@mnotun
you should have gotten on it when it was in pre-order. They had a lot of pre-orders and are shipping a small amount at a time. Probably won’t be available until sometime next month.
I ordered mine with thermal paste. It costs around 40$. That’s 40$ with no difference in temperature?
@VagabonNinja they have the same res dude (the 15″ and 17″). The lower the RES, the better the performance. Screen size has little to do w/ resolution. You’ll get the exact same performance on the 17″ as you would on the 15″
@s9729126c
I’m basing this on fps results at cyberpower pc. They have two laptops with the same card and the 17 inch has about 20 fps less than the 15 inch one.
What is the Windows Experience Index for this beautiful machine?
@VagabonNinja who did you pay 40$ to? please consider that 40$ is not enough to do this job and yes it will likely show no results. also you need to worry about who is working on your laptop.
@VfRuckus repaste did nothing
@xshadowspherex check the vide it is shown in there. same as the g73. 7.1 score
@VagabonNinja they probably didn’t benchmark those two w/ the same settings. Unless of course the 17″ version has a stronger gpu (im pretty sure it doesnt though)
@s9729126c
I’m not too sure about the specifics but they have a drop down menu where you can choose the game (modern warfare/starcraft 2) and their settings and it will show what they got as far as fps. They were tested at full resolution. ibuypower tested them at lower resolution but they were mostly unimpressive when it came to BF2 high settings.
@BToTech1
Sorry my bad, it was 75$ for the IC Diamond compound. I bought it at power notebooks. This is the first time I’ve ordered a custom laptop from there.
@VagabonNinja i am sure donald will take good care if it.
@xshadowspherex See what people say about FPS and look on notebookcheck for info on the GPU. There have been a lot of people that upgrade to i7 laptops only to find a nice framerate drop due to poor GPU and letdown of buying into the useless ratings and other hype. This GPU is very good from the info I’ve seen, and I love the design of this. I’m looking for something that can render video and run Pro Tools a little better than the G50VT-X5 and this seems to have what it takes.
too bad there’s a rattle on the palm rest.. that really sucks bigtime. I hope it gets fixed by asus on upcoming revision models… or maybe it was just a factory defect??? coz im planning on getting this but the rattling sound of the loosely fit palm rest just below the keyboard swept me off bad. tsk.
@wantedvictor i cant say its a big deal. not even worth mentioning.
Whats with the logo, why is it like pealed off?
@AiDz0r the what?
@BToTech1 The logo behind the laptop and the bag, (Republic of Gamers)….
Hey! Think it can run Call of Duty: Black Ops with max FPS? I consider buying since my Asus N51V is getting pretty laggy at the most games.
@SecretSpecialAgent yeah pretty close to it. for the price you will find nothing better equiped then this
@AiDz0r i am not seeing it. there is nothing peeled off
hey @BToTech1, I really need your help. Is this model any different from the ASUS G53JW-XA1 model? The specs are almost the same and its only $1300. Need to buy a gaming laptop. Thanks.
@wantedvictor it’s form factor issue because palm rest made lower. It can be fixed if ASUS replace the material used in g53jw.
@sk8ersboi Only difference out there are: the hard drive and XA1 does not have the backpack + gaming mouse.
@SecretSpecialAgent my G73Jh runs black ops at max and this laptop is better….so yeah, this will run black ops flawlessly at max
