Hello!

So, since the 10th I have been on my new ASUS G75 670M, I paid 2000$ for it (14000SEK) and I must say, this is my not only my new wife, but also lover and brother in arms. I bought it with intensions of streaming, stupidly enough I hesitated that it would handle a 1280x720 16 : 9 stream, but it's actually running it FLAWLESSLY, the creepiest part about this computer is that while I'm streaming and playing at highest graphics in dota2/sc2, the computer is still a bit uncomfortable due to its cooling, by that I mean that I can actually feel discomfort from cold fingers this is not a bad thing, just something I really didn't expect from the G75. I love it, every part of it and If I could only...
Let's stop here.

Sure it could've had a more efficent GPU, but in all honesty I don't trust the stability of AMD GPU's, all my experiences of ATI are combined with overheating, therefor I wouldn't mind a little lower GPU for more stability.

The current specifications:
17.3 Full HD 1920 x 1080 display
Intel i7 3610M
GTX 670M 3GB
8GB RAM
750GB Hybriddisk, (Planning on upgrading this to an SSD when my economy has restabilized after the huge impact)

Negativities: Stupid port placements, the displayports & the ethernet cable port, as well as two of the four USBs is at the right side, It's not really annoying but just this is space I prefer being empty to give more room for mouse, specially when you are connecting external screens. The computer comes preinstalled with a bunch of crap programs that took about 30minutes of removing manually. the touchpad is "so-so", the click buttons are sweet though.

Positivities: Really quiet, Performs better than I expected, really good cooling system. great display and and good keyboard, I had planned to use an external keyboard because I thought I would hate laptop keyboard, but this one actually feels really good and it didn't take more than a couple of minutes to get used to it.


Pictures are being added soon

In response to your comment on not trusting the stability of ATI: You could just as well have said you don't trust the longevity of Nvidia because of their solder balling issues during the G84,86 and G92,94 lines (this issue is actually less subjective than "stability").

In the end, it doesn't really make sense to go with preconceived notions about a brand from one generation of parts to the next.

I am speaking of own experience, afterall brand choice is always a matter of personal taste, in the end everything has its flaws! thanks for your input though, you are right I shouldn't judge from own experience, but done is done and I'm pretty glad of the current, even though It's barely an upgrade from 570, it's still running everything I need without any issues at all, all though the 680M version is gonna be sick from what I've heard with the kepler architecture being further developed.

I was going to get that laptop.

But instead went with the MSI Gt660

I also know how you feel because this laptop is my pride and joy <3

Enjoy yours and treat her well.
