Asus G51J-3D is the first laptop to incorporate Nvidia’s 3D vision technology, which catches up with the trend of Avatar. And Asus G51J-3D must be popular in 2010, if you want to get a new laptop in this year, you shoule know something about this Asus G51J-3D:

Specification:

Supported flash memory cards Memory Stick, MultiMediaCard, SD Memory Card, SmartMedia Card, xD-Picture Card, Memory Stick Duo, Memory Stick Pro

Keyboard:

Typical for an Asus gaming laptop, the G51J-3D features a black, matte/glossy design with a few gamer-friendly graphical touches on the lid. It’s big and bulky for a mainstream-size laptop.The matte keyboard has large, flat-topped keys, and manages to squeeze in a separate number pad, although the number pad keys are narrow. Its large touch pad, while decent, isn’t of much use in gaming (3D or otherwise), for which you’ll typically hook up a separate USB mouse.

Display:
The 15.6-inch display is both the system’s best and worst feature. As a 120Hz LED backlit LCD, it can display the twin images required for 3D, and we’ll no doubt see more of these in the near future. Unfortunately, the screen has a low 1,366×768-pixel resolution, which is increasingly common for 11-inch Netbooks, but not high-end gaming rigs.
While playing 3D games, the display works well, although you might want to turn the brightness level up (video look darker viewed though the sunglass-like 3D specs). However, when not using the Nvidia 3D technology the screen’s low resolution is noticeable, and it detracts from general Web surfing and media playback.

3D technology:

Asus G51J-3D supports NVIDIA (English Hill & Knowlton) 3D technology, providing users with ultra-realistic 3D graphics effects; On the other hand, GPU drivers and 120Hz, 3D panels can render 2 times for each scene, offering 60 frame images for each eye, which is equivalent to provide a total of up to 120 images. Players can be completely immersed in the vivid 3D gaming world, from the 2D flat markedly before the world. In addition, with a wide range of infrared transmitter and a pair of special 3D glasses, usrs can enjoy the clarity, brightness and depth of high-resolution three-dimensional images, and there is no restriction at any angle.

Audio technology
Besides, Asus G51J-3D is equipped with EAX ADVANCED HD 4.0 surround sound audio technology and CMSS software, which not only adds 64 kinds of sound effects in the games, but also choose the different 3D gaming sound according to the games. Asus G51J-3D provides 3D gaming and multimedia audio experience that other laptops can not compete with.

Users’ view:
Pros: Built-in Nvidia 3D Vision technology; fast Intel Core i7 CPU; decent gaming performance.
Con: Expensive; 3D gaming is still niche; small screen for a gaming rig.
