Good performance, but gets hot. 03/02/2011
This review is from: ASUS Laptop N61 Series Intel Core i7-720QM 4GB Memory 320GB HDD ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 16.0" Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit N61JQ-X1
Pros:
-It's much cheaper now than it was when I bought it.
-Good performance.
-Screen is generally good, and fine at different viewing angles.
-USB 3.0, though I haven't used it yet.
-It's not actually that heavy.
Cons:
-Surface scratches pretty easily.
I'm not sure if this happens with all the notebooks or if it's just me, but starting around 6 month after I bought it it began to overheat. This laptop now sports hellish temperatures, if I put around 50 percent stress on the CPU it shoots up to 97 degrees celcius, and this is with a twin fan laptop cooler. Any more than that and it shuts off.
Overall Review:
It's good, but you'd better wish that your laptop doesn't get these overheating problems
