These are just a few key features that new ASUS G73Sw-XA1 is offering. Yet, the price is still affordable, staying around $1,400 and up. While it’s a powerful gaming computer with all the features you would expect, you still have to remember that it is 17 inches and weighs 8 lbs (including an 8 cell battery) and must be taken as a desktop replacement rather than a portable laptop. If you are planning on traveling a lot, choose a smaller and lighter computer but if you are a regular gamer, it is just the model for you.
