This 17-inch notebook by Asus is looking to be a pretty solid gaming laptop — an Asus Republic of Gamers (ROG) G73Jh. Announced back in January during CES 2011, the Asus G73Jh is said to be inspired by the Lockheed F117A stealth fighter. See our unboxing photos below and judge for yourself.
Asus ROG G73Jh Gaming Laptop
17.3 inch full HD display @ 1920×1080 pixels
Intel Core i7 720QM @ 1.6GHz (4 cores, 8 threads) Turbo Boost up to 3.33GHz
8GB DDR3 RAM (4 x 2GB)
ATI Radeon HD 5870 1GB RAM
1 TB SATA HDD (2x500GB)
Blu-Ray Drive
DVD Super Multi
Bluetooth 2.1
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
4 USB 2.0 ports
HDMI port
SD card reader
2MP webcam
8-cell 5200mAh Li-Ion battery
Windows 7 Ultimate
When the system is set to Performance mode, the 8-cell battery only lasts about 1 hour after a full charge — that’s how much power this rig eats up easily. Of course, notebooks like this one aren’t recommended to be unplugged from the power outlet.
Suggested retail price of this rig is Php99,995USD 1,704INR 144,453EUR 1,623CNY 12,409. Been running SC2 and DOTA at highest settings without any problems. Expect the full review of the unit next week.

This model is quite outdated Yuga, the newest one is the Asus G73SW which houses the 2nd generation Intel Sandy Bridge processor (i7 Q2630 to be precise).
But I still prefer the MSI GT680R over asus’ G73SW mainly due to price-to-performance ratio. :)

Ang dami naman na stickers! Sana yung updated na model.
Messie says:
Boss Yuga naman, SC2 and DOTA, these are not graphic intensive games eh! >_<
Please try playing newer FPS games there such as COD: Black Ops or Battlefield 2 and let's see if smooth pa rin ito at highest setting. If it is, then it might be worth the 99k price tag that comes with it (but then again, maybe not! ang mahal kasi e! ahehe =P)

i like this…
now i wonder if we will hear folks complaining about being overpriced, since this is windows based, and not apple.
Mike says:
parang ALIENWARE ung design ng back nya at saka ung pagka plastic.
Faith@ahead says:

adam says:
Nakaka hinayang bumili ng 100K worth na laptop.
grep says:

Name: Marcus says:
parang Alienware nga design nya. Pati price nya prang alienware din. Ewan ko lang kung may lighting effects din yang aa Asus
BTW, I was here a few hours ago and I saw the account was hacked with a logo Hacker inside (same like intel logo). Just a heads up sir yuga.

old news.. this was announced back 2010. I got this machine and its been running very solid since i got it last may of 2010. and yes, it runs most of the games today smoothly at maximum settings.
Lezure2010 says:
I’ve heard and researched about this laptop one year ago, and at that time it was quite the bang for the buck for it’s performance.
Sir Yuga, try playing Crysis on it and see how well it handles that. ATI 5870 isn’t the strongest mobile card but 8 GB of memory ought to help it.
Nice peak into the laptop sir yuga.
G60JX says:
i’m sure this can easily handle crysis 2 at max settings. been using the asus g60jx for a year and it has lower specs but it runs crysis 2 smoothly at med settings.

If you want to check try to open the MSI and you’ll see that the MOBO is made by ASUS. Even Alienware desktop’s and laptop’s MOBO are made by ASUS.
