This review is from: Asus G50VT-X1 Refurbished Notebook PC – Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.2GHz, 4GB DDR2, 320GB HDD, DVDRW, 15.6” WXGA, Vista Home Premium (Personal Computers)

Does everything I expected it to. Much to my surprise, although it was refurbished, it arrived completely unscathed. I was a little worried about the packaging it came in--perhaps I was a little paranoid because I'm used to coddling computer components--but it was in impeccable condition. It's really a great gaming laptop, and I never miss out on a chance to rub it in somebody's face when they show me a lesser laptop (one equipped with integrated Intel graphics accelerators) that costed more than mine. Ho, that's satisfying.

Ahem, but yes, this laptop's really beautiful. A nice glossy top with a pretty cool graphic on it, with showy blinking LEDs embedded in it. It came pre-installed with Windows Vista, some miscellaneous programs and all the driver CDs were packaged with the laptop--pretty much everything I expected from a computer store. Well, I wiped the hard drive the second I got it, put Windows 7 on it, and it runs like a charm. I play the current games like Team Fortress 2, Left4Dead 2, Left 4 Dead, and other games all at their highest detail setting with no slow down. And hey, even the little LED thing on the front still works after I installed Windows 7. The Direct Console still functions regularly and everything works really good. The keyboard isn't a microcosm of keyboards as far as laptops run. Unfortunately, it does run a little hot where my hands are on the keyboard, though.

Overall, I feel this was a great investment. Highly recommended.

This Laptop can do it all, and a little bit more.

I do a lot of Freelance work at home with the true-wide screen it helps.

This laptop runs Adobe Creative Suite and H.A.W.X with no problems.

Asus has me hooked.
