Gaming Just Got Real — Introducing the ASUS G51J 3D Gaming Notebook

ASUS Launches the World’s First Notebook Utilising NVIDIA® 3D Vision
for Truly Immersive Gaming 

Sydney, Australia, 18 November 2009 – The new ASUS G51J 3D is designed to deliver a truly immersive 3D gaming and multimedia experience to gamers everywhere, with NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ and specially designed 3D glasses. The ASUS G51J 3D sports an NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 260M with 1GB DDR3 video memory, to deliver adrenaline-pumping, edge-of-your-seat visuals anytime, anywhere. EAX and CMSS audio technology further enhances in-game immersion, delivering crystal clear sound and compelling environment audio effects through Altec Lansing® speakers. Powered by an Intel® Core™ i7 processor and 64-bit Windows® 7 operating system, the ASUS G51J 3D is the weapon of choice for serious gamers. 

Immersive Gaming: Bridging the Gap between the Virtual and Reality

Equipped with NVIDIA® 3D Vision™, the ASUS G51J 3D delivers ultra-realistic graphics that come to life before the user. A pair of 3D Vision™ active-shutter glasses coupled with a wide-range infra-red emitter, deliver stereoscopic images with clarity, brightness and depth-of-field at full resolution without any viewing angle restrictions. The GPU driver and a 120Hz 3D panel render each scene twice, delivering up to 60 images evenly to each eye. With up to 400 PC games that work out-of-the-box with 3D Vision, gamers can experience a whole new dimension of gaming never-before seen, with recently released games such as Resident Evil® 5, Borderlands™, World of Warcraft®: Wrath of the Lich King™, Batman®: Arkham Asylum™ and Star Trek® D-A-C. 

“NVIDIA® is excited about the world’s first 3D Vision notebook coming from ASUS,” said Phil Eisler, General Manager of 3D Vision business unit at NVIDIA®. “The ASUS G51J 3D notebook will set the standard by which gaming and 3D notebooks will be judged. Congratulations to ASUS for achieving this monumental milestone!” 

Complementing the immersive visual effects is EAX Advanced HD 4.0 3D audio technology and CMSS surround sound. EAX Advanced HD 4.0 audio technology enhances in-game environments and scenarios by providing corresponding three dimensional sound effects. It can provide up to 64 additional sound effects from its sound library and produces ultra-realistic spatial effects for more than 300 supported games. Together with high fidelity Altec Lansing® speakers, the ASUS G51J 3D delivers a gaming and multimedia audio experience that no other notebook can match. 

A Juggernaut of Power: Multitasking and Gaming Performance 

The ASUS G51J 3D is powered by the latest Intel® Core™ i7 mobile processor for powerful performance. It allows users to launch multiple applications and enjoy high definition multimedia and processor-intensive games effortlessly. 

Set to Stun: Mind-blowing Graphics at Incredible Speeds

The main area of concern for any self-respecting gamer when it comes to a gaming notebook is graphics and the ASUS G51J 3D is designed specifically to meet and exceed expectations of a gaming notebook. ASUS engineers have circumvented the thermal and placement issues that typically could arise from fitting the NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 260M into a 15.6-inch notebook. The ASUS G51J 3D achieved a 3DMark®06 score over 11,000*; a significant increase from other 15-inch to 16-inch notebooks in the market today.
