ASUS ROG Strix GL702VT 17.3in Gaming Notebook Review

Grand Theft Auto V is an action-adventure game played from either a first-person or third-person view. Players complete missions—linear scenarios with set objectives—to progress through the story. Outside of missions, players may freely roam the open world. Composed of the San Andreas open countryside area and the fictional city of Los Santos, the world is much larger in area than earlier entries in the series. It may be fully explored after the game’s beginning without restriction, although story progress unlocks more gameplay content.

We used a 1920 x 1080 resolution and the Grand Theft Auto V built-in benchmark set to maximum possible quality settings to offer an intense challenge for the gaming hardware while also making playable frame rates a possibility. However, the GTX970M's 3GB of memory meant we couldn't set absolutely every setting to Very High, and had to leave a couple of them on merely High.

Like the MSI GS40, the ASUS GL702VT can just about handle GTA V at the best quality its memory will allow, which is another reassuring result for contemporary gaming on this notebook.

  1. I earn close to $6.000-$8.000 /every month from freelancing online. For those of you who are looking to do basic freelance jobs for 2-5 h /day from your house and earn solid paycheck while doing it… Try this gig FAVE.CO/20SR7Wt

  2. Seriously how can you make a gaming laptop in this day and age without an SSD? With current prices it’s not that hard to give 128 or even 256GB of space. I’ll bet a lot of gamers would prefer the massive performance increase over the extra space; I know I would.

  3. I have a Dell XPS with a 512GB SSD and 960m. Work paid for it. Worth every penny haha.

    I tried MGSV on it earlier and it ran at fairly high settings with an issue. No throttling or anything

  4. I am earning about $6,000-$8,000 on monthly basis online. Those who are prepared to work basic at home jobs for 2-5 h every day from your couch at home and get valuable income for doing it… Then this work is for you… FAVE.CO/20SQZ9r

  5. IKR! I bought last year an Alienware 17 and immediately swapped the 1TB hard drive with a 256GB SSD like on the same week and no regrets! The performance gains are amazing and its only a Crucial MX100 which is working good, a little underrated one.

  6. After the bad experience that I had with Asus after sales support regarding my venerable Asus G74sx, I will never buy another Asus laptop like ever.
