Asus ROG G752VS Series

Overclocked processor and graphics card deliver performance that rivals that of desktops. Plenty of ports. Lots of storage.

Heavy. Expensive. Keyboard flex is disappointing compared with that of predecessor.

Conclusion Aside from a quibble about keyboard flex and the $3,000 price, it's easy to recommend the Asus G752VS-XB78K for the dedicated gamer who can afford it. You get what you pay for, and it's hard to argue against performance that rivals what you...

Incredible gaming performance ; Comfortable keyboard ; Great connectivity and ports

Anemic audio ; 1 year warranty ; DVD drive

The G752VS is certainly impressive. It offers almost double the a level of gaming performance over previously available single-GPU notebooks, which is insane. It’s not a one-trick pony, either—both its quad-core CPU, DDR4 memory, and PCIe SSD are...

The high-end notebook from Asus certainly does not have to hide behind the rivals, quite the contrary. Users of the Asus G752VS will get a lot of performance. The Pascal launch starts a new era for gaming notebooks and even clearly surpasses the...

The GTX 1070 is extremely fast, providing desktop-class gaming performance. Huge cooler is overclocking friendly. Very easy to upgrade RAM and storage. G-Sync (variable refresh rate) should be a must-have for gaming laptops.

Larger, uglier and slightly more expensive than its competitors. The 17.3-inch 1080p display doesn’t set any quality records.

The Asus ROG G752VS OC Edition offers excellent gaming performance and plenty of power for other tasks like high-resolution photo- and video-editing. The screen's 120Hz refresh rate keeps games looking smooth as does Nvidia's G-Sync tech.

The laptop is big and heavy, with a shape that keeps it from fitting in normal 17-inch laptop bags. The touchpad is too unreliable for a $2,500 laptop. Missing the RGB keyboard found on the lower-end Asus Strix models.

The Asus ROG G752VS OC Edition not only looks the part of a gaming laptop, it has the insides to tackle whatever you throw at it. Too bad some of its other pieces don't match its price and performance.
