Hello ASUS RoG Community Members,

I'm new member on this forum and i would like to ask some questions and advice/guide from experts, gurus on buying new laptop. My experience with computers, especially with laptops are at newbie level so please understand and help me.

I move around a lot and i want to buy laptop that can compete with desktop performance that is fast, good performance (fast boot, load, DOES NOT HEAT MUCH) and also good for gaming (World of Warcraft, DOTA 2, Starcraft II etc.. games which are not TOO graphic demanding), multitasking (does not freeze or stop responding), storing files, doing work (I work with documents a lot, running some other simple softwares).

I like to design of ASUS RoG G751 and G750 series (black) and my budget is between 1300 - 1600$. Also i don't live in the US, i live in Mongolia but i can get someone to bring it from USA. Where is best/guaranteed place (could be shop or via online) with reasonable price?

If you need more details please ask and i will provide to get the best suitable laptop for me.

Thanks in advance,

G750JM or G751JM with GTX 860 should do you. Not as hot and heavy as the high-end models, which need more cooling, but still fast enough to play the games you listed. Pack it with an SSD and plenty of memory, and possibly the 4860HQ if you can find it, and it'll certainly be fast enough.

Why 4860HQ? is it that good? the processors that are installed on the laptop from asus is not good enough? can i contact asus and customize the processors and ssd ??

So which model do you suggest? Most importantly i need a laptop that runs smooth, fast and able to multi-task. To add on this, what i meant by "i will be moving a lot" was i work on different locations for 2 week and go back home. That means i have plugs to charge :)). Also does SSD perform better than HDD. which one should i get and what size is optimal? What are the downsides of Optimus? I also heard of lower performance cuz of the laptop is using integrated Intel GPU instead of Nvidia GPU??? ANy explanation on this?

16GB of memory is good enough.
Both 4710HQ and 4860HQ are good CPUs, the 4860 is marginally faster though.
SSD performs better than HDD. You can buy up to 1TB SSDs (Samsung/Crucial/Corsair for example)
G751 does not have Optimus.
ASUS partners provide the customizations, ASUS itself does not. Please contact your local retailer to discuss what spec notebooks they are stocking. Some US retailers will customize G series for you.
