Asus Vivobook 17 X1704VA

The Asus Vivobook 17 family includes entry-level and mid-range laptops designed for users who need an affordable and functional computer for basic tasks: working with documents, studying, watching videos, or web surfing. These devices follow a minimalist approach to design and capabilities but offer sufficient flexibility in configuration choices. The lineup is based on Intel Raptor Lake hybrid processors, which, following the example of ARM processors, combine two types of cores (powerful and energy-efficient) to be utilized depending on the current load, thereby optimizing the device's performance level and battery life.

The most affordable modifications, Asus Vivobook 17 X1704VA with Core i3, handle office applications and light multitasking mode, laptops with Core i5 add performance for smoother multi-application use, and models with Core i7 are quite suitable for efficient handling of heavy applications like Pro Tools, DaVinci Resolve, Blender, and After Effects. The amount of RAM varies between 8 and 16 GB, and in all cases, the role of the system drive is played by M.2 NVMe SSDs with capacities ranging from 128 GB to 512 GB. Although the series does not include discrete graphics, Intel UHD/Iris Xe integrated graphics cores handle basic graphic tasks and high-resolution video playback. The display features a classic entry-level IPS matrix with Full HD resolution (1920x1080), a standard refresh rate of 60 Hz, limited coverage of 45% NTSC, and TÜV Rheinland certification.
