need 4K on such a small display is a debate for another day , but right now it is a comforting that ASUS is aware of the performance issues one might be exposing themselves to with the 4K model without some sort of performance levelling technology .
There ’ s about a ton more feature on this notebook which I ’ ve not mentioned but rest assured that it ’ s precisely what the product page is for and you may view that by clicking the link in the review title or here .
Do keep in mind , for those who prefer to travel light , the GX700 may pose some challenges as it is a big and weighty notebook . It isn ’ t one that will necessarily sit well in a back pack and even when it does , that ’ s a fair amount of weight to be carrying with you even before the power brick and other accessories . If you do want take this on the road without the suitcase , then you should look into a quality backpack with lumber support .
In closing , the GX700 and probably the GX800 as well , represent what is possible with a no holds barred approach to making the ultimate desktop replacement - portable computer . Not many vendors would attempt such a project , but ASUS ROG has done this and they have done a pretty fine job at it too . Just out of sheer respect for the minerals it takes to bring something like this to market , the GX700 rightfully deserves its hardware award , I ’ m thoroughly impressed .
