“The Asus ROG Rapture GT‑AXE16000 is a hard‑to‑justify $700, but this Wi‑Fi gaming router delivers all the tasty goods: excellent throughput performance, 10Gbps wired Ethernet connectivity, and support for Wi‑Fi 6E.”

“While the throughput impressed us, our network congestion testing left us thinking that this router needs to mature further due to weak QoS performance.”
