 Hi, this is LaptopMedia and maybe you've already come across our detailed review of the AC's Republic of Gamers Strix GL703. Today we'll be taking a look at 5 specific reasons to buy or skip out on this laptop. Even if you opt for a configuration with a 60Hz IPS panel that is not G-Sync enabled, you will be presented with a high contrast ratio and high maximum brightness, wide sRGB coverage and almost no pulse width modulation, meaning you can use the laptop for long periods of time without experiencing any negative effect. In addition, our custom profiles further improve the overall image quality. Another asset of this notebook is its fairly efficient cooling system. Even when the hardware was put under extreme workloads, there were almost no throttling issues while it was also being fully utilized despite the high-intensity of the conducted tests. The AC's Republic of Gamers Strix GL703VM is fairly portable for a 17-inch or tipping the scale at just under 3kg and measuring 24mm in height. Although the battery has a huge capacity of 64Wh, the results scored in our tests were rather disappointing due to the higher power consumption. You'll get just 3.5 hours for web browsing on a single charge, which honestly is quite low. The notebook's construction mainly incorporates plastic, which is not a very optimal build material. Additionally, the base unit doesn't provide rigidnesses when pressure is applied to the middle section in the right area of the palm rest, they sink in quite noticeably. That's our list. If this laptop isn't right for you, you can take a look at the Acer Aspire V Nitro, Acer Predator Helios 300 or the Alienware R4. Well, that's it from us for today. Keep up to date with the latest on mobile computing at laptop media, and as always, see you next time.
