Intel’s® 2nd generation Core™ i3/i5/i7 for an even faster notebook.

the G73SW is ready for anything that you throw at it,
from office applications to video encoding and gaming.

thrilling adventures, high productivity and memorable moments.

|
Power through any Challenge
|
Nothing fazes the G73SW – it runs the latest releases in high detail, no
more watered down versions. This beast has 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i7 processors
that handle all comers with on demand over clocking through Turbo Boost,
hurtling CPU speeds up to 3.33GHz. All it takes is one key press and
extra power becomes available. |
|
|
| |
|
Stylish Supremacy
|
Inspired by the F117 stealth bomber, the
matte-finished G73SW is an ergonomic feast of gamer-centric features – a
huge keyboard that lights up for night time ops and can be turned off
instantly for stealth, ample hand rest real estate and rubberized
surface areas for comfort during prolonged sessions. |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
|
Unsurpassed Hardware Package
|
Up to two Hard Drives and Memory goes up to a formidable 8GB – games run
smoothly and relentlessly since nothing needs to be left out. The new
G73SW signifies a move towards uncompromised notebooks, so we packed it
to the gills with hardware. |
|
|
| |
|
Ready for Take Off
|
Twin rear exhausts draw heat away from the action with some of the best
cooling around. This afterburner effect doesn’t come with a noise
penalty – G73SW is a formidable performer, but it’s deadly silent. |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
|
Always Cool
|
With its eye-catching design, the G73SW deploys unique cooling and noise dampening,
with two huge rear venting exhausts that push both heat and noise away from users.
This results in a cool and quiet environment. |
|
|
| |
|
Comfort first
|
The ergonomic illuminated keyboard sits at a 5 degree angle to increase usability even during long gaming sessions,
plus surfaces come wrapped in a rubberized material for even greater ease of use. |
|

|
View to a Thrill
|
|
Visuals look awesome on the 17.3” full HD screen, and made even better
by the nVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M with 1.5GB GDDR5 – an overkill GPU taking
notebook gaming beyond the edge so you no longer have to switch graphic
details off in options menus. G73SW is 100% DX11 compliant – offering
all the benefits of the latest graphics standard. Future proofing never
had this much firepower. Even the built-in camera rises above the norm –
offering 2 Megapixels so gamers can stay in visual contact with one
another in style. |
|
|
| |
|
Gorgeous graphics
|
The G73SW utilizes the brand new NVIDIA GTX 460M with a massive 1.5GB GDDR5. Based on Fermi technology,
this new graphics processor offers native DirectX11 for a huge graphics gain in high definition gaming,
plus dedicated video acceleration.
Bundled with the G73SW is 3DTV Play from NVIDIA, which projects the high definition graphics of this notebook onto any compatible 3DTV via HDMI 1.4.
This includes 3D video, games and photos, taking the experience into the living room. |

New dimensions
|
|
Powerful hardware creates a perfect platform for lifelike 3D* in games and movies.
Crystal clear LCD panels and powerful graphics give this gaming notebook the ability to run 3D in 120 frames per second through NVIDIA 3D Vision,
active shutter glasses and high speed embedded 3D emitters. |
|
|
| |
|
Awesome audio: Sounds like Domination
|
EAX and THX surround audio boosts game enjoyment and immersion with realistic effects and enveloping sound, while redefining sonic performance in music and movies.
G73SW Series gamers get the upper hand thanks to EAX 5.0 3D surround that makes
every morsel of audio come to life in vivid detail for complete spatial
awareness. Great gaming deserves great sound – not the tinny output
other notebooks have. |

The USB 3.0 is 10X Faster Then USB 2.0 |
|
USB 3.0 is another new addition to the range, enabling data transfers
that are up to ten times faster than USB 2.0. USB 3.0 is fully
backward compatible, so you can be assured that all of your existing
USB devices can still be used. And while transferring massive
content and large files in mere seconds is a plus, USB 3.0 is also
good for the environment, since it charges devices much faster than
USB 2.0, requiring less power to do so. |

PLENTY OF STORAGE
|
Standard 500GB 7,200 RPM w/SSD hybrid hard drive with one bay open for further
upgrade. Or, put a Solid State hard drive in as your primary with your
Operating System and all of your applications loaded, and use the 750GB
drive for storage. |
