whoever pitched the fucking leather design must be fucking shot to death. Stupid fucks. Leathers are great medium for heat and to put it in a fucking laptop is way beyond me.
no you dont want one, its not supported anymore meaning the last video driver for it was 11/9/2008 asus wont update it and they old ati not to either for some reason.
since its not 2 4870 but some weird setup, for some reason people cant make drivers for it so despite the fact that it could probably go to 2015 if not 2020 before needing an upgrade its basically dead and gone now
youd think so butt it actually doesnt its got some weird set up thats like 4870x2. and thats the reason so many people that have tried to make drivers for it are pissed. they also pissed that neither ati or asus supports it anymore
this laptop kicksass man. this laptop is even better then my computer and my computer isnt a laptop, this laptop is heavy yes. but its portable the problem is youre so weak and need to train muscle to get this 10-16 pounder laptop portable for me it isnt heavy
lol so you buy a desktop replacement laptop but you send it back because its too heavy/bulky? And you compare this laptop to a $500 range Desktop PC, what kind of idiot do you think we are if you expect us to take your advice?
This is good for a Desktop replacement...you can play all the latest games at the highest settings (ram, hard drive AND cpu are upgreadable) and connect a full size monitor, keyboard and mouse and you're set...
But you won't have to carry a full size heavy tower with you!
came doa..geez. i took video,put on it, an it went 2 blu screen. worked 24/7 w/ asus josh, said 2 ship in 4 repair NO. it was new. $2400..so amazon has my 1 video,lol..is big/heavy 4 girl, but beautiful. Asus techs said they have new one 17" out??bit lighter,fully packed. Can't find it. Anyone know model? I'd have kept if asus had given me red carpet but they did not have anymore..amazon was great/qikk n refunding.
Put in a order on May 21st and was told it would ship on, or around, the second of June. Called in again today to make sure it would be shipped with in the next few days and was told it would be around june 12-15th, if they had enough then. I was told it was shipped with some problems so now asus is having all those replaced/reshipped first and then when they have leftovers all the new buyers will get theirs. I cancelled my order to wait and see about the G51 and see which one I re-order.
i dont know about the not building anything over 2000 part but yes it is discontinued
and they wont even support it, the video driver is from 11/9/2008. and people are bitchin that because its not just 2 4870s in cross but some stupid setup that no one can figure out, they cant make any third party drivers for it
Hehe, oh its definately do-able, these mobility chips can be pushed almost to desktop clocks!
I have a friend thats got a single 4850 mobility easily over 12k points now, by flashing the bios you can go overkill, but dont waste warrenty hehe :)
His clocks are 570 GPU Clock 1100+ Memory lol.
17k neverthe less is insane, and that vantage score is godly.
i wonder how good the 4870 x2 vs GTX 280M because or around $2,800 you can have Sager NP9280. 17inch 1920x1200 Intel i7 940 2.93ghz 6gb DDR3 triple channels 1066mhz Nvidia GTX 280M 320gb 7,200rpm HD Bluray ROM QX9300 is not comparable to mighty i7 940 2.93ghz or 920 2.66ghz extreme options are available for NP9280 includes: Intel i7 965 extreme edition 12gb DDR3 triple channel 1066mhz 3 x Intel SSD 160gb Raid 0...IMAGINE THE SPEED!!!
280M isn't that powerfull to be honest, the 4850 ate it at a crysis benchmark when the 280m was overclocked and the 4850 wasn't, the only difference was a resolution difference.
Who needs 6GB of DDR3 ram when you get the same performance as DDR2.
Overclocked Xtreme dual core is still higher GHz then the I7.
SSD's are better with 1 SSD and 2 HDD configuration.
Very nice laptop but a pity that the UK is shafted yet again with only 1 processor choice of T9550 2.66 Ghz and Hard Drive's spin speeds down to 5400 rpm.
i just ordered one of these with the quad core 2.53ghz CPU, arctic silver thermal compound and hard drives set to raid 0. to this date of me posting this, there aren't many PC towers that can beat it *note i say (not many)*. still, for a laptop, this thing is so powerful... it's literally outrageously retarded...
