The N76VZ-DS71 17.3" Laptop Computer (Black) from ASUS features a sleek hairline-textured metallic design that is sure to turn heads. The precision-etched hairline cover offers added accentuation with an illuminated ASUS logo. This ASUS notebook also has a ripple-effect speaker mesh, which imbues an elegant look to complement the deluxe audio offered through Bang & Olufsen ICEpower speakers and SonicMaster technology.
The 17.3" widescreen display is backlit with LED lamps, which brighten faster, use less power and provide better picture quality than their CCFL counterparts. The screen has a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is also the standard for HDTVs. The Full HD 1920 x 1080 native resolution is supported by a nVIDIA GeForce GT 650M graphics card with 2GB of dedicated memory.
The system is powered by a quad-core 2.3GHz Intel Core i7-3610QM processor. It also has 8GB of DDR3 RAM, dual 500GB hard drives, a Blu-ray player with DVD and Blu-ray burning capabilities, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, an integrated webcam and microphone.
