G701 is also powered by an overclockable Intel Core i7 K-series processor to deliver desktop-grade gaming performance,” Asus says. “Compared to other GeForce GTX 1080 laptops, G701 is remarkably slender at just 32.5mm thin Bio-Armor design with the new ROG Armor Titanium and Plasma Copper color scheme. Extreme performance, exceptional style and enviable portability – G701 has everything you need to dominate at your next LAN party!”
“ROG G701 It is the world’s first laptop with a super-fast 120Hz wide-view panel that supports NVIDIA G-SYNC technology for fast-paced games,” Asus adds. “G701 features NVIDIA G-SYNC display technology which synchronizes its display’s refresh rate with its graphics card for ultra-smooth visuals. G-SYNC helps avoid lag, minimizes frame-rate stutter, and eliminates visual tearing. It delivers the smoothest and fastest gaming graphics — all without affecting system performance!”
