Reviews for the Asus G750JW
The Asus Fighter Jet. Each iteration of the core Asus G Series gets better and better and the G750 series is no exception. The ROG branding has yet to let us down as we find out in this review what the new 2013 models bring aside from the obvious Haswell and GTX Kepler refreshes.

While the G750JW is an impractical laptop for everyday use, it’s a hugely capable gaming machine. It’s possible to spend more on models with Blu-ray drives, faster GPUs and other fripperies, but the G750JW strikes a sensible middle ground: there’s ample power for modern games, wrapped up in a burly chassis, at a price that compares well to rivals from Alienware. If you can live with the over-the-top styling, this laptop is highly recommended.

The Asus G750JW-T4031 provides all the power you could want at a budget friendly price. The 17 inch Asus G750JW-T4031 is a heavy beast at 3.9kg, which puts it firmly in the desktop replacement category. The fourth generation Haswell Intel Core i7 4700HQ with 2.4 GHz is the best of what one could hope for at this price range. Its integrated Intel HD graphics and the powerful NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M work efficiently and the Haswell architecture is used to save energy. So, the most demanding games can be played on highest settings, which is unbelievable considering the price. The glossy full HD 17.3 inch display is gorgeous and a subwoofer provides audio quality that is surprisingly good and loud for a laptop.
The Asus G750JW-T4031 is a gamer's delight, a media powerhouse, and a machine capable of some of the most intensive tasks. Those wanting to edit videos on a at least somewhat portable device will find this laptop desirable. What are the disadvantages? It is designed and built like a stealth plane: all matte black and rock solid. The only downside is the heaviness and thickness of the device. But, it does not at all appear like a downside considering performance for price.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M:
High-End Graphics cards as part of the Geforce 700M series based on the Kepler architecture.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
4700HQ: Haswell-based quad-core processor clocked at 2.4 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.4 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4600 GPU and a dual channel DDR3 memory controller.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
17.30": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem. DTR are mainly intended for stationary desk use, where weight and energy hunger don't matter. In return, you enjoy the advantages of high resolutions (more details, better legibility).» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
4.5 kg:
A laptop in this weight range is a heavyweight that you rarely carry around. This is meant for desktops and the devices tend to score with a large display and high performance and replace desktop devices.
