Asus ROG G751JY review

The G751 combines top-end components with a great design

Nice and quiet fans ; Great overall design ; Good (but not top-notch) performance

A rather hefty laptop ; Unimpressive battery life ; Expensive

A good performer and great to use, the G751 ticks almost all of the right boxes.

Asus G751J (G-Sync) review

The Asus G751 was one of the first laptops we tested and reviewed with the Nvidia GeForce GTX 980M graphics card back in late 2014. That excellent GPU has become the standard for high-end gaming laptops because it can not only handle current games at...

Asus adds Nvidia G-Sync technology for smoother gameplay. The hefty keyboard is great for gaming, and high-end CPU/GPU combo delivers killer performance, even when outputting to a 4K display.

The clunky design feels out of date compared to newer, slimmer gaming laptops, especially for this price.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.

Asus ROG G751 review

Looking for subtle? Look elsewhere - this is a gaming laptop loud and proud.

Massively powerful ; Runs surprisingly quietly ; Excellent screen

Big and heavy ; Not exactly subtle styling ; Predictably short battery life

A near-perfect gaming laptop for those who don’t mind a louder look

Asus ROG G751 review

Near the end of an already great year for gaming PCs -- and gaming laptops in particular -- we're starting to see the first wave of systems that look forward toward a 4K future. Many of these laptops don't look a lot different than the previous few...

The Asus G751 has excellent performance, can drive games at 4K resolution, and includes a few handy shortcut keys gamers will appreciate.

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.

One of the first laptops that can drive games at 4K resolutions, the Asus G751 is an expensive but capable alternative to gaming desktops.

Asus ROG G751 ( G-Sync)

Asus ROG G751JY-DH72X

It may not have absolute top gaming benchmark scores, but the Asus ROG G751JY-DH72X is a competitive high-end gaming laptop that outclasses its rivals on features and price.

Excellent 3D performance, even at extreme-quality settings. 32GB of memory. 512GB SSD + 1TB hard drive storage. Lots of ports. 802.11ac Wi-Fi.

No touch screen. Middling battery life.

So how does the Asus ROG G751JY-DH72X end up on top? By beating the former Editors' Choice Origin EON17-SLX on price (the Asus rig is $700 less), better ergonomics, double the system memory, and much more storage (1.5TB vs. 990GB). The G751JY-DH72X is...

Thanks to a new graphics card, this bulky laptop turns in some of our fastest mobile gaming scores ever.

Asus ROG G751JY-DH72X

The first one of these 4K-friendly laptops we've tested is the Asus G751, a hulking 17-inch box that combines a high-end Core i7 CPU, a surprising 24GB of RAM, a big 256GB SSD paired with a 1TB 7,200rpm HDD, and finally, the new GeForce 980M GPU. This...

The ASUS Republic of Gamers G751 Review: G-SYNC Comes To The Notebook Computer

At Computex 2015, NVIDIA announced what will almost certainly be one of their marquee features on gaming notebooks going forward, with NVIDIA'S G-SYNC variable display refresh rate technology coming to notebooks. We'll dive into this more in a bit, but...

Overall, I’ve really enjoyed my time with the ASUS G751. It offers plenty of power, a good display, and is among the first laptops to offer the supurb game smoothing capabilities of G-SYNC. It is certainly not inexpensive at $2150 as tested, to $2650...
