Own two Asus laptops. Oldest one is 3 years old. Never given me a problem.
Steer clear of anything with the names Lenovo, HP, Dell, Gateway and MSI on them. I cannot tell you how many of these I’ve fixed (physical repairs, HDD’s and undoing crapware installed on them for friends and family.) If you gave me one of these I’d just pitch it in the garbage for all they’re worth. Crappy build quality.

Thank you for info.
Asus vote here. I have had several of their products over the years with no grief. I currently have one of their high end video cards installed and abuse it often. Other than the need for feeding it human spleen as an offering occasionally, it has been as solid as their other stuff for me.
