Asus G1s VS Asus G2s

[Kilex7]

ASUS g1s is a piece of shit. can't even run cod4 multiplayer with 125 fps stable, on lowest graphics.

Do not recommend.

Buy a fucking desktop.

Asus G2S still an awesome & powerful gaming laptop that can easily dual boot into retial Snow Leopard 10.6.7 and Windows 7 Ultimate with ease. Asus's G2S is still Asus most beautiful laptop they have ever made, so slick, and unique that even today in 2011 people when they see my G2S ask me where I got it, who is made off, & Wow that is a bad ass laptop! When they see that i'm running Snow Leopard on it & fully, they get more amazed at it!

[LALOMAN18]

My Asus G2S is now Running:

Win 7 Ultimate & Snow Leopard 10.6.7

4GB ram 800mhz

Seagate XT Hybrid SSD 500GB (4GB cache) 7200 RPM

Artic Silver thermal paste on CPU, Nothbridge & nVidia's 8600M GT GPU

Modified CPU fan/CPU/GPU cover lid with a 2 1/2" hole with dust filter for way better airflow cooling!

Cyborg R.A.T. 5 gaming mouse.

New 17" WUXGA gorgious full screen (amazing crisp vivid color).

GPU overclocked at full speed runs newest games in full settins/no problems. 42 to 48 frames!

what year is this? because 2 years ago i was tring so bad to get my hands on this laptop well the 4 gb edition. i ended up going with an hp. notbad but it overheats at high performance

[siv1990]

I have had my G2s for about 2 years and I love it, I had to tweak it a little bit because i wasn't satisfied with the performance, it came with vista home 32bit and 2 gb of ram and i put 4gb and windows 7 ultimate 64bit. this made it run alot better and faster and windows 7 is so much more stable. Only downfall is the poor driver support from Asus and because it is running 64bit i had to get a cooling tray to keep it at a comfortable temperature

[lahnaclannb]

does the G1s A1 support 5.1 suorround sound? I ahve one and I was thinking of getting a logitech x 530 system

[lahnaclannb]

i have g1s and its great, except now theres dust accumilated in the fan and sometimes shuts off by itself

[marciojpq]

I have an asus g1 but is a much better version than that is so awsome!

[ScammerX]

asus g2s is the same a g1 but in red

[yacuzah]

yeah and i like both colours but i dont know if i can use the size of screen ;s i want it big but i travel alot and thats why i cant say if i want the g1 or g2 ;s

[Ralfiukas]

i like both! :) One red, second green :) But which is better? (SOMEBODY WRITE ME BACK)

[yacuzah]

well lets take it from start... they have the same hardware but if you see the littel screen might be able to deliver better graphics but the big screen is very nice and i have the problem i cnat decide ;O

[MitchellHennessy]

I have a G2S, and lemme tell ya, the 17.1 in screen with 1920x1200 is just...too good to pass up. At least it was for me over the G1S. I swapped out the stock Hitatchi 5400 harddrive and replaced it with a WD 7200 and added another 2 GBs of RAM and my system is humming, even with an older 8600M.

[Crazyflasher10]

i have asus G2S too , and my Screen is only 1440x900??

[MitchellHennessy]

I have the G2S-A1...there are other versions like the B1 that is sold outside the US (I think) and it has a different screen resolution.

[Lipston94]

I got Asus G1S and I am happy

but i need better graphics card wiv 512 or 1Gb ram :D

[exodyssey]

get a acer like i did. its pretty cheap compared to asus. i got a 9600gt-m card that really packs a punch when im gaming on modern games. it also have a 3 gb ram so if you need many windows open you wont notice any decrease in speed at all...

[tomstephens100]

i dont know much about computers but dose more

ram help run games better

[sucktheleftone1]

i have a g1s and it's great. the only slight problems are that the inbuilt speakers a crap and it can get quite hot. but the good far outways the bad.

[jonthamo]

Go for the Toshiba Qosmio X300, if you can find it. It's a great gaming laptop with amazing sound for only 1,600 Canadian dollars at bestbuy near my house. It's also got a webcam/mic all that...but no nice mouse or backpack. Although I would rather have a Qosmio without a backpack than a G1/2 with one =P. Qosmio is overall good money value, battery life is about 1-2 hours if gaming, and huge screen. It's heavy though, 10 pounds with the battery in I beleive, but I'd get if I were you

[JanW95]

the Asus G1S=15,4"

the Asus G2S=17,1"

[siv1990]

I have a G2s, its a great computer but the only downfall is it will not work with certain antiviruses, it will crash and need a system restore every time you put programs like bit defender on it so be careful. Norton seems to work but it is not my favourite one to use, also try to get ultimate on it home premium sucks

Hello Siv 1990,

I would like to ask about this laptop screen.

I do not like the current glossy screens, I would prefer to buy a laptop with anti-glare screen.

What type of screen this AsusG2 has?

Is it the color shine version,but does it reflects the light?Is it disturbing?

Thank you.

Regards,

Gaborsa

[matthewskin]

n0oB!

[Crazyflasher10]

i have a G2S right now, and im using AVG, Or Avast virus protection.. I have vista btw

[quicksilvertaint]

I got the G2K, and I picked it for the size - I wanted a beast of a gaming machine that I could still stick in a backpack and take to school. It was super cheap and it's so far served me very well. :D

[imbatman505]

did the g50/g71 replace the g1s/g2s?? i ask because i cannot find these models anywhere for sell anymore.

[nuno953]

and compare heach one with asus g70

[neneledoudou]

I have a g1s and he is so great for the FPS game(unreal tournament,Counter strike) but bioshock bug with this computer

[CknSalad]

g1s is better as its lighter, cheaper, and more portable than the g2s. however, i would recommend looking at the dell xps m1530.

[afghrsu]

i have a g2s and i love it for me is the best laptop in the world! The second is g1s but i like more the g2s

[ManBearPigLOL]

i would say go for the g1sn a1 its got a better graphics card than the g2k a1

[logicalfear]

I think g1s is better, g2s has wider screen, ram, but it is heavier, and hotter.

I have g1s , it is cool, the only problem I encountered is the heat issue, but when I downgraded it, (the core temp now is around 55 to 59 Celcious, the hdd is 50°C with office work) the battery duration is 2Hours with office work as well, I think G1s is better, but I recommend u to do some search in the web before buying it.
