Game Time with the Asus G2P-7R009C Gaming Laptop

Asus has been around since the beginning of an era where MMX processors have been growing until the present. Considering its contribution, it wouldn't surprise me that they started building their own laptops, then soon a gaming laptop beginning with the G2P-7R009C.

When I first saw the gaming laptop, I was stunned, knowing that there are a handful of those who made gaming laptop with this much graphics muscle. The sleek brushed chrome and red trim gave an appearance of having a spy car with all the bells and whistles.
Although the battery life is short, I could expect its performance by playing some of my personal graphics accelerator-killing favorites.

The gaming laptop weighs about 10 pounds, which is typical like my Alienware Aurora m9700. The keyboard felt comfy that doesn't make me feel like getting carpal tunnel syndrome. The A, S, D, W, (I called it SAWD) keys are color-coded red for most 3D shooters. A red LED glows whenever the gaming laptop is in use and the red side panels would flash whenever DirectX 9 is activated. Though I would have switched to Windows Vista to get DirectX 10, I wouldn't recommend it since it wouldn't make too much of a difference when it comes to graphic performance rather than detail and most games have yet to support the newest operating system.

The 17-inch WXGA screen really does my heart good as I bash away with a game of Madden 2007. Powered by Intel's 2GHz Core 2 Duo T7200 and 2GB of RAM, my next game of Half-Life 2 never staggered as I blast away with an excellent 99 frames per second. And what makes the blood even redder is the 512MB ATI Mobility Radeon X1700 graphics accelerator that even a blood trickle has a body of its own.

Of course I wouldn't spend too much time playing games, and the small LCD mounted on the left side just above the keyboard shows me if I have incoming email and appointments and such. Of course, using the gaming laptop for word processing undermines its purpose, but it's a good replacement for your current desktop.

It is a nice laptop but it is definitely not the most expensive or powerful out there. For example the Alien Ware M17
* Intel® Core™2 Extreme Quad
* ATI CrossFireX™ Dual Graphics
* 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 Memory
* 1TB Hard Drive Capacity
* Extreme High Def Video and Audio
* Full-size Illuminated Keyboard
starts out around $1,300 and goes up to over $4,000 fully customized. the Asus G2P-7R009C that was listed above is $1,900.
