Asus G73JH-RBBX05
By alihmalih
Since I am a student, I was looking for a very powerful laptop for a very long time. It had to be a real desktop replacement. First, I was thinking about G60VX-RBBX05 for 650. But it is an old model. Then I found G60JX-RBBX05 for 760 which has newer hardware. Then I found this one. I bought it immediately, because I had looked all gaming laptops, such as Toshiba Qosmio, Dell Alienware, Asus N series, Lenovo Ideapads...Some of them were more powerful than this one, but their price...Actually, I didn't buy this laptop on amazon, but I bought it on bestbuy for 903 dollars (849+tax). It is also refurbished. The package is simplest - laptop, battery and charger. Nothing more and nothing more was needed. It has 500 gb hard drive which is sufficient for me because I have external 1 TB hard drive. 6 gb of ram is more than needed :)I could say that comparing to other gaming laptops this laptop has the best ratio of performance/money. Really, 903 dollars to almost fastest quad-core processor (820qm, 840qm, 920xm, 940xm, and Sandy Bridge processors are better) and almost fastest Mobility Radeon 5870 (GTX 460M, GTX 480M, GTX 285M, and future Radeon 6970M are better)!Also, I chose Asus because I trust this company. But other people complain but it's support. I haven't tried to use it yet.Pros:1) performance2) backlight on keyboard. Good to play during nights.3) big screen (enough for me, 1600x900)4) two places for drives. You can make a good combination of ssd+hdd.5) powerful speakers+subwoofer.6) aggressive design. However, girls, I think, won't like it. (it's not pro, actually, but it's what I like in the laptop)7) Remarkably silent. Even if I put your hands in front for radiators, it is not hot. The bottom doesn't heat up at all.I hadn't found cons for me. Nevertheless, I would like to enlist some aspects that you might not like:1) Battery. Yes, it lasts short, but since the laptop is desktop replacement and gaming laptop, I don't care about this.2) Set of ports and their arrangement. Because of rear cooling system, there are no ports and they are on sides. This makes mess of cables. Also, set of ports is poor. No DVI, no eSATA, no USB 3.0, no FireWire, no ExpressCard port, no dial-up modem (maybe not important nowadays).3) Huge charger. Yes, it's huge and heavy, but it's desktop replacement. I don't move it at all.4) Transportability. The laptop is huge and heavy, but again, it's desktop replacement. I don't move it from my table.5) No multimedia or additional like quick launch keys. Actually, there are some, such as FN+arrows for media players.6) No Blu-Ray.7) No Bluetooth.8) Small screen resolution. There are other g73jh laptops with 1920x1080 resolution.9) Touchpad button are tough. But I got used to it for a while and moreover I use external mouse.So, this is my review. Best laptop I ever had. All games run. For students-gamers it is one of the best deals.

It's been pronounced dead after 6 months.
By eshamis
It died on me. Motherboard - dead, price for new motherboard - $920. I've had it for 6 months. Nothing else to add, there are some better deals anyway.

Warning! Be careful when buying "refurbished"!
By KVL
Ok, the laptop is wonderful, I actually got it for like around $900 after taxes at bestbuy (refurbished). If everything on the laptop was in good shape, the only thing I could possibly complain about is the mouse pad, it drives me nuts, it skips and you need to press down very hard to click. So if you bought this PC brand new, that would be my only complaint.Now, the refurbished one I bought had several major issues. The guy who did the refurbishing must have been completely careless. CRACKED SUBWOOFER SPEAKER (Sounds terrible!), it came with software problems as well, the computer would say "start-up is preparing your computer for first use" each time you boot it up, so I started hibernating it instead to bypass the problem. What else... Oh yea, several burnt pixels on the screen. So, a cracked speaker, software issues and burnt pixels is what I got. But I did save 3-400 bucks for the risk.I would say buy it, I doubt this would happen to you, I just lucked out on the guy who refurbished mine :-/
