multitasking to multimedia rendering run fast and smooth.
High-performance RAM lets you switch between gaming, streaming,
and web-browsing seamlessly. Keep focused and keep active with no
slowdowns in sight.
Experience Ultrafast Networking
Ultrafast Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) lets you game reliably at LAN speeds
wherever compatible connections are available. Wi-Fi 6 boosts
network speed and efficiency, providing a better internet
connection in crowded spaces. Furthermore, with Wi-Fi 6’s TWT
mechanism and WPA3 security standard, you can enjoy gaming with
extended device battery life and better wireless security.
Heat Dissipation
Efficient heat redistribution enables faster dissipation,
minimizing thermal throttling. The TUF Gaming A17’s tailored
system of four heatpipes and three heatsinks absorbs warmth from
the CPU and GPU transfers it away. An extended heat spreader on
the CPU further helps keep the processor at optimum temperatures
for reliable performance, even under serious stress.
Self-Cleaning Cooling 2.0
Two anti-dust tunnels located at the edges of the fans catch
incoming dust and dirt particles and channel them back out of the
chassis. An updated design shortens the tunnels to create more
space for airflow, increasing fan performance up to 15% over the
previous generation. These measures improve overall system
stability by preventing build-up that can compromise the
performance of internal cooling components. Self-cleaning Cooling
2.0 ensures long-term system reliability that truly lives up to
the TUF name.
83-Blade lcp Fans
Maximize your airflow with two 83-Blade fans. Carefully shaped
intake shrouds use curved edges and raised guides to help the fans
draw in more air. Once the air’s inside, it’s blasted toward the
heatsinks by 83 0.25mm blades that are 55% thinner than
conventional designs, yet strong enough to spin at high RPMs.
These powerful fans amplify airflow up to 10% to keep your system
cool.
With 0dB Technology, the fans switch off completely when CPU and GPU temperatures are below 60°C in the Silent operating mode. This makes cooling truly silent under light workloads. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
With 0dB Technology, the fans switch off completely when CPU and GPU temperatures are below 60°C in the Silent operating mode. This makes cooling truly silent under light workloads. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
Scenario Profiles
Scenario Profiles automatically change operating modes to optimize
performance and acoustics for different games and applications.
Turbo mode uses the highest fan speed and clocks to sustain
maximum speed, Performance mode adjusts the clocks and cooling to
lower noise levels for gaming, and Silent mode runs even quieter
for lighter work and entertainment. You can customize Scenario
Profiles to seamlessly switch modes based on your preferences, or
use a keyboard shortcut to change modes manually.
