Although we didn't review this particular Asus gaming laptop, in our Asus TUF FX504 review, we found its affordable price point, gaming performance, and solid audio most impressive. 

The Asus TUF FX505DY and TUF FX504 are from the same series so design-wise, they look nearly identical. What sets them apart (phyiscally) is the reflective Asus logo on TUF FX505's lid. Both models fall in the budget gaming laptop category, however, they're renown for delivering solid performance and sound. 

With its Ryzen 5 processor and RX560X GPU power, the Asus TUF FX505Dy is sure to handle even the most demanding gaming applications without a hitch.
