Product Description
Hail to the King! The world of portable gaming has a new reigning king. The G74SX is a performance notebook that imposes its will with the combined power of a second generation Intel Core i7 CPU and nVIDIA GTX 560M GPU with 3GB of 192-bit GDDR5 VRAM. A score of P2008 in 3DMark11 and P9180 in 3DMark Vantage makes this one of the fastest notebooks in the land. Support for DirectX 11 ensures that you'll not only have the one of the fastest rigs in town, but also the ability to play games as they were meant to be seen for a long time. The G74SX is great for gaming, but its hardware is serious business. It offers the one of the best 3D ecosystems for PCs, offering 3D content creation and editing. There's also the ability to output the G74SX to a 3D TV, so you can enjoy 3D entertainment from the living room. Pair that up with THX TruStudio and EAX 5.0 3D gaming audio technology, and together they make the G74 not only a great gaming notebook, but also a hub for multimedia entertainment.

I have made a detailed review of G74SX-91131Z by updating over an extended period and you may like to read that review (first review date 17 Sep 2011).
This model and the G74SX-91131Z only differ by some add-on features such as:
- RAM (8GB/12GB/16GB);
- Windows 7 Edition (Ultimate vs Home Premium);
- Processor speed grade difference (2 GHz CPU for all G74SX except model G74SX-91234Z with slight CPU speed increase to 2.2GHz);
- Display resolution (all G7SX are full HD at 1920x1080 resolution except model 74SX-91013Z with reduced resolution at 1600x900);
- 74SX-91013Z model also has a reduced HDD RPM to 5400 (7200 for the rest), reduced RAM clock rate to 1066 MHz (1333 MHz for the rest);
otherwise the base system is almost identical including the graphics system.
