Châssis / Design / Build Quality

As soon as you take the G751J out of the box you'll see that this is one serious gaming notebook. Small wonder it weighs 4.50 kilogram and it therefore leaves lasting impressions - positive as well as negative ones. Nevertheless one M.2 solid state drive and an additional hard drive, a high-end notebook GPU, a quad core CPU with eight threads, 24 GByte memory, a 17.3 inch FullHD IPS display and a powerful cooling solution do need some space and cause additional weight. As a matter of fact the G751J can produce more than 200 Watts of dissipation power, which make the cooling system mission critical. ASUS decided to put GPU and CPU underneath the speakers, close to the display. The CPU can be found on the left side and the GPU has been placed on the right side. Furthermore there are two radial fans which blow hot air out of the case. The entire cooling solution is very efficient and keeps the temperatures low and even the noise level is on a very reasonable level.

Like its predecessor, the G751J also comes with a grippy surface. Paired with its distinctive shape and black as well as silver color the design itself reminds of a stealth bomber. ASUS decided to stick to their design theme. The overall impression as well as build quality is great and LAN party gamers will like the toughness of this device.
