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The clunky design feels out of date compared to newer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

Overall, the Asus G751JY offers something tangibly different to gaming laptops of the past. It shows that G-Sync is a match made in heaven for notebook gameplay, giving players more flexibility in the time-old tussle between visuals and frame-rate. With t...

The clunky design feels out of date compared to newer, slimmer gaming laptops, especially for this price.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
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...
beautiful and solid built, excellent display, good keyboard and trackpad, fast performance, runs cool and mostly quiet, fair price
bulky and heavy, rather poor speakers, some awkward key placement decisions, flashier than the previous generations
The Asus G751JY is a beast, and while it's not the fastest 17 inch gaming laptop out there, it is probably the best value for the buck you can get right now. It can handle games smoothly at maximum details, it runs fairly cool and quiet, it looks good and...

Attractive, but subdued exterior, Excellent keyboard and touchpad, Beautiful, accurate display, Strong performance in all areas, Incredibly quiet, even at full load
Keyboard is hard to read with backlight off, Average battery life, Bulky
The Asus ROG G751JY-DH71 retails at $2,500, and it's the least expensive version available that also includes the Nvidia GeForce GTX 980M GPU. This price is competitive, but it's not the knock-out value that has been offered by some previous Asus gaming ...

Diseño muy ergonómico, silencioso y de excelente ventilación, Rendimiento en juegos y tareas exigentes superior a la media, Calidad de imagen de la pantalla
El sonido de los parlantes no es nada especial, La duración de la batería, aún para un equipo de estas prestaciones, se queda corta
Después de una semana de uso del equipo, fue difícil volver a acostumbrarme a mi laptop tradicional (que no es exactamente un equipo de oficina). Y es que la experiencia de uso en general del ROG G751JY es muy cómoda en todos los sentidos. Su rendimie...
