[Mk782001]

Hey guys,
I wanted to ask if this ASUS TUF FX505DY-BQ002T has m.2 SSD Slot that I can upgrade the Storage with a m.2 SSD. It's really cheap right now I am thinking of buying it.

Yes. it does.

Most of the laptops these days have M.2 slot.

Even the cheapest gaming laptop Acer Nitro-5 supports M.2 NVMe drives.

but the Asus FX505DY with AMD R5 and RX560X is known to have screen flickering issue at low brightness.

You instead get the Asus FX505 with GTX 1050. It is better and comes with multiple configurations like i5/4 GB 1050/1 TB HDD or R5/3 GB 1050/ 1 TB /256 GB+1 TB

But that's the thing this laptop is like 250$/18000 Rupees cheaper right now than the one you mentioned

It's cheaper for a reason.

Both it's cpu and gpu are from AMD, that are underpowered and tend to heat more.

Personally, i've had a bad experience with AMD. So, i don't recommend it.
