    Hi everyone,
    I was looking for info about the G751 and I found this :
    THE laptop : G750JY
    Notebooks & Ultrabooks - G750JY - ASUS
    Specs :
    Notebooks & Ultrabooks - G750JY - ASUS

    i7 4860HQ /4710HQ
    4 slots of RAM
    GTX 980M w/ 8Gb of GDDR5.
    RAID 0 of SSD's ?
    IPS/TN matte Screen ?
    Optimus ?
    The huge cooling system of the JH/JZ !
    Aluminium case unlike the G751 which is full of plastic !

    I wouldn't buy this BGA filth ever.. I like Asus but going for soldered processors has completed turned me off them.. if I were to replace my AW, which won't be anytime soon with my 970M upgrade, it's going to be Clevo with a mobile socketed CPU or desktop CPU.. Asus have really ruined it in my eyes with this BGA crap..

    Asus never did go in for upgradable parts so going BGA really has not impacted them.

    Well at least before the G750, you could upgrade with great hassle if I must say but completely closing the avenue now makes them a no game for me..

    Having the custom boards with entirely different mounting did that, but we are only a small subset of the market and asus have decided not to cater to that.
