  • I got Asus G1S and I am happy

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

  • 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...

see all

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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!

    

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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