The New ASUS G Series-Taking Gaming to the Next Level The 16-inch ASUS G60J is the definitive notebook for today's adrenaline-filled world of cyber-gaming. It delivers stunning 3D performance via an Intel Core i7 processor and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M graphics card with 1GB VRAM, together achieving an incredible 3DMark 2006 score of well over 11,000. The G60J also features Turbo Boost technology which super-charges CPU performance. These features are complemented by Altec Lansing speakers and EAX Advanced HD 4.0 which provides an immersive gaming audio experience by adding 64 sound effects to supported games. CMSS-3D further enhances the overall experience by channelling sound above and around the user for the full surround sound experience.

For users seeking the G60J's comprehensive features in a more compact form factor, ASUS also offers the 15.6-inch G51J.

Users can create playlists, modify pictures and watch movies and videos effortlessly. The ASUS M60J's palm-rest and lid are decked in exquisite satin-brushed aluminium created by Infusion technology, making it incredibly resilient against the scratches and abrasions resulting from day-to-day computing. Lastly, the ASUS M60J sports the red dot design award-winning Chocolate Keyboard which features concave key-caps, and tighter key-spacing to minimise dust accumulation and improve water resistance.

Any pricing details? I'm guessing 1300-1600?

Should be a killer notebook if it can stay cool. I would like to know the cooling methods on this one.

Will it melt first or the battery catch fire, place your bets lol

Nice to see the technology make it to laptops, but the TDP for a laptop is high IMO, also, if any of these I7's ship with integrated intel graphics then your paying big money for something that will be handicapped in a lot of areas (games, hd decode, etc)

I wonder how long this would last on a battery anyway...hmmm

Absolutely no i7's w/IGP!!!!! BAD IGP!!! BAD!

I'm sure Asus markets these as Desktop replacements and notes the battery life of an hour, let me know if you get that though cause I'm sure it's marketed up.

Good of them to take such well-angled pics. Note how the laptop is about twice as thick right where the HSF assembly comes into play. And do they even have a battery installed in that thing? Six cells won't take an i7 very far, but any more than that puts you in "double stuff" territory.

Once again, I'd stick with a Core 2 Duo. This isn't about AMD so much as it is about pushing impractical, high-margin products on a market which doesn't need and doesn't want them.
