Hail to the King baby! | |
 | The ROG G74SX-A1 is great for gaming, but its hardware is serious business. Powered by the 2nd generation Intel Core i7-2630QM processor with 8-way processing capability, the ROG G74SX-A1 outperforms other notebooks with massive memory bandwidth for ultra-smooth multitasking performance. Featuring Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology, processor speed is automatically adjusted to your needs by accelerating performance for your task at hand. With a host of power profiles, this gaming powerhouse has a built-in overclocking mode via ASUS Power4Gear Hybrid that activates with a simple push of a button located above the keyboard that turns up system performance above its default level. |
Leading Gaming Power for the Next Generation | |
 | The ROG G74SX-A1 features the new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M graphics engine for unprecedented visual performance. With unmatched DirectX 11 support, experience a totally new class of virtual interaction for more dynamic gaming. The ROG G74SX-A1 also features a massive 1.5TB 7200RPM hard drive to store your movies, games, and pictures. Plus, the ROG G74SX-A1 offers 12GB of DDR3 system memory for incredible multitasking capability. |
True-to-life Multimedia | |
 | Featuring a 17.3-inch LED-backlit Full HD display, the ROG G74SX-A1 lets you enjoy the latest in HD playback for an immersive experience with sharp images, smooth video transitions, and brilliant clarity. With HDMI connectivity, turn this gaming powerhouse into your personal media center by connecting to an external monitor or HDTV and enjoy flawless 1080p HD playback. Pair that up with THX + EAX 5.0 3D gaming audio technology, and together they make the ROG G74SX-A1 not only a great gaming notebook, but also a hub for multimedia entertainment. |
Get Comfy | |
 | Gaming is something to be enjoyed, so why not be more comfortable for extended gaming sessions? Fatigue will be a thing of the past, thanks to the ROG G74SX-A1's 5° incline keyboard designed to provide a better ergonomic angle, as well as super comfortable rubber-like palm rests that's easy on the palm and wrist. There's also more space between the keyboard and number pad, so it resembles a desktop keyboard. The harder you work, the more heat you generate. A computer is no different, and with the amount of power in the ROG G74SX-A1, some serious cooling is needed. A unique venting design pulls air from underneath the notebook, cooling the system down, and then vents it through the rear, keeping hot air away from the user and reducing ambient noise for prolonged gaming. |
Stealth and Strength | |
 | Like its predecessor, the G74SX-A1 design was inspired by sharp polygonal shapes, but this time inspiration came from the US Navy's Sea Shadow stealth ship and modern day aircraft carriers. Like the stealth ship, opponents will never know what hit 'em, and like an aircraft carrier, the G74SX-A1 has the firepower to shock and awe the competition. |
