Both FX505DY and FX705DY are claimed to meet military-grade MIL-STD-810G standards for toughness. Asus says that the laptops have undergone strenuous testing ensuring that they can withstand extreme environments, ambient vibration as well as accidental knocks. "Both models shrug off short drops to a desk, and FX505DY is certified to survive higher falls. The hexagonal design on the bottom of the laptops adds structural rigidity and deserves some of the credit for their toughness," Asus said.

TUF gaming laptops keyboards have 'HyperStrike' keyboard deck, which is basically a desktop-inspired layout with separated blocks of function keys and a full numeric keypad. In addition, there's a wider space bar, offset arrow keys, curved key caps, and highlighted WASD keys. The keyboard is backlit as well; while the with Red Matter versions of the laptops have red lights, the Gold Steel models feature customisable RGB lighting. The RGB colors and effects can be tweaked with the Armoury Crate utility, which unifies functions like lighting control, system monitoring, and configurable game profiles.

Hardware

Both the laptops have Ryzen 5 3550H processor. The chip has four cores and eight threads which are claimed to deliver "capable performance" for popular games and everyday work. To conserve power and give an extend battery life, the laptops utilise Vega-based integrated graphics that are said to provide seven hours of Full HD video playback on FX705DY and nearly six hours on FX505DY.

The TUF Gaming laptops are fitted with specially-designed thermal solution, the HyperCool technology, which keeps the CPU and GPU cool with independent fans and keep internal temperatures in check. Asus says that the fans help special anti-dust tunnels on the edges of the housing to catch and direct particles out of the laptop to prevent them from clogging up the cooling.
