Hail to the King baby! | |
 | The ROG G74SX-XA1 is great for gaming, but its hardware is serious business. Powered by the 2nd generation Intel Core i7-2630QM processor with 8-way processing capability, the ROG G74SX-XA1 outperforms other notebooks with massive memory bandwidth for ultra-smooth multitasking performance. Featuring Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology, processor speed is automatically adjusted to your needs by accelerating performance for your task at hand. With a host of power profiles, this gaming powerhouse has a built-in overclocking mode via ASUS Power4Gear Hybrid that activates with a simple push of a button located above the keyboard that turns up system performance above its default level. |
Leading Gaming Power for the Next Generation | |
 | The ROG G74SX-XA1 features the new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M graphics engine for unprecedented visual performance. With unmatched DirectX 11 support, experience a totally new class of virtual interaction for more dynamic gaming. The ROG G74SX-XA1 also features a massive 750GB 7200RPM hard drive to store your movies, games, and pictures. Plus, the ROG G74SX-XA1 offers 12GB of DDR3 system memory for incredible multitasking capability. |
True-to-life Multimedia | |
 | Featuring a 17.3-inch LED-backlit Full HD display, the ROG G74SX-XA1 lets you enjoy the latest in HD playback for an immersive experience with sharp images, smooth video transitions, and brilliant clarity. With HDMI connectivity, turn this gaming powerhouse into your personal media center by connecting to an external monitor or HDTV and enjoy flawless 1080p HD playback. Pair that up with THX + EAX 5.0 3D gaming audio technology, and together they make the ROG G74SX-XA1 not only a great gaming notebook, but also a hub for multimedia entertainment. |
Get Comfy | |
 | Gaming is something to be enjoyed, so why not be more comfortable for extended gaming sessions? Fatigue will be a thing of the past, thanks to the ROG G74SX-XA1's 5° incline keyboard designed to provide a better ergonomic angle, as well as super comfortable rubber-like palm rests that's easy on the palm and wrist. There's also more space between the keyboard and number pad, so it resembles a desktop keyboard. The harder you work, the more heat you generate. A computer is no different, and with the amount of power in the ROG G74SX-XA1, some serious cooling is needed. A unique venting design pulls air from underneath the notebook, cooling the system down, and then vents it through the rear, keeping hot air away from the user and reducing ambient noise for prolonged gaming. |
Stealth and Strength | |
 | Like its predecessor, the ROG G74SX-XA1 design was inspired by sharp polygonal shapes, but this time inspiration came from the US Navy's Sea Shadow stealth ship and modern day aircraft carriers. Like the stealth ship, opponents will never know what hit 'em, and like an aircraft carrier, the ROG G74-XA1 has the firepower to shock and awe the competition. |

Very good laptop for it price, super fast, run high end game like a champ. One thing though, got my first bluescreen of death after 20 hours of having this laptop; first, everything went non responsive, then lag, then can't even shut it down, then bam, bluescreen. But I have faith in this, hopefully everything will work smoothly from here on out. I'll post an update after 15 days to tell you how it goes.UPDATE: After 15 days, well a little over 15 days, everything are still running smoothly. This baby is really bang for the bucks, seriously! :) Will keep ya'll posted if any issues arises. 12/6/11 Still running good. Except, if I put it into sleep or hibernation mode, 90% of the time when I resume my session it would start to get laggy, then can't even move the cursors, then freezes. So now, I just turn it off and back on when I wants to use it. Also, for an expensive laptop like this, their speakers really sucks. My cheap Dell laptop got speakers... Read more

I bought this computer after doing extensive research on some comparable machines for the price. Honestly, i couldn't find one. It has all the power of a high grade desktop in a laptop. The design of the laptop is very well done with the way the heat flows out of the back. And the screen is a very large,very crisp display. It has an extra socket for another RAM card (only about a $30 upgrade). As far as gaming goes, WoW runs at 45 fps in Ultra (in org), CoD Blops runs at about 37-40 fps in ultra. There is no game that I have played that the machine can't run.The reason I gave this machine a 3 is because of the following. The camera didn't work (not a big deal), The BIOS was out of date when I received it (easily corrected). Something a little annoying is the "NUM pad" is just duplicates of the top number keys which is bad for both games that need key binding and for people who need to use the Alt-code keys for other languages. Now, this is more of a personal... Read more

Beautiful Laptop, Incredible Value,
This review is from: ASUS G74SX-XA1 Republic of Gamers 17.3-Inch Gaming Laptop - Black (Personal Computers)
Pros:First off I would like to start off stating this a beautiful computer; It is just an amazing design. While the appearances of the Notebook was quite important to me, it did not take precedence over performance; this laptop performs admirably in all applications varying from Games to benchmarks to everything else. All the games I play are easily maxed by this beast of a laptop (Or should I say desktop replacement). The thermals on the laptop are by far the best I have ever seen for any notebook of this class; the average cpu temp averages around 30 centigrade idle and reaches a max of around 60 centigrade when being stressed by Prime 95(Which is between 140 and 150 degrees Fahrenheit). The area above the hard drives do get warm when being used constantly (The hard drives are under and to the right of the track-pad, but the temperature actually comforts my hand and does not annoy me). The area above the gpu does get slightly warm, but it is un-likely your hand would be... Read more |
