Asus 4K Notebook

I recently bought this to replace the aging HDD in my Asus G73JW notebook (almost 9 years old). This drive is just as amazing as you would think it should be. I went from booting WIN10 in roughtly 2-3 minutes to about 30s. Thirty three seconds to be exact, from power on to the WIN10 login screen. One minute after that all of my background apps are loaded.

I purchased to connect with HD 4K TV that I recently purchased. I was so excited that I no longer have to cast from iPhone or NoteBook things like Pandora, NetFlix, or Amazon Video. And it came with some preloaded Apps that I did not know existed.

I purchased this cord to connect my New Mac Pro (2014) to connect to my New Asus 4k Monitor. It works fine!

I have used the ASUS ROG STRIX 32 4K HDR 160 Hz Gaming Monitor for over three months now and I still love it the way I did day one. This ASUS monitor replaced a low-end Samsung 27 monitor that I have had for a long time. Before the Samsung monitor, I had one of the first Gateway 1080P 27 monitors (which was a great gaming monitor in its day). I now wanted a new monitor to replace my Samsung due to my recent computer upgrade (which will easily go to 4K resolution with my new 4070TI Nvidia video card) during the Christmas holidays. I saw the ASUS (and I am a big ASUS fan) here on B&H, researched a little, and decided to pull the trigger on the purchase. I was not disappointed at all, even though the price was a little steeper than what I was looking to spend. This ASUS monitor is very fast, and the colors are vibrant and true. Its stand is one of the best that I have seen and owned. The on-screen menu is very informative with the availability of a few tweaks and features not found on other monitors in this class. If you are into digital creation, this should be one of the monitors for you to consider. Lastly, with an industry leading 2-year warranty from ASUS (register it at ASUS to be sure you are in the system), you can't go wrong if you are in the market looking for a higher quality 32 4K monitor. You can buy the latest PC build, but don't hesitate to upgrade what matters most, the screen on which you work/play. I would definitely buy another one of these ... if I only had room on my desk. Maybe a desk upgrade is in my future ...

I had been using two 27 4K ASUS monitors to process photos and could never understand why despite all my efforts, including routine calibrations, my prints always came out much different shades than what I saw on the screen. Since installing my new BenQ SW321 monitor my prints, screen and camera images are nearly identical and now I'm wasting a lot less ink and paper. The monitor is sharp and as importantly the colors are true. Not the cheapest monitor on the market but you get what you pay for and this monitor is excellent!

Most important!! If you have a 4k display like the Sharp or Asus make sure you buy a display port 1.2 to mini display port cable/ adapter in order to run 60hz Opening the box for the first time, I noticed how heavy it is, talking about around 12 Ib but its not about the weight of this thing but the size of it. I have to say this thing is a piece of engineering, how could Apple fit so much power under this small tin can!!. Funny that i got compliments around the place that this thing looks like a luxurious trash can hahaha yes it is a compliment, no one would understand what this thing really is!? Removing the plastic wrap covering the outer shell, showed how sext this thing is. Adding the glossy black finish makes this thing delicious hehe if you know what I mean, it is a prone to finger prints but to be honest I didn't notice any because of the dark black color. What is inside is pure art, the video card, RAM, SSD, everything is neatly placed for our viewing pleasure. The RAM is user upgradable very easily done indeed.

Holds everything I need for the notebook,

Used with a small notebook. Easily transfer from PC TO Notebook.

I bought this 2T SSD along with the ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Card V2. I needed a larger edit drive for 4K and 5.7K video. At 3,500Mbs it made the frame rate while rendering 4K just about double. Went from 35 FPS to 75 FPS. The ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Card V2 can hold 4 of these drives for future expansion.

Excelent notebook
