ASUS G73Jh: Today's Top Gaming Laptop
by Jarred Walton on April 17, 2010 2:25 AM ESTG73Jh: 3DMark Results
For those of you that like to compare 3DMark scores, we offer the following charts. We've left out most of the other recently reviewed notebooks and laptops, as they simply can't compete—and aren't designed to compete—with the G73Jh. However, we do have results from the Acer 5740G and the Alienware M11x to keep things in perspective.
Unlike the gaming results we saw on the last couple of pages, the 3DMark scores make the G73Jh look more like it has slightly lower performance relative to NVIDIA's GTX 280M. Vanage using the Performance defaults is the exception, and it correlates better with what we saw in the gaming results. And now you know why we place a lot more weight on the games instead of a synthetic benchmark. As we've said on numerous occasions, 3DMark at best is a good indication of how well 3DMark runs on any given system; some games may show similar results, but it is by no means a substitute for real gaming tests.

Comparing the G73JH with the Qosmio Q888Both have 1920x1080 full HD displays but the Qosmio has a larger screen at 18.4'.
Maybe a little lower on RAM (4GB), HDD (500GB) and GPU (Gefore GTS 360M) but also advances with the i7 740 QM processor and the Bluray.
They are both about the same price and differ slightly in specs. But I heard it had alot of heat issues, what would you say about that?
And for gaming would the difference between them be that much of a difference?
