Asus G71Gx looks great as a gaming laptop good power,wide screen,better battery and perfect pictures and sound.The 17-inch laptop packs a WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution, backed up by a brand-new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M graphics card with 1GB of VRAM. There’s also room for 12GB of RAM and dual 500GB hard drives inside, along with Blu-ray and Altec Lansing speakers to wrap it up with a bow.Visual prowess of the NVIDIA® GeForce™ GTX 260M and a 17-inch WUXGA display, the ASUS G71Gx also sports the innovative CPU Level Up, which provides up to 20%* instantaneous performance boosts via overclocking.
the LEDs can be anoying to anyone else in the room. The only way to have them stop flashing is to shut the laptop down. There are also two LEDs on the very front corners of the laptop,
Big, heavy, and power hungry; mixed performance; lights can’t be completely shut off; no dedicated media controls.It gives it a look of dektop lappy though better for gaming but looks bulky.Though its blue led lights can be liked by some people as for desing is concerned.Beams of lights on the lid go up each side and across the middle. The lights are controllable to a degree; the side beams can be shut off entirely, but the middle beam and emblem never shut off unless the system is asleep or turned off.Which can be bad if you don’t want to turn off you laptop and sleep in the same room with it.
Its reflective screen annoys me if i had to work out in the public.
The complete case is almost completely made of plastic,in particular the display of this laptop is very stable.You can also get faster Web, Skype, and IM and music etc without waiting for windows to bootup with the help of secondary Linux-based OS called Asus Express Gate.
Keyboard goes cool with it.With four speakers your audio needs get fulfilled.This is not good for meetings why because when you will want to show any presentation people are hardly able to see what you want to show them. Only the area around the Blu-Ray drive bends slightly as soon as the notebook’s left bottom edge is lifted.Graphics and processor performance from the Asus G71GX-RX05 was mixed.
