And the winner is
After talking and seeing a lot of peoples opinions this was the computer of choice.
Hopefully it makes streaming and editing very easy. Sadly I do not have the proper space currently at my apartment for a nice desktop setup but hopefully in the future.
Again thank you guys for supporting me on Patreon! I hope to get the content rolling once I get this in the mail.
Also FMAB and ONE PIECE will be posted tonight. working with windows computer is weird for me since I am a strict mac user but I should have it up tonight.

Turns out this this was a piece of crap.
Congratulations, that laptop is sick!
Maybe you should stop getting so many husbando pillows, and then you'd have space for a desktop!
That laptop is more than enough you’ll love it
IMPORTANT - I don’t think this model has a webcam, so do make sure that you have other arrangements for streaming/web calls!! But great laptop, other than that and battery life.
Based on this link that someone else posted https://www.excaliberpc.com/700327/asus-rog-strix-scar-iii.html It does state it has an HD webcam in the specifications though I can't tell where it is located since the bezel seems quite slim. My guess is that it is located in one of the two small holes below the screen next to the name on the bezel. Update- Further review of the ASUS webpage for the laptop mentions an optional External Webcam in the specs. My feeling is that the websites showing it has a webcam are probably based on the fact that the Scar II had a bottom bezel webcam. So you're probably correct...other backup arrangements would probably have to be made since this does not appear to have one built-in.
I see money is not a problem for you 😆😁👍. If you game a lot then thats a good laptop for you. If you barely game and majority daily use with editing for youtube you dont need to spent that much on it.
This laptop is gonna be insanely fast, I have a similar laptop I use for professional editing work.
Get bigger apartment problem solved
Beast of a gaming laptop. Congrats.
JESUS THAT IS SUCH A BEAST LOL
is it a good gamin laptop? i am looking for one rn and i know shit baut it
I was in the same boat. I know nothing about computers so I asked a lot of people and a lot suggested this one for gaming
Very nice choice. I highly doubt you'll even need to consider a new desktop with that laptop configuration. That 240MHz monitor would be so much fun to play on, but yeah, it'll definitely make streaming and editing your videos a breeze. All this is making me want to go buy one now, but I think I'd stick with the Omen 17" for about $350 less with similar specs. I like the bigger screen and Thunderbolt port personally.
Wow this is a powerful rig! Hope it functions well!
🙏
I hope you get it soon
That's actually a pretty good buy, enjoy, also windows wins :P Mac just simply is limited, stuff is always released for windows first, then comes Mac unfortunately :/
Nice! 👌 You should check it out here, you get a bunch of free stuff in a bundle https://www.excaliberpc.com/700321/asus-rog-strix-scar-iii.html
ROG Strix is an amazing line of products. Super powerful, and is the brand I’m going to use for my desktop build
😄
Going all in, god damn. Not fan of Asus but good choice
Just buy another MacBook (looks better, portable and lives longer than a Windows gaming laptop)
Yeah but I also need a gaming laptop though for streams and macs can't stream that well.
Congrats!
