Now’s your chance to grab the cheapest high-end gaming notebook with GTX 980M and native G-Sync support

asus-rog-g751jy-dh71-review-rear-vents-1500x1000For the past year, major OEMs have been pushing high-end gaming laptops and most of them feature the mobile NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M GPU but, of course, all that performance comes at a price and not everyone can afford it. However, you are in luck because the previous generation ASUS ROG G751 is selling for a decent amount of money and it’s quite literally a bang for the bucks.

Yeah, sure, the CPU isn’t from the latest Skylake generation but if you consider yourself a general user looking for a powerful gaming notebook, the chances are that you won’t feel the difference between the new Core i7-6700HQ and the older Core i7-4720HQ. The 6th generation processor brings marginally better performance and reduced power consumption but the Core i7-4720HQ can still handle the latest games with ease. And while paired with the GTX 980M and 16GB of DDR3 RAM, you got yourself a fully capable gaming beast for just $1 479.

But wait, there’s more. The ASUS ROG G751 we are talking about is the refreshed version that features the so-called G-Sync technology inside the 17.3-inch Full HD IPS panel with 75Hz refresh rate. This will guarantee smooth gameplay even on the highest settings. It’s definitely a good bargain, as long as you are not a gaming enthusiast that likes to spend a few extra hundred bucks on the newer G752 version.
