The ASUS TUF Dash F15 (2022) is a mid-line gaming laptop that typically comes with a 12th Gen Intel Core i7 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30-series graphics in a slim and durable case and can support DDR5 as well as comes with a Includes a hardware MUX Switch to switch between gaming and non-gaming graphics. This version was released in 2022 and phased out in 2023 when the newer models came out. ASUS does not publicly report unit sales for individual laptops but is considered one of ASUS' highest selling mainstream gaming portfolios globally.

The target demographic as mainly budget-conscious gamers, students, and creative professionals, which all are kept in mind with a minimalist design, steering away from the gaming laptop look. The prices started at $999 USD upon release depending on selections for CPU, GPU, and regional configuration. This laptop was highly acclaimed at launch and won the 2022 CES Innovation Award because of its ability to pack such powerful parts into a 19.95 mm chassis, with consumer praise accompaniment for clean design. This did not come without complaints, however, with some users drawing concern to the poor color accuracy and dimmer display (around 250-300 nits), as well as the speakers being lower quality alongside the fans being noisy.

There are no official recalls for this device, but there are common issues. High CPU temperature readings under heavy loads out of the box is a common issue for many laptops including this one, with users also noting failure of the internal Wi-Fi card, resulting in necessary repair to hold a connection. This device is made by ASUS and is within the "Dash" sub-series that sits below the premium Republic of Gamers (ROG) line but is made to be sleeker and lighter than the ROGs. The 2022 moder replaced the 2021 version which was highly criticized for utilizing quad-core Intel H35 processors that bottlenecked performance, replaced by a 10^th to 12^th Gen Adler Lake H45 processors in the 2022 version, as well as adding a webcam and integrating a physical MUX switch. The TUF Dash line was discontinues after the 2022 model.

The 2022 ASUS TUF Dash F15 is built around a slim 15.6-inch chassis featuring a matte aluminum lid accented only by a small, clean TUF emblem stamped into an upper corner. Flipping the laptop over reveals a gray regulatory sticker that bears the specific FX517 model designation. Inside, the deck houses a full-size keyboard with a dedicated numeric keypad ******on the right side and a distinctive hexagonal power button isolated in the upper right corner. Above the function keys on the far left sit four separate physical hotkeys dedicated to volume and microphone control. The machine concentrates nearly all of its connectivity onto the left edge, which features a row consisting of a round charging port, an Ethernet jack, an HDMI slot, two side-by-side USB-C ports, a single USB-A port, and an audio jack.
