Title: Asus ROG G752VT Notebook Review
Post by: Redaktion on November 15, 2015, 09:40:05
Silent beast. The latest revision in the signature G series takes a small step forward, though not the leap we were all hoping. We detail how the G752 is an improvement over the G751 and how competing models are starting to fly pass the popular Asus G series.

As far as I know this model doesn't have the 3D Vapour chamber cooling.

What about PWM? Is it used for this  panel? Please add this bullet to standard test procedure.
Regards.

Whats the point of comparing a gtx 970 model to gtx 980 models of other manufacturers. Doesn't seem like a fair comparison.

I was disappointed with the screen, but I was comparing it versus a 4K IGZO on an Alienware 17. I benchmarked the two side by side in store on Unigine and the difference in color richness and accuracy was absolutely massive. It's a shame we can't get 4k and GSYNC all in one package. ASUS charges absolutely ludicrous amounts of cash for its high end models and doesn't sweeten the deal enough to justify. (6700HQ on a $2600 notebook and no 4K? Only a single 980M on a $3500 notebook? You're kidding me.)

I wonder if the engineers who design these systems ever stop to consider how difficult they are to get onto an airplane. The dimensions are either

1) too large for to fit into a laptop bag or

2) the bags have to be so big that they do not meet US airline baggage restrictions. The airline I fly restricts bags to 560 x 350 x 230 mm. A computer with a depth of over 300 mm is tough to fit into a bag that is restricted to 350 mm.

I will be crossing Asus off of my list of possibilities on this criteria alone, as I have no interest in putting a $2,000+ laptop into checked luggage. It will be broken by the time it arrives at my destination.

Have to say I think that is pretty ugly compared to the 751.
Have had a G751JY for nearly a year now and extremely impressed, no problems. Don't like this new version at all!

What programs are you running to reach those core temperatures? We're unable to replicate your temperature conditions even with furmark and prime95.

as for the left USB ports, we're experiencing the same issues with external HDDs and will see if this continues when we receive the G752VY test model.

If I compare all Benchmarks I found to the G751JT, all FutureMark Benchmarks are slower thand with the 4720HQ. Not only with Asus, but generally with the skylake. It's not such a big difference, but the new one is slower.

Please post your Benches to verfify.

G752JT Firestrike 6659 here.

How easy is it to upgrade/change wifi-card in the future in G752VT?
Is it easy to reach those parts on the motherboard?

When is the review of the G752VY coming?

I hope you can review the G752VYDH72 model, or at least provide in depth information about the differences between the two VY models.

Hardware is noisy and keyboard misses A LOT of key strokes. Software- windows 10 is a hybrid pain in the a$$, it would be much better if they offered it without tablet mode. I have had it for about 4 months now, not impressed frequently locks up under simple tasks disc maxes at 100% and then locks up. Bought mine from microcenter, I wouldn't recommend it.

Now, I used this laptop one weak, so I want write review to this laptop. First of all, this laptop outward is very beautiful, and the laptop starts quickly and charges fast.  This laptop only one question, is start power display will have a problem, you just need restart will OK. On the other hand, the laptop everything is great. You can play 90 percent games, and this laptop music quality is very well.  This laptop is very cool and strong, only weight is heavy.  This laptop overall is very well, I highly recommend this computer.

"Raw processor performance of the i7-6700HQ is within just a few percentage points from the costlier i7-6820HK according to CineBench benchmarks" -- but what if the 6820HK is overclocked via Intel XTU or Throttlestop vs overclocking hte 6700HQ (Since all Skylake CPUs are somewhat overclockable)?


" ..certainly a step ahead of 5400 RPM drives where transfer rates can be 90 MB/s or slower."
Check out the Samsung M9T 2TB 5400RPM 9.5mm hard drive. It's sequential speeds are easily 120MB/s and random transfer performance isn't bad either, though not it's strong point.
It's a great drive, no real advantage of a 1TB 7200RPM laptop drive over the 2TB M9T and not significantly more expensive either.

I find the Asus G751 and G852 to be quite ugly and crappy because you can't take it apart easily for upgrading. The MSI GT70 and GT60, I like that a lot. Looks better than the MSI GT72 and you can upgrade them to an extreme Haswell CPU and the 980m GPU, possibly even newer in the future.

Has this issue been resolved? I'm getting this laptop in a week and for the hefty price tag I sure as hell don't want to be worried about where I plug my external hdd into or any other device. At this price level I expect nothing but a flawless laptop, unless you maybe got a lemon by chance.

There is a step-by-step photo manual that CUKUSA.com made, it shows how to dissemble the G752 to upgrade the wifi-card, here's the link http://cukusa.com/asus-rog-g752vt-rh71-i7-6700hq-17-3-full-hd-gaming-laptop.html#service-manual

Here's a question: What is wrong with ROG G752 Laptop? I was about to buy it (the top model) but all of a sudden everybody (including Asus) started pretending that it doesn't exist. There are no reviews. There are no promos. You never explained the vapor chamber cooling system that is only being used in the top model (G752VY). Why is that there is not even one review of that model (VY) in existence? So, again, WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT?

I just bought the VL and I'm very happy.  Performs well with WoW and Second Life.  Quietest laptop I've ever owned.  However, the only real complaint is the placement of the gaming center button.  It should be located ANYWHERE else.  When I'm looking to hit the Home key, I always hit that stupid GC key.  Screws my rhythm up.  I don't want to have to switch my hotkeys, but I may have to.

After BIOS update.216 G752VT is capable of RAID (0 or1) directly trough BIOS under IRST section. I bought another OEM 128GB PM951 (NVMe) and i'm running in RAID 0. Naturally for RAID installation i had to add Intel driver folder to my Windows 10 Stick.
