Asus ZenBook Pro UX550VD [UX550VD-BN071T] (90NB0ET2-M00930)

Modern technology does not stand still, and this model is a clear embodiment of that thesis. A high-performance quad-core processor with a frequency of up to 3.8 GHz in a sleek metal case weighing 1800 grams? Yes, please! The performance of this laptop is very solid. I occasionally review models and medium-complexity assemblies in SolidWorks at home, and I can confidently say it performs on par with my work desktop equipped with an i5-3570, which is a pretty fast desktop processor. The pre-installed 16GB of RAM is sufficient for any home and work tasks. I have never even come close to reaching its limit. Instead of a hard drive, there is a 512GB SSD, which significantly speeds up the loading of the pre-installed operating system and applications. A few words must be said about the graphics card. I was contemplating whether I needed it, but since playing World of Warships (WoWs) on integrated graphics is impossible, I decided to go for it. The GeForce GTX 1050 with 4GB of dedicated memory is frankly great. WoWs runs almost at maximum settings, and in this quality, I saw the game in a new light (previously played on a desktop with medium graphic settings on a GeForce GTX 650 Ti). In general, the money was well spent, and the overall impression is pleasant.
