Looking At One Of The Smallest Gaming Laptops
Since the times laptops arrived on the international market, big bulky suitcase type models which took around 10 minutes to boot up, had limited memory and weighed around 10kgs, there has always been a constant flow of technology towards making the marvel of invention smaller, faster and lighter. This resulted in the modern generation laptops which are so fast, small and light that they never fail to amaze people. With the age of gaming upon us, high end laptops that could support high end games started being designed and again the onus was on making these laptops smaller and faster.
A gaming laptop is nothing abnormal or alien. On the outside it is just another normal looking laptop. It is what is inside that blows your mind off. A gaming laptop is specifically designed with a very high amount of RAM memory and a state of the art graphics card. These laptops are designed to support games which require unreal amount of graphics to run. Earlier laptops were just considered as additional support to PC's using which users could carry information personally and manage work on the go. Over time this notion changed to one of individuality, where laptops now are used as individual units and often in place of PC's.
Broaching the topic of small gaming laptops one of the smallest and powerful gaming laptops available in the market today is the ASUS G1 notebook. It is marketed mainly as a gaming notebook and users may be interested by what it offers in terms of technology. With physical dimensions of just 13.9 x 11.1 x 1.3 inches and weighing slightly over 3KGs makes it one of the smallest gaming laptops there is. The fun doesn't stop here. This notebook boasts of a 15.4" screen and its metallic finish and green silver strips make it a sight to behold.
But don't just go by the looks alone. This notebook had technology inside that would put to shame many other high class notebooks out there. 4 USB ports, ports for Ethernet and LAN and dual layer DVD writer is just the beginning. A 5400 rpm hard drive and a T5600 processor running at 1.8 GHz with a 1 GB RAM and a 160 GB hard drive define this monster accurately. User friendly ASUS have also pitched in with a 1.3 Megapixel web camera. Being a gaming notebook, ASUS uses the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7700 sharing up to 512 MB RAM with your processor, thus running any game on earth and supporting screen resolutions of more than 1600 x 1200 with full graphics. The use of ASUS Splendid technology for the screen makes the colours stand out and also prevents reflection off the screen. The G1 also has a springy keyboard and labeled 'W A S D' keys on the keyboard as most gamers use that key configuration while playing games. Added to all that is the nice touchpad and media buttons added to the palm rest for ease of use. Overall the G1 notebook performs powerfully in the graphics and memory department is a very good gaming laptop which could very well double up as a normal one.
