One thing you might notice is that the ASUS ROG G751JT performs admirably against the superior Aorus X7 Pro, especially considering the processor difference.

The Aorus X7 Pro uses dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M GPUs (which the ASUS ROG G751JT also has, though, but only one of it). We decided to bring in the Aorus X7 Pro, the Gigabyte P35X V3 and the MSI GT72 2QE Dominator Pro as comparison machines. As usual, we're going to be benchmarking the notebook through PC Mark 8 (which tests general hardware performance), 3D Mark 2013 (which tests the GPU's capability) and then gaming benchmarks using Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor and Tomb Raider. There'll be no changes for the benchmark criteria in this review. On paper, it seems like a foregone conclusion, but how did the ASUS ROG G751JT fare in the real world? What this all means is that the GeForce GTX 970M is significantly less powerful. The NVIDIA GeForce 970M has lower specs with a lower clock speed (924MHz vs 1038MHz in the GeForce GTX 980M, which is a 12% difference), less shader units (1280 vs the GeForce GTX 980M's 1536, this time a 20% difference) and lesser memory. Also, the GeForce GTX 970M is still a fairly powerful GPU, but relative to the GeForce GTX 980M, that's when it looks weaker. Despite the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M just being a step down from the 980M, that step down is actually pretty significant. Apart from the storage subsystem, the rest are actually acceptable 'cuts' given the price difference between them.
Now, compare that to the ROG G751JT, which 'only' has a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M, a hybrid HDD and half of the amount of RAM present in the ROG G751JY.ĭon't get us wrong. The ASUS ROG G751JY has a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M, SSD storage and 16GB of RAM. Crucially, the differences between the two can be traced to three crucial components - the graphics card, the amount of RAM and whether SSD storage is available. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M with 3GB GDDR5 VRAMĪlthough the two are identical on the outside - same chassis, display, ports, dimensions and weight - their innards are quite different. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M with 4GB GDDR5 VRAM Here's the table comparing stats for both variants of the ASUS ROG G751 notebooks again, note that we're reviewing the 'JT' variant, the less powerful model in the right column that's available now:-ĪSUS ROG G751 Notebook Model Specifications Model As such we pressed on with the review of the ASUS ROG G751JT. As we've shared much of the build, aesthetics and other key features that are shared by both notebooks models in our earlier preview article, we'll jump straight to the performance evaluation of the ASUS ROG G751JT in this review article. That was a little disappointing since it was a lower specced gaming notebook witha NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M GPU and a hybrid HDD that would make it difficult to compete against speedier notebooks with a SSD and a top of the line GeForce GTX 980M, such as its own ROG G751JY model.ĭespite our initial letdown, the G751JT is about S$700 more affordable than our expected G751GY model and that could really open the gateway for those who don't have steep pockets and yet want to indulge in a good gaming notebook.

So when we finally got a full retail version of the ROG G751, we expected it to be the JY version (which was what we previewed earlier) but instead we got the ROG G751JT variant for review. So we waited till ASUS had a retail ready version of their ROG G751 notebook. Alas, it wasn't to be as that was only a preview unit.
We were pumped to put the ROG G751 unit we had through our full set of tests.
We've had extensive hands on time with the G751JY variant last year, and found its capabilities, sleek looks (the black and red color scheme really hit the spot for us) coupled with its decent preliminary performance and price that got us intrigued.
ASUS' ROG G751 notebooks aren't exactly new to us.
