ASUS G71G-Q1

 

The ASUS G71G-Q1 is a full-featured gaming laptop that's one part short of the total gaming package.

Intel quad-core processor. Has 6GB of memory. Cavernous hard drives. High-resolution screen. Nice design. Two-year warranty. Competitive price.

Graphics card is not a match for such a powerful system. An illuminated keyboard should've accompanied all of those LED lights.

Asus G71V review

 

Resplendent in red lacquer trim with blue lighting details, the Asus G71V is a smart looking machine boasting a powerful 2.53GHz Core 2 Extreme processor, Blu-ray Disc drive and nVidia GeForce 9700M graphics card.

The Asus G71V is a relatively well-rounded entertainment laptop, capable of showing Blu-ray films at full high-definition quality, as well as playing modern 3D games. It has vast amounts of storage, and good raw performance thanks to four 2.53GHz...

ASUS G71V Powerful Notebook

 

Having recently reviewed a number of small and light notebooks this is somewhat of a culture shock. In fact a doubt anyone without personal transport would ever think of it as a notebook more of a desktop replacement.

Terrible product

For the price I paid, I could've had a way better and much more reliable desktop - this computer has been a huge nightmare for the past three years, I've taken very good care of it and have used it almost daily for three years, but I've had to send it...

Good buy!

 

The Overclock Mode that comes with it is grayed out and you cannot select it in the tweaking tool at all. Maybe itll be unlocked in an update, Im not sure. The bios would not update even though I followed the steps and had the right ROM for the laptop....

Sturdy, and built very, Very well. Awesome screen resolution , up to1920x1200. The graphics card can easily withstand punishing games like Crysis and Crysis: Warhead. Just a great deal Overall. You wont find a better deal

The lights are kind of annoying if your not into the whole neon light, street car look. Luckily you can turn them off or even change the color of them. There is some bloatware that comes preinstalled right off the bat that you have to get rid of

The slight popping sound through the Speakers, which I don't really mind, but there is a Realtek Update from what I have been reading. maybe I will update it soon. but Im having too much fun playing Crysis on it for now

Wicked

 

Bought this for a portable desktop powerful enough to render video on, and it's really fast, can render 3x real time for standard definition video. Once I get the audio issues worked out (and it appears there's a fix i'm just missing the link to) I'll...

Amazingly fast, solid construction, beautiful screen. Great buy

Mic array doesn't seem to work properly. I'm finding it difficult to find the right driver update to eliminate the audio "pop" no s-vid out, mouse buttons a little stiff. Short power cord, short battery life
