The editors didn't like
Overall performance falls behind top competition
Lid picks up fingerprints easily
Below-average battery life
Slow hard drives
Speakers sound terrible
General performance isn't very good
Can't play games well on full settings at native resolution. Large. Heavy. Mini DisplayPort
Not Thunderbolt. Only 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi
This laptop's still not cheap
It may not be $2
000
But it's far more expensive than the average laptop. And
Let's face it
This machine's still a boat. Also
In performance it lags behind more powerful gaming laptops like the Origin EON17-S
Hefty
Even for a 17-inch laptop
Webcam software setup is confusing
No touch screen for Windows 8. Can't offer playable performance at top graphics settings
No way to change the colors on the backlighting of the keys
The battery life is extremely shot
No 5.1 surround ports could be an issue for a number of core gamers.
All in all, this system was a bit of a mixed bag. The styling and presentation are quite nice, and there’s plenty of CPU power to spare; the decision to run with 16GB of memory really helped with ensuring that I never had to sit through lengthy pauses...

The Asus G75VW-DS71 is nicely priced for a midrange gaming laptop, and it works as a multimedia behemoth. But it starts to wheeze when taxed with high resolution and detail settings. Think of it as a part-time gaming rig....

Heat and NoiseCooling is one thing ASUS has done well on its 17.3-inch G-series notebooks and the G75VW is no exception. The cooling systems for the processor and graphics cards are cleverly separated; the left exhaust vent is for the processor and the ri...
