It is hard to give a good rating without its price, but the specs are ok. With a 1080p screen you will usually be able to game at medium settings 60 fps with the 960m. Asus in general makes good quality laptops.

7.8 out of 10. The Russian judge may score it lower, though. 😉

Sorry I updated my post to include the price. Is it still good for what it's worth or are there better ones around for that price?

Lol can you give me reasons for your score?

It is a good deal. In general a next step would a laptop equipped with a GTX 970m, but that would about $300 usd more. You might get lucky on some special sale though and get one cheaper, but you will have to wait and see if you can find one. Buy a SSD for it and you're good to go!

I rate the laptop in my sig as an 8.6 out of 10. To me, relatively speaking, it makes the one you're considering a 7.8 out of 10. My last laptop was an ASUS, and it was very good. They make some very well built machines. But their customer/warranty service is usually notoriously bad.
