What parts to Max Out my G50VT-X1 Asus?
Hi I recently bought an Asus G50VT-X1 and I want to COMPLETELY max out its performance at any price.
Current G50VT-X1 Specs (modified from notebookreview.com specs)
Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P7450 (2.13GHz, 1066MHz FSB, 3MB L2 cache)
NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GS with 512MB of GDDR3 discrete video memory
15.6” WXGA Glossy LCD (1366x768)
Microsoft Windows Enterprise Edition 64-bit SP1
4GB RAM (4096MB) DDR2 (2 x 2048MB modules) 667mhz SO-DIMM
***Max of 8GB (despite official 4gb max, asus has told me 8 is supported)
320GB 7200RPM Seagate HD (2 total SATA ports available)
---How do you transfer the OS to another HDD without reinstall by disc?
8x Multi-Format Dual Layer DVDRW with LightScribeTechnology
Integrated 1.3 Megapixel Web Cam
6-Cell 11.1v 4800mAh battery, 120w power supply (Like only 5 minutes off AC power life... )
I am willing to go to most measures to upgrade these components / get pro to install them as long as they can be done safely.
Experimental suggestions are welcome too!!!!!
Links are greatly appreciated as well as full specs and full model id.
I want to optimize the computer in EVERY WAY however, I use it mostly for gaming.
I dont want suggestions for accesories like mice and cooling fans, ect, just internal hardware :)
Oh and If you know any OS's I can run alongside Win7 thatd be great besides ubuntu/linux os's... A relatively easy Hackintosh tutorial would be awesome too!!!
Ill get a max of a 1TB HDD and a like medium sized SSD. Both fast please.
Thanks SevenForums!
Ill give REP for helpful answers!
