ASUS Republic of Gamers G51JX-X3 15.6-Inch Gaming Laptop (Blue) Review
let me put it in a simple way:
Pros:
-Great value laptop
-nVidia 360M for a k price is real nice
-Amazing processor/RAM
-Looks amazing, Startup sound is intimidating :)
Cons:
-Heats up rapidly, I am reaching 90-100c after 20minutes of playing King's Bounty! cooling pad HIGHLY recommended.
-Big, I've had a 15.6 inch laptop bag and this one barely fits in, there is about 2/3 inch from the edge of the monitor to the edge of the laptop.
-Ships with Win7 64bit.
-the Cd that comes with it states that it contains ONLY x64 drivers while in reality it contains both, misinformed.
-As with every laptop, loaded with stupid games and trial apps that slows it.
Other thoughts:
-on the FFXIV benchmark the laptop initially gave me 950/1776 points on 720p/1080p which is depressing. after formatting and installing a fresh unbloated copy of windows the score rose to 1100/2006 which is ok.
-on World of Warcraft [3.3.5] I can manage a steady 18-24FPS in dalaran ultra graphics, adding ultra shadow graphics reduces that to 8-9FPS.
