    I was wondering if Asus plans on building a G2s with a High end graphics card, or even sli are they thinking about it or even developing. I like asus but the graphics card is what is bugging me think about it even Gateway had a better graphics card. 7900Gs Vs 1800Radeon. (previous models)

    Not possible, the A7 chassis (which is the G2) isn't design to handle anything over MXMII. Unless they change the chassis, i wont see this coming.
