From what I've found there are several different configurations for both the x512 and the f512 (as in either may have ryzen 3 or 5 or either could have have windows home or S) . The only definitive difference I can see between the two is that the x512 does not have an expandable RAM slot. The f512 can be expanded to 12GB whereas the x512 can only ever have up to 8GB.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You'd have to ask Asus to get a definitive answer. We own both an X512 and an F512 in my family and I can clarify a few things: 1) Both units have an expandable RAM slot 2) The F512 came with Windows S, but that can easily be changed to regular Windows through the settings 3) The F512 came with USB 3.0. the X512 did not. 4) The F512 has a back-lit keyboard the X512 does not 5) Depending on exact model/configuration, the size of the SSD/HDD will vary 6) The F512 has a fingerprint reader, the X512 doesn't Hope this helps.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.A quick search gave me at least a glaring difference....the F512DA uses Windows 10 in S Mode...basically the neutered version of Windows. It also appears to have half the RAM and a quarter of the SSD size.
