This week, the biggest names in consumer electronics are descending
upon Berlin to show off the devices we’ll be fawning over for the year
to come at IFA 2015. Taiwanese firm Asus is in attendance, and has
brought a bevy of new products spanning several different branches of
the tech world.

Asus teased plans for a brand new flagship gaming laptop to join its
other ROG products. Called the GX700, the 17-inch system will offer a 4K
display, overclockable Intel K-Series mobile processors, Nvidia GeForce
GTX graphics and a water-cooling system to keep everything cool. As
seen in pictures, this is a rather bizarre looking laptop that seems to
have an extremely large radiator sticking out of the back, suggesting
that it won’t be a particularly mobile computer. Still, it’s awesome to
see an entirely new, unique design in the notebook world. Asus did not
announce the price or quote specifications.

The company did get specific about its refresh of the G751, appropriately called the G752. This 17-inch notebook will be equipped with Skylake quad-core processors (the
Core i7-6700HQ, to be specific), Windows 10, and will be offered in
several different configurations to satisfy the needs of the hardcore
gamer. The entry-level version will have a GTX 965M and a 1080p display,
while the step-up version will have a GTX 970M with the same screen.
The most powerful version will include a GTX 980M and have an optional
4K panel. All the display options support Nvidia’s G-Sync, as well. Hard drive options include M.2 solid state drives, and RAM support reaches as high as 64GB.
The company is also making moves to carve out some of the growing
market for stick PCs. The Asus VivoStick weighs just 70g, but features
2GB of memory, 32GB of storage, two USB inputs and a HDMI port. It’s
also based on Intel’s newer Cherry Trail low-power platform, which
promises quicker performance than its predecessor, found in the current Compute Stick.
Priced at $129, this could be a serious contender to the raft of
similar devices that have been announced in recent months, but Asus
hasn’t provided a release date.
