ASUS VivoBook S712JA-WH54 17.3" i5-1035G1 12GB 256GB+2TB laptop

VivoBook 17.3-inch FHD IPS laptop

This 17.3-inch laptop pairs a four-core Intel Core i5-1035G1 processor with 12GB of DDR4 memory and a dual-drive layout of 256GB PCIe NVMe SSD plus 2TB HDD. It targets students and office workers who need a large screen for multitasking and plenty of local storage for documents and media. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics handles everyday visuals and video playback without a discrete GPU. Windows 11 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed.

Sustained workload behaviour

Under continuous load the i5-1035G1 can reach a turbo frequency of 3.6 GHz, but the 45W power supply and integrated graphics mean clock speeds will settle lower during long compiles or heavy spreadsheet recalculations. The 12GB memory configuration of 4GB soldered plus an 8GB SO-DIMM runs in single-channel mode, which limits bandwidth for memory-intensive tasks. Thermal throttling will appear before the chassis reaches its maximum surface temperature.

Thermals noise and power

The 45W adapter and 47 Whr three-cell battery keep power draw modest, so fan noise stays low during typical office use and web browsing. The silver chassis dissipates heat across its 16.00 by 10.06 by 0.62 inch frame, keeping palm-rest temperatures comfortable for extended sessions. Battery life varies with screen brightness and workload but the capacity is sized for light all-day use rather than heavy compute away from mains power.
