Since I'm temporarily not home much (which is a very nice desktop) but still like the occasional game play and also called'm good hardware to do (my job very fond think heavy queries and large excel sheets ) I recently decided to once again go find out. proper laptop My budget was max € 1800, - and the premise was that I was 'high' wanted to play most games, and that I can with this purchase for a while ahead (ie newest generation hardware). After reading many reviews, including here on tweakers, and the decision not to go for a Medion or cheaper MSI (Medion does love Aldi appearance, and MSI things to see me there carnival-like appearance) entered the battle ultimately between the Asus G750JX-T4144H and MSI GS70 2OD (Stealth)-061NL where the lower price, the better GPU (GeForce GTX 770m) and the improved design of the Asus finally made the difference. According to the benchmarks, the Asus alone would not handle Crysis 3 on Ultra, which was combined with the price (€ 1699, - in Norrod) something that greatly appealed to me. A major drawback (mi), where nowadays you can not escape to, is that standard Windows 8 comes on, something I did I advance to find out whether I could be there. installed Windows 7 over Simple is not because Asus does not provide Windows 7 drivers. However, I came across a thread on a foreign forum where someone had put together. working all alternative drivers already in one. zip archive This was still as Peeling, but to do so. Meanwhile, my machine is running so like a charm under Windows 7, even with all the (non-crap) bundled Asus software. The start-up times may be deteriorated slightly, but then we are talking about seconds, and saves it from sleep nothing. Next step is a dual boot with Linux, but I foresee no problems now Windows 8 out of the game. Another disadvantage is the time you can go on the battery fully (max. 2 hours), which is very bad, but escape you in this segment almost not, or you provide directly to performance. If you are just a little internet, then it still (max. 4 hours) Continue (surmountable) Cons: -Little little memory (8 GB, but easily expandable to 32 GB) Only Single-band WiFi (no problems had but dual is finer; killer card I already ordered) then playing games. Until now I have only Far Cry 3 and Civilization 5 play, but both at the highest settings without stuttering and with truly dazzling eye candy. Benchmarks I have not taken, they can at Tweakers much better and there they are also found. What is striking is the absence of noise and heat. Occasionally 'zooms' he's a bit like being asked a lot, but more it is not. Very nice! Overall I am very pleased with my purchase, of course it can always be better, but you pay in this case immediately hundreds of dollars more. In terms of "bang for buck" I think it is hard to go over here, where the 'fear' of course is a bit colored by my particular preferences.
