Asus G50V Review
The tagline "Republic of Gamers" are being used by ASUS to show that this product are targeting gamers segment. However, if the tagline is usually used for graphics cards and motherboards, Asus is now also introducing a notebook which entry in the families of Republic of Gamers. There is Asus G50V is, a 15.4-inch notebook, which is entitled to the title. Asus designer seems to know how to make this G50 thick feel of the gamers. With the dynamic indentation decorated detail, the contrast color with combination of black and orange, and the emblazon of the light blue on the logo and the touchpad, make this notebook looks and feels cool. Can be said, this is one of the coolest notebook on the market at this time.
But certainly not only the look that make this notebook having the title of notebook for gamers. Behind the cool look there is high ckass components being used on this notebook, start from the processor being used which is Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 (2.8 GHz), 4GB DDR2 memory and GeForce 9700GT graphics card with 512MB. This devices combination make the performance ready to race, not only when compared with Toshiba Qosmio F50 notebook, but also when i'm comparing it with all notebooks that i had tested before. One more charm that make this notebook more shining is the presence of two harddisk slots to reach 600GB capacity, this is the biggest capacity on the notebook that i had test.
Not only for playing game, Asus G50V also offering other facility which can be said complete such as Bluray optical device, HDMI connector for High Definition audio video class connection, and eSATA for high speed data transfer. Other facility which should be available on notebook such as WiFi, Bluetooth, webcam and the card reader also available on Asus G50V and make this notebook very usable to be used for everything.
Even if your purpose is simply browsing in your spare time, you do not need to wait because Asus G50V are provided with unique facility called Express Gate. Familiar with this name ? Perhaps, because this facility also being planted by Asus in the motherboard they produce. In simple words, Express Gate is a simple operating system based on Linux. In it there are some simple applications, such as Internet browser, music player and Skype. The booting time to go to Express Gate is about 5 seconds, so it becomes interesting alternative if you want to make simple computing without having to go to Windows Vista that requires more time to boot.
With all of the advantages on Asus G50V, it does not mean that i don't have any complaint against this notebook. One of the lack is the speakers quality which is not maximum. Although using Altec Lansing as the speakers, the sound produced by the speakers sounded less loud and dry without feel the bass effects. The keyboard also not soft and need extra pressure compared to other notebook i had tested. And for a 15.4-inch notebook class, the dimensions and the weight of Asus G50V reach 3.3 kg which make this notebook are above average and not comfortable for get around.
