Gaming laptop - Aorus X7

[TeaLeaf]

This seems to be a pretty decent new entrant into the market, the Aorus X7.

.....and check out how slim that thing is, just 22.9mm!

And the cost?

No idea, it was debuted at ces. so prices are TBC, but for a dual GPU sli system with those specs it looks stunning for such a small chassis.  My last XPS was almost 6kg, so that sort of package is pretty impressive.   I'm interested as I'll probably replace my current laptop sometime this year and I'll be looking for a more gaming focused laptop then the multimedia one that I currently have.

Best hope it's not a "if you have to ask you can't afford it" type price then

Seems that dual 765 sli setup might be approximately equivalent to a single 780, presumably chosen for easier cooling in that thin case. Very nice and tempting, but given the (perceived? Actual?) increase in high end gaming laptops, I can't help but wonder what next gen cards will hold for mobile...

Actually, to be completely fair, I'll probably end up going for a 6kg laptop again simply because it will be cheaper than an 'ultrabook' version! :roflmao:

On sale at OC for £1659.95.

I am opening the 'get Tox this laptop' fund this afternoon if you'd all like to donate...

I have to say that's less than I was expecting it to retail for - I figured it would be well over £2k.
