if you wanted several bios updates in order to squeeze every possible frames the ASUS brand is not a primary choice. They make good products, but as soon they release a model, they usually update the drivers during 6 to 12 months and then you feel forgotten. It recent time it happenend with the g73, g74 and now the g75 would be no exception.
I bought the g74, and during the first 6 months, new drivers would be updated, the bios had 3 versions.. then everything just stalled. I bought the asus because of the combo CPU/GPU/AirflowCASE. The rest is not bad, but is NOT VERY GOOD (touchpad, audio, lcd, chipset) It is like ASUS gather a nice pack of these 3 things (CPU / GPU / CASE) and then it started a bid from several manufacturers. Who could supply the rest of the components at the lowest price possible.
If i wanted top edge, bios optimization, so on so on.. i would have bought the MSI gamer edition laptops. Yes you read it correctly, MSI.
I didn't buy the Alienware m17x because at the time there was an audio bug that made the games sound like they were clipping and delayed, and also provoked a lot of latency.. Alienware/Dell took more than 1 year to have that issue solved.
So yes, you are on your own!
PS. the MSI had a better soundcard, a better touchpad and their M/B supported hardware RAID. But the case, oh the case was much hotter!
