max turbo frequency across 16 MB of L3 cache. The RTX 5050 carries 8 GB of GDDR7 video memory for graphics workloads.

Installation and common issues

The system arrives with the operating system, drivers and BIOS already updated and stress tested by the builder. Memory and storage upgrades were installed before shipment so no user assembly is required. The 144 Hz IPS level display is inspected for abnormalities prior to delivery.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the RTX 5050 get during long sessions?

HIDevolution applies Gelid GC Extreme thermal compound on the CPU and GPU to lower temperatures under sustained load.

Does the 32 GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory need any extra modules to run dual channel?

The 32 GB kit is already configured as 2 x 16 GB for dual-channel operation out of the box.

Will my existing PCIe 3.0 NVMe drives work in the spare M.2 slots?

The two installed 2 TB drives use PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe; any additional M.2 NVMe SSD will operate at its rated generation.
