Asus G73JW-A1 First Bootup Video Part 2 of 2

[planet619]

Can you see pixels on the screen?

[Bowman12Chris]

is it good on world of warcraft

[Hippo2626]

@GuitrumVideos I just got the g73sw and I got a couple of questions. How do you keep the laptop clean of thumbprint smudges?

By the way the sw laptop doesnt have the crackling noises already. If I'm not mistaken they changed to sonic gear speakers and its amazing. It can be louder than my external speakers.

[dzrzrd]

With the full battery charged is honestly possibile working for 6 or 8 hours with Photoshop, Indesign, Bridge, Firefox and Thunderbird open, WiFi always connected, keyboard backlight to minimum (not off) and display screen on minimum backlight power (let's say 2 on 10) or not?

[evKONTREX]

Hey GuitrumVideos. Your videos are awesome and very informative, but I still have some questions. As of right now, what laptop is the best to play/do the following: World of Warcraft, CoD Black Ops, CoD Modern Warfare 2, Just Cause 2, Record and Edit games at maxed settings (eg. Montages for Modern Warfare 2). Would be appriciated if you came up with an answer in the nearest future, if not, you're still my hero. Enjoy life, I will always watch ur vids. Keep them coming :)

[jewie27]

[p1n0yBalleR]

"I dont have a black friend" LMFAO

[xavier415]

This Asus laptop runs better then my HP desktop elite with quad core 4 gigs of ram and upgraded 1gig Video card from ATi. I love the laptop yeah people comment at work that its huge, i bought a Dakine back pack for snow boarding and it fits in there pretty snug, it runs amazing i havent had to use the over clocking feature yet. The fans work great no overheating whats so ever! awesome computer Asus made.

[abstrakt999]

[HunterOfHalfLife]

[prohacker883]

why didnt you buy the 3D version ?? evreything is the same but the the other one has 3D should have bought it :D

[prohacker883]

ooo all the light come on :D LOL :D

[Miroslawsnketr]

Hey again..i got two more important questions to ask before decide to buy this lap and i just cant respond by myself...

1.- Since there are a lot of games out there and the new ones requiere more and more capacity...i would like to know if there is a game that this laptop cannot play, i mean does this Asus have limitations?

2.- What is the difference between the 12 GB RAM version and the 16 GB RAM...maybe the one that has the most will run normally games in the future? is this significant? thx

[panzerkiller13]

@Miroslawsnketr No the amount of RAM does not matter at all. You can put more in yourself if you would like. Other than the AMOUNT of RAM that comes with it they are the exact same.

[Miroslawsnketr]

Hey mate, i like your unboxing video, i would like to know too what is the name of the aluminium cooler and the keyboard? cause they looking really good, as i like. By the way... no offence but you look an Hawaiian boy ;p

[chibifirestorm]

@Miroslawsnketr

Keyboard is a Microsoft Sidewinder X6

[vmilovmilo]

how many inc. is it

[davichoo0]

YOU KNOW A WEBSITE WHERE I CAN BUY ONE OF THIS BUT IN HOUSTON ?? sorry caps

[WyvernX13]

The mouse that comes with is is the same as the IDEAZON Reaper edge gamer mouse

[WyvernX13]

Is that a bloodelf next to you?

[kindom2010]

No black friend? I have plenty

[xEmberstrife]

Fuck G73 it is too big, get the G53 same but smaller 15.6" version :)

[illkickurass1]

Does this model still have the laggy keyboard thing? any solutions i heard if you turn of the touch pad in bios the keyboard works fine? True? PLEASE ANSWER i really want that laptop, but i dont want a f'd up keyboard at all.

[ADRIEL296]

Can you play ps3 video games on this laptop without any type of adaptor? Does a xbox 360 or ps3 wired controller work with this laptop? Can you still display the image from your laptop to the monitor while the lid is closed?

[MegaSpencer12345]

do you have to set up all the additional stuff too like the tv

[AliveDesign]

does this model sell in retail stores ?

[GuitrumVideos]

@SuperOblivionman i want everyone to know that NONE of the asus G73 models can change their backlight color.... that stupid video (if you ACTUALLY WATCHED IT) is simply a modification where you take apart your keyboard and put colored plastic beneath it

[SKshooter]

i don't have a black friend.......ROFL!!!

[tallthunder]

What did you do to remove bloatware (other than manually delete them) and bring specs up?

Thanks and congrats!

[lukiandres]

How many colors have the backlight?

[Cheejyg]

hey i have a question!

i've seen other videos on youtube that there will be a "squeaky" sound when u press near the sides of the keyboard around the btm-left area... do u have this problem??

[bolpkia951]

can you change the laptop keyboard led colour?

[THEOOJOKER]

dear can u tell me whats the problem with xoiticpc ? i orderd one by the price 1489.97$ .mine is g73jw-xr1 wich exclude bluray and its a 500 gig harddisk but after checking out it came up to 1537 i donno is it the taxes or what..coz its not mentioned there + im a student as well and they didnt give me any discount at all i heard a friend of mine say discount only on d accessories 3rd and last thing im n TX and should i add the THERMAL COMPOUND ( IC DIMOND) coz i keep it up 24/7& its hot here

[CaptainGrimey]

This is the best bang for your buck, with the fewest bugs in the Asus range. Fixed keyboard and touchpad buttons, bios

To compare price brackets for those of us fortunate enough to have a strong currency, to customise a similar Alienware System, albeit Without the high res screen would cost you £2,633.48 while you can order this ASUS off Amazon in the US and have it shipped over for about £1100 (Excluding additional taxes/customs - varies)

This is what I did yesterday. Goodo.

