    Hi guys,


    I'm trying to decide between purchasing the Asus G53JW-A1 (15.6" ) or G73JW-A1 (17.3" )... I'll be using the laptop primarily for gaming. It is to replace my current 16" Acer Aspire 6920G (1366 x 768).


    I was about to purchase the G53; but now thinking about the G73... both are 1920x1080 native res. laptops... Does the additional screen size help a lot in gaming (and does it look better, for the high resolution)?


    I would always be using it on a desk; however, I do travel with it sometimes... I've read on the net that the G73 is only sightly bigger and heavier than the g53... In other words, the G53 is oversized... Is this true?


    Thanks in advance...! :)
