Is the G752VT still worth buying?

It suits budget desktop-replacement gaming and everyday work, but its Skylake CPU and older GPU struggle with the newest demanding titles. Buy it for the big screen and upgradeability, not for top frame rates.

Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?

Yes. It ships with 16 GB and supports up to 64 GB, and it has both SSD and hard drive bays, so storage can be expanded.

How is the battery life?

About 4 hours of light use, and much less while gaming. Treat it as a laptop that stays plugged in most of the time.

Is the screen good for gaming?

It is a 17.3-inch matte 1080p panel at 60Hz. It is sharp and glare-free, but it lacks the high refresh rates found on newer gaming laptops.

What ports does it have?

USB-C, HDMI and Ethernet, plus the usual USB ports, so external monitors and wired networking work without adapters.

How heavy is it to carry?

It weighs 9.5 lb, so it is best left on a desk. Commuting with it daily is uncomfortable.

About the ASUS ROG G752VT-RH71 17.3" Gaming Laptop i7-6700HQ

The ROG G752VT is ASUS's 17.3-inch gaming laptop from the Skylake era, built around an Intel Core i7-6700HQ and NVIDIA GTX 970M-class graphics with 16 GB of RAM. Its signature feature is a rear-exhaust cooling design that pushes heat and noise away from the keyboard, plus a backlit keyboard and a matte 1080p screen. It suits gamers who want a large desktop-replacement machine and don't plan to carry it far: at 9.5 lb it is firmly a stay-at-home laptop. Against slimmer 15-inch rivals it offers more screen and easier upgrades (RAM to 64 GB, plus SSD and hard drive bays), but it is heavier and its 60Hz panel and older CPU trail newer gaming laptops.