[HorrorcoreIsTheBest]

I love your setup man. How well do you think this computer would run Black Ops?

[ArchHamza]

hey mate , how did you get the 50% off ? as a student ? how did it work ? i mean when you wanted to input the visa number n stuff or what exactly ?

[TheNesfero]

Inspected by No. 45...Good Job!

[639426]

where did you buy it? did it come with the gaming mouse? how much was it? will it be a problem if I don't have black friends only brown? lol

[1BYEBYE1]

wheres ur black ps3?

[FadeD47]

@1BYEBYE1 u mean black xbox360

[darkrobroy14]

dude what brand and model is your usb hub

[Zyxarix]

Lol black black black pens xD

Nice review (y) Im getting one next year, updated version ofc. !!

[lordbeaker]

Got a color correction for ya. I've noticed at the store and through my friends ATI model that the screen favors the blue gamut, and people are saying they can't seem to correct the colors. Have you tried correcting the LCD colors to something more warm? Just asking because I'm a designer and need to be at least close to natural color.

[gomerfa]

Your a funny lad, i enjoyed waching this. Getting my jw tomorrow :)

[coldsteelwonder]

It's okay. I don't have a black friend either...

[D4RK809]

@tzillian

Only in first class. :D this is a huge laptop and with a battery life of 1:30H. So unless your flying across town good luck getting power on the whole trip.

[tzillian7]

do you think you could use this on a plane? will it fit on the tray table?

[roksys69]

you my friend have made possibly the 2 best catch lines in history.....

"and this is for your..... pot"? ROFL

"everything is black..... I dont have a black friend though" ROFLMAO

[fatcrewz]

It is not worth to keep after 2 years.

Can u show me the wireless

[fatcrewz]

I will sell it after 18 month.. they probably will release better version anyway

[MrRodde76]

in sweden they sell with only one harddrive, 6gig ,,

[stanleypuu3]

how much did this cost and can u send me the link to ur same deal or is it over?

[lyubomir1111]

Awsome

[mihhhdaftpunk]

Where did you bought it? Do you know if there are any stores selling this model in Boston? We are from Brazil and my dad is going today to spend a week in Boston and I told him to look up for this model with the GTX 460. I would be glad if you could help us out by telling where can we buy it. The only place I've seen it yet is on Amazon. But my dad prefer physical stores when it comes to buying hardware and eletronics.

[TheCoonassboy]

i am geting the new asus g73jw-xa1 witch with tax and shipping cost 1494 dallors so woo only thing that is different is that mine will have a 750 hardrive and no blueray(witch i dont car about cause 1 i dont rent movies and if i do i just rent off on demand and also i never heard anything about pc games going to blueray so wooo)

[hocplyr98]

"And this is for your.... pot." LOL

[ilordvader]

Thanks for the Video

I like the Asus laptop thinking of getting the G53

[MyChristian92]

what is your argument of the laptop?

acruali it is a nice gamer laptop?

[Gakknor2]

My questions are: 1.) How much did it cost? and 2.) How well could it run FFXIV?

[khalid046]

@Gakknor2

i want to know also..plz give us the benchmark report or someting..thnx for the upload Gutirum

[tore1992]

@Gakknor2 The 460M is not quite as good as the 5870M ... The 5870 laptops are cheaper ...

[lalalahaha1234]

your friend looks so bored lol

[Oriontothesun]

My G73 backpack was checked by Nr.49, maybe that expains the 2 silencers inside...

[PStimeless]

whats the temperature range while idle?

[drewitt8]

you should run some 3d mark and post score :P

[GuitrumVideos]

@drewitt8 i would, but i dont want to force this thing too far, i have to make it last 5 years XD

[TheRES74]

@GuitrumVideos lol coool it will? 5 years?? wow.... im scared if i buy this, what if theres a new model coming out in 3 months or somethin?

[quicksliversbutt]

@GuitrumVideos dude 3d mark wont damage your computer. especially this one.

[BluMonkiSpartan]

@GuitrumVideos nah dude! 3d mark wont ruin your computer man! besides with all the gaming your gonna do it wouldnt even make a difference!

heat and dust will be your worst enemy...if you protect it against that than your fine! :)

[DeathNoltz]

@GuitrumVideos So why did you bought this then? This is designed to play Games in High Quality and you are worried about forcing it with 3D mark. What a waste of technology if you are not going to use it

[chochanga]

great laptop... congrats!!!! tell me about the cooler base... is it worth it in this model? cheers !!!

[GuitrumVideos]

@chochanga its not bad, its huge, but the laptop is still wider but thats no big deal.

for 50% off, it wasnt a bad deal.

[holo2341]

@GuitrumVideos umm do u have any problems with this laptop like keystroke or anything else bec the JH model got keystroke problems. PLZ answer

[SolaceEconomics]

@GuitrumVideos if you'd choose any other laptop, regardless of price, would you still recommend this? cheers.. I'm planning to buy a new laptop as well but not sure which to get.
