So here we are at the end of our first (and most certainly not last) notebook review and the G74SX has started things off on the right foot. The performance we saw was absolutely top notch in almost every category and it provides everything someone cou...
Understated and Attractive, Well Powered, Good Screen, Nice Touch Pad
A Bit Clunky, Battery is not fantastic
The ASUS is the gaming laptop for the more aesthetically pragmatic, though it still packs a punch. It's a well catered for machine in power terms, with a good 3D screen and plenty to recommend it....

From the moment we unboxed the G74Sx it was clear that ASUS were aiming to outdo Alienware in the enthusiast laptop marketplace and we were off to a good start with solid feeling chassis, soft touch coating and some futuristic styling (though ASUS pre...
This "mobile" gaming machine really does have everything you need for on-the-go power-computing, even though it weighs almost as much as a lightweight desktop. Asus packs a lot of power into the Asus G74SX, and the system has a fairly svelte body to bo...
