The ASUS ROG G752 laptop was not only a looker, it was a superb performer. But back then you were limited to the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M, which may have been lacking for some of the more hardcore enthusiasts. Well now they can get a laptop truly worthy of enthusiasts as ASUS has the G752VS in the pipeline, with a new mobile Pascal-based NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GPU, no less.

The upcoming ASUS ROG G752VS is only confirmed for European markets, but we are pretty sure that we will get this sweet beast of a gaming notebook here as well. For the lowest end variant which will pack a Full HD (1920×1080) IPS panel with native G-Sync support, Intel Core i7-6700HQ, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, 1TB HDD spinning at 7200rpm, 88Wh 8-cell battery pack and, of course, NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1070 for notebooks, with 8GB of GDDR5 VRAM, be prepared to part with €2 000 (~RM8923.29).

If these aren’t enough for you, rest assured as ASUS has you covered with a range of configurations with the most expensive variant which is expected to cost you a whopping €2 800 (~RM12492.61). It will come with 32GB of RAM, 512GB PCIe M.2 storage and a 4K IPS display with G-Sync technology. The 4K screen may still be a little too overkill when paired with the new mobile GTX 1070 as even the desktop GTX 1080 isn’t really that great at pushing 4K resolutions.

All configurations of the ASUS ROG G752VS will include the Core i7-6700HQ CPU paired with GTX 1070 and the only changes are in the screen, storage, and memory setups.

Pokdepinion: We have heard of the full desktop GTX 1080 most probably making its way into the upgraded version of the GX700, the GX800, so a mobile GTX 1070 in the ROG G752 is not surprising. I wonder if NVIDIA’s Pascal architecture marks the end of an era where mobile GPUs are slower by orders of magnitude.
