Asus Bloatware

[matthewjbarnard]

I just purchased a new Asus G53SW notebook and I'm excited to get started but first I would like to clean up some of the bloatware.

Is it better to clean it up with the various available tools (Decrapifier, CCleaner, etc.) or to do a fresh install of Windows 7?

Essentially: is there anything on there I would actually want?

It's easiest just to do a fresh install of W7. If there is anything that you later find out you want or need, it should be available on Asus' support site.
