It's official: from what we've seen so far, AMD's Ryzen 4000 series of mobile APUs are a hit here in the HotHardware labs. It started with the svelte ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 gaming notebook, which impressed us with excellent performance at a reasonable price point, all packed into a lightweight 2.7-pound 14" chassis. After that came the Dell G5 15 SE, which brought together Ryzen and Radeon in an exclusive (for now) combination with similarly excellent performance and an even lower, more entry-level starting price. Talk about a strong showing for AMD yet again, with both Ryzen 4000 and Radeon RX mobile technology as well. Ryzen and Radeon are on a roll.

The Dell G5 15 SE in particular left us pretty stoked, as our test unit rang in at just $1,200, and if you want to step down the ladder a bit with the Ryzen 5 4600H, those gaming notebooks can be had for less than $900. The value here is excellent, and of course Dell isn't the only manufacturer with a budget-friendly, AMD-powered gaming laptop on offer these days. ASUS's TUF Gaming A15 was right around the corner with the same Ryzen 4000 processors backed by NVIDIA's Turing-based GeForce RTX graphics chips. Today we're going to take a closer look at the top of the A15 lineup which bears the model number TUF506IV.
