The editors didn't like
A few odd key placements
CPU throttling at high CPU and GPU load
Heavy (4.3 kg) and bulky chassis (53 mm thick)
The soft-touch plastic is too fragile and attracts fingerprints and smudges
SSD and hard drive strangely split into four drives
Power jack is a little loose
Expensive
Weak audio performance
You could buy about a dozen game consoles for what this costs. Battery life and design are stuck in the past. You'll need an external 4K TV or monitor for the highest-res gaming
No touch screen. Middling battery life
Heavy
Lacks 5th-gen Core CPU
The clunky design feels out of date compared to newer
Slimmer gaming laptops
Especially for this price. The display resolution is capped at 1
920x1
080 and is not a touchscreen
Underwhelming battery life
Funky partition scheme
Limited access to internal components
The screen won't turn on sometimes
Too heavy and bulky
Mediocre display
Horrible speaker
Unreasonable headphone jack placement
Heavy and bulky
Soft-touch surfaces attract fingerprints
Lid appears unstable
Replacing the battery is not easy
Fans only accessible after disassembly
No recovery DVDs
No Optimus support
And therefore unnecessarily short battery runtimes

Asus G751JY-T7009HWe think the Asus G751JY-T7009H is the best 17-inch gaming notebook in 2014 with a comparatively good price-performance ratio for the high-end segment. The top version of the MSI GT72 does offer more memory and ports, a RAID configuratio...

GTX 980M fastest mobile GPU ever, Well balanced configuration, Quiet (for a gaming laptop), Excellent screen quality
A few odd key placements
Are there downsides? A tiny few. I'm not crazy about the keyboard layout or the decision to use multiple rows of special keys right above the standard Function keys, because it means I tend to whack them when I'm reaching for a hotbar instead. I'm also no...

Top-notch performance, Excellent screen, input devices, and speakers, Runs quietly for a gaming laptop
SSD and hard drive strangely split into four drives, Power jack is a little loose
Asus' latest gaming laptop is a dazzling and quiet performer, thanks to Nvidia's latest graphics chip. The screen, audio, and input devices are also impressive, and the price is right. We wish the power plug fit more snugly in the jack, but that's a quib...

While still expensive, the Asus G751 remains one of our favorite gaming laptops, especially now that it adds Nvidia's G-Sync, making games look better without taking a performance hit...
Laptop G-Sync is amazing, Hugely powerful specs, Surprisingly quiet
Screen uniformity not perfect, No multiple SSDs, Very xpensive
Do you need an extremely powerful PC for Windows — including Windows 10, obviously — and you're willing to make a significant investment to get that machine? As with any laptop, extra power and performance comes at a markedly increased cost ramp-up, and t...
Nice and quiet fans, Great overall design, Good (but not topnotch) performance
