"Unfortunately this gaming laptop can't play games."
Pros: How do they sell this much performance for this price.
Cons: After the graphics card hits 82 degrees Celsius, it slows down to a crawl. I get about 2 fps in the game Crysis. It takes 10 minutes for this to happen.

Summary: Just amazing. With Asus you can't beat the ba... read more

Pros: Very powerful,very attractive.
I was first going to buy the Alienware(R)g71x.$2000 for a machine that is nearly twice the price and half the power as the asus g71x did.If your on a 1500 budget and you want a powerful gaming machine this is the choiceCons: It gets hot at times.
