  • The Asus Strix Scar 16 with RTX 4090 and i9-13980HX is an absolute monster machine, especially for its 5.5 lb weight. But how well does it perform? Can it match the larger Scar 18 in a smaller form factor? We'll be testing the display, unboxing it, removing the bottom, internal analysis, benchmarking the Scar 16 with Timespy and Cinebench R23, and then we'll play a bunch of games too!

    These reviews have been so helpful! I decided on the Razer 18 based on your comparisons/spreadsheet/reviews, and I can't wait to get it.

      I would be tempted to for the new Blades down the line due to form factor/durability. However, My current blade that is about 1.5 years of use is getting keyboard degradation in the LED's which is bloody annoying. Apparantly its a common issue where the LED's die.
      Unfortunately, not gonna bother with getting it fixed being such a suerflouos feature overall, but will definitely be in the back of my mind when shopping for a new laptop.

I’ve sent it in for repair 3 times now and each time they make it worse. Twice they installed a 13950 board instead of the 13980. Last time they did not paste or reassemble it properly so the 13980 stays at 0.40 GHz after about a minute of use. You have to reboot then you have another minute of 3.5 ghz before it goes back to 0.40 GHz. The laptop is great but they do not stand behind it if something goes wrong. I STRONGLY consider you to rethink Razer. Late May and I still have nothing and they have gone silent on me the past 3 weeks. They just say we are working on your case and leave me with no laptop.

    Thank you very much for your work.
    I was thinking of buying this laptop, but I have read several complaints from users, as well as reviews, that they have an excessive "Coil whine" problem, a very annoying electronic noise, I don't know if it's from the processor, graphics, coil,... ..
    Could you comment if you noticed anything during the analysis?
    Before buying, I want to make sure, because although it is a noise that can exist in equipment with this power, it seems that this year is too annoying.
    Many thanks for everything.

I'm not sure why they can't do the mini LED in the 18" G18 because even though it increases the cost it is priced very affordably at $2499 in the US. Of course it is more costlier in my country but I can't expect it to go above $2800

Might be worth redoing or getting warranty support. 28,000 is not a terrible score, but yeah, I would expect more. Is the power limit reaching the same 145W and maintaining there?

      I ordered the rog strix scar 16, rtx 4080 version, I heard the coil whine is bad as well on that version. How bad is it? I also heard you can semi fix it with a bios update, I know this is few months later and maybe the issue might be resolved when I get mine, but I do not know. What are your thoughts or is this on just the other versions. If I need to do the bios update, how do I do it? I’m not familiar when it comes to bios stuff.

    Hy. How this top model 13980hx 4090 scar 16 miniled compared to top model razer blade 16 13950hx 4090 mini led with full performance twerking repasting if needed, all the undervolt, overclock power limit idk, tweaking to get the best performance? I heard that razer only pushes CPU up to 55w instead of 65 and also on performance much lower but the gpu on both is the full 175w, but still somehow the Asus performs better in only gu tests? How it is now than? What is the real world difference with all the tweaking to the max to get the best results on both? Also, what is the the score difference on batter and 100w pd USBC charging between the 2? And battery life with same brightness and refresh rate with native res 4k 120 on razer and QHD 120 on Asus if completely unplugged? Please help in every detail. Can't decide. Thanks in advance.
    Also the other laptop i am thinking is the x16 with max specs and 4090 egpu, and also the 14.5 inch new yoga pro 9i with 13905h and rtx 4070 on 140w usb-c charging. I'm also interested to find out the difference in x16 280w PSU vs 330w 4090 egpu vs 100wc charging vs battery vs Lenovo on battery, performance and battery life on all, and noise levels on manual max settings. Thanks in advance.

      If everything is tweaked and undervolted, the Scar 16 is definitely faster in cpu and gpu. Check my latest scar 16 undervolting and overclocking guide. It shows the bios update with full undervolting performance crushing it

    • @KTamas27
      @KTamas27 Před rokem

      ​​@@GizmoSlipTechThank you very much. But how much? Is the important. Course I other reviewers test saw razer only pulls 150w from gpu, and even the 145w M16 4090 can outrun it, ok though that was the 4090 blade with i9 but still, it tuned at 150w. Or they didn't use turbo, and name that the blade is faster because at 150w it is quite than the M16 at 145w full power manual. But still in test that blade 16 13950hx 4090 was outperformed by 13900h 4090 M16 in evry single CPU based tests with much less cores. How is it?

    • @KTamas27
      @KTamas27 Před rokem

      ​@@GizmoSlipTech Also another deciding factor for me is how fast, can or could I transfer files from example a video editing project, is it worth it if i will have a full overclocked 13900ks 4090 setup at home to get the scar 16 and the Lenovo 16.3 inch folding tablet for drawing purposes, and as a media consuming decide and a second display, how would it work for the scar 16, is there now a latency free option with cable or without? How fast can i transfer a project that is quarter or 3 quarter ready either stqrted, or almost finished just needs a bit tweaking and the exporting to the 13900ks desktop PC, from any of these thunderbolt equipped devices? I will also have a 10gb thunderbolt 4 m.2 PCIe 4 Nash at home and wifi 6e router. Is it worth all the flafth from 13980hx for example 33.3k cinebench points to 41.3k cinebench point on the 13900ks to copy paste always or a lot of the time either my video projects or 3d design projects to the PC from any of these 5 (scar 16 , blade 16 , M16, x16 or yoga 9i) performance laptops to the desktop?

    Really stuck between the two. Love the blade 16 4090 build but why on earth did they give you either a 4k or 1080p. Awful choice.
    Love the Asus scar 16 4090, perfect screen, mini led with a 1440p display. But, that nasty cheap looking plastics that wraps around the machine, why Asus why.
