    • Knowing what devices to invest your hard-earned money in is an essential skill in the 21st century, and the fact that the market is over-saturated with millions of options doesn’t help either.

    It can even be hard to choose a product if you decide you’re interested in only one company out of hundreds.

    ASUS has a long-lasting history of producing quality computers that resist the test of time, but that doesn’t imply that it would make it any easier to choose from their wide range of products.

    Comparing all the components like CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage can be tricky and time-consuming, and for this reason, we tasked our experienced team of testers to do this for you.

    If you would like to find out more about how Windows 11 compares to Windows 10 on every level, explore our guide on this topic.

    How we chose the best Windows 11 PCs from Asus?

    Our panel of expert testers has a combined experience of over 15 years of product testing, which includes hardware, and also a variety of software and devices.

    For them to help you make a decision when looking for a good ASUS PC that can run the new Windows 11 optimally, our testers had to first check the system specifications of a large number of products, and compare them directly to the officially released system requirements for Windows 11.

    As you can see from the graph presented above, our team of testers goes through a rigorous process of researching, shortlisting, comparing, and testing the products presented to you in this list.

    Below, you will find a more in-depth analysis of all the elements considered in the testing and research phases of this process.

    Tip Editor’s tip:

    Choosing the best ASUS PC’s, as in the case of other similar lists, will be carried out considering a wide set of elements, but most importantly:

    ➡ Processor
    ➡ GPU
    ➡ Rapid access memory (RAM)
    ➡ Storage space
    ➡ Design and utilizability

    The elements mentioned above are the most important factors that our team of experts has considered while creating this list, but that doesn’t mean that other aspects have not been included as well.

    Let’s discuss the list presented above to understand why all these elements are important when creating a thorough list, or while choosing how to invest your money.

    Processor

    The processor, also known as the CPU is the heart of your PC, making sure that all the tasks are optimally performed, from the background elements to the most complex games and software usage.

    Having a good processor not only will make your PC work faster, but it will also ensure that no matter what software you’re using, and no matter how many apps you’re running at the same time, your experience will be smooth.

    As you already know, not all processors are built the same, and if you’re not a very technical person, then choosing a setup with a good CPU can be intimidating.

    This principle applies even to users who know how to compare pieces of hardware, but other elements like the optimal CPU cooling levels and processor frequency are also important factors.

    As you can see from the graph above, normal temperatures can range from anywhere between 40 degrees Celsius to 65 degrees, and this is the range in which your CPU can work at full speed without any issues.

    If your hardware ends up recording some of the maximum temperatures mentioned above, then not only the CPU will underperform, but will probably cause long-term damage to the system.

    GPU

    The GPU (graphics processing unit), or video card, enables you to experience the full-fledged range of graphics both for your games, your app usage, and even the quality at which you can watch videos.

    If you’re interested in gaming and want to be able to run the latest game releases, then choosing a system with a powerful GPU will come a long way. In case you’d like to explore games, but are not so inclined to use the highest graphics settings available, then a medium-range GPU will do the trick without any problems.

    A medium-range GPU will also give you enough power to run image and video rendering software, and have access to normal utilities like HD videos, and even 3D rendering software in some cases.

    A good GPU will ensure that you will be set for the following years in all the categories mentioned above, and our list includes a variety of options to choose from.

    RAM

    The Rapid Access Memory (RAM) enables your device to run multiple applications and features at the same time. As you might expect, the more RAM the better.

    This applies especially if you’re planning on playing games or running complex 3D rendering software, but also helps in day-to-day tasks like browsing the internet while listening to your favorite podcast.

    As Windows 11 requires your system to have at least 4GB RAM installed, all the choices found in this list will go above that value.

    A good RAM amount for powerful gaming will be anywhere between 16 to 32 GB RAM, while an average amount would range from 8 to 16.

    Storage space

    The amount of storage space you have on your device will determine how much data you will be able to store on your PC.

    Not all storage elements are the same, some of the most common being either an HDD (hard disk drive) or an SSD (solid-state drive). Both of these options do the same thing – enable you to store and access data, but they don’t do it in the same way.

    Even though an HDD is required at the minimum for you to store your OS and other personal data and files, an SSD provides you with all these elements at a higher reading and writing speed, thus improving your system’s efficiency considerably.

    As you can observe in the graph above, there are quite a few differences between these two types of storage, but even SSDs come in two main categories:

    Even the speeds between these two types range a lot, with the NVMe SSD reaching speeds of 3,5 GB/s, while the SATA version clocks in at about 0.5 GB/s.

    If you’re interested in having the fastest write/read speeds for your PC, then choosing a PC with an NVMe SSD is the way to go. In case you want speed but not necessarily the highest available, then choosing a device that uses a SATA SSD is a good option.

    Of course, if you’re not that interested in this topic, and simply want a good PC that can store data while also saving some money, going with an HDD is a good option.

    Design and utiizability

    The design of your ASUS PC might not seem that important, but some elements can make a huge difference.

    A principle that applies both when it comes to laptops and desktop PCs, is that the design not only improves the aesthetics of your device but can also make a huge difference when it comes to functionality and even performance.

    Considering all these elements when choosing a good Windows 11 ASUS PC will hugely impact your future, so we made sure to take them into account when creating this thorough list.

    The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU with 6GB GDDR6 VRAM matches the powerful CPU perfectly, offering you an immersive gaming experience, and ensuring good FPS levels across the board.

    To support the immersive experience mentioned above, this device is equipped with a 16-inches 165Hz IPS display with an incredible 3ms latency. Even more, the 2560 x 1600 resolution and the Anti-Glare feature round this device up, making it a very good choice for all gamers.
