The 12th generation 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5-12500H processor powers games and applications with four Performance cores with a 4.5 GHz Max Turbo speed while the eight Efficiency cores handle background tasks.

The dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card is designed to deliver high frame rates and advanced features such as real-time ray tracing, artificial intelligence, and more to enhance your entertainment and content-creation experiences.

An integrated MUX switch automatically routes frames directly from the dedicated GPU to the display, which can improve performance by 5 to 10% compared to systems without a MUX switch. Dynamically switching to the processor's integrated GPU helps to preserve battery life.

The 15.6" display features a Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution and a 144 Hz refresh rate. With Adaptive-Sync technology, the display's refresh rate synchronizes with the GPU's output to reduce lag, minimize stuttering, and eliminate screen tearing for smooth gameplay.

Thunderbolt 4 is a hardware interface that utilizes the reversible USB-C connector and features a maximum throughput of 40 Gb/s when used with compatible devices. The connector also transmits data via USB4 at up to 20 Gb/s, and dual-bandwidth DisplayPort allows you to connect either one 8K monitor or up to two 4K displays simultaneously. Additionally, you can daisy chain up to six devices from a single port.

In addition to having a Thunderbolt 4 port, this laptop is equipped with a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port alongside two 5 Gb/s USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports. The HDMI 2.1 port allows you to add a second display for enhanced multitasking and an extended view.

Dolby Atmos support enhances games and movies with spatial audio. Two-way noise cancellation helps to ensure that you're heard and can clearly hear others while video chatting with the 720p HD webcam. Plug a headset into the 3.54mm audio jack for added privacy.

Inside the slim chassis are two 84-blade Arc Flow fans that deliver efficient airflow while the five copper heat pipes quickly draw heat away from critical components.

The responsive mini-LED RGB backlit keyboard includes WASD key accents to give you a visual shortcut while you game. Overstroke technology triggers higher in each keystroke for faster responsiveness and control. Additionally, this laptop features a large touchpad with four different built-in status indicators so that you can monitor your system at a glance.

In order to earn the TUF Gaming name, this laptop must survive a rigorous battery of MIL-STD-810H tests. Test laptops are exposed to drops, vibration, humidity, and extreme temperatures to ensure reliability. Dependable in harsh conditions, the F15 is more than capable of withstanding the accidental bumps and knocks of everyday life.

Microsoft simplified the design and user experience with Windows 11. It has a modern, clean design with a new Start Menu position. Snap Layouts, Groups, and Desktops allow you to multitask with ease. Microsoft has also integrated some of their apps, such as Microsoft Teams. The redesigned Microsoft Store makes it easier to look for supported apps.
