I was thinking about purchasing a laptop that can handle gaming for at least four to five years. I want something with medium settings or even lower if it can maintain 30 frames per second. This one stood out to me.
ASUS ROG Strix G15 (2021) Advantage Edition Ryzen 9 Octa Core 5900HX - (16 GB/1 TB SSD/Windows 10 Home/12 GB Graphics/AMD Radeon RX 6800M) G513QY-HQ008TS Gaming Laptop (15.6 inch, Original Black, 2.50 kg, With MS Office)

Was this a suitable choice for the price I have in mind?
Can it last me four to five years of gaming at low settings with 30 fps?
Does the battery support streaming services like YouTube and Netflix well?
Is the manufacturer reliable?
My budget is based on this cost. I’m willing to spend more if needed.
Also, can it be upgraded to Windows 11?

Considering the PS5's use of liquid metal and AMD chip, it seems unlikely this is the main reason for laptop issues. Since it's a new product, I'd assume it supports Win 11 and TPM2. Win 10 remains functional until 2025, so the problem isn't severe.

There should be enough options for your needs. AMD advantage laptops must satisfy specific standards set by AMD to receive the label, which means I shouldn't have too many concerns. Asus is a well-known brand, but their support for customers could be limited. I own an older 2nd generation i5 Asus laptop, which I still use for capturing images from trail cameras. Over the past ten years, it hasn't caused any major problems, and I'm not at fault.

But the GPU isn't from Nvidia, should I be concerned? Because it includes DLSS.

Thank you,
Nvidia seems to perform better in DLSS and ray tracing. Do these features significantly impact gaming?
Some users on best buy are rating the Amd advantage edition laptop negatively because of liquid metal issues, with complaints that it fails within a week. Is this acceptable? Could this influence its long-term performance?
Additionally, does the Amd laptop support Windows 11 and does it include TPM 2?

I think you choose a great laptop! The brand is reliable, but it is not always possible to find parts for a laptop, this is the only drawback.
