our coverage of computex 2017 is brought to you by the Corsair 1 and Synergy
check them out at the link in the video description so my initial plan for the
Gigabyte Suite was pretty straightforward drop by check out the
x299 boards and then GTFO then I saw this thing this is not
the thinnest GTX 1080 gaming notebook
that's here at the show both ASUS and
Acer actually have thinner ones but gigabytes approach to VI's Max Q design
technology that they announced here in my opinion is a little bit better Balan
so yes inside this device is a
fully-fledged GTX 1080 8 gig GDDR 5x
overclockable graphics card and while you might not be that impressed cuz it
is about a half a cimeter thicker than ASUS's design in my opinion they've made
fewer gross tradeoffs than both of the
other guys with a touchpad that's in a normal location and a massive 94w hour
battery not to mention that the rest of the specs are looking pretty balls to
the wall as well it's got a great mix of IO with support for up to three external
4K displays it's got four full-size USB
ports in addition to a type-c and a
Thunderbolt 3 Port it's got HDMI out it's got an SD card reader and Hardline
networking making it suitable for work station use and that's not all that
makes it suitable for workstation use the 4K display might not be high refresh
rate which I would prefer but it's panone certified it's got a number pad
it's got programmable macro keys and the
whole keyboard is RGB backlit with a nice feeling touchpad that I wish was a
little bit more responsive feeling but these are small complaints because when
you open this thing up it has absolutely got it where it counts to go along with
the overclockable graphics card they've got an overclockable core i7 7820hk quad
core up to 64 GB of ddr4 memory and you
can even swap them yourself because they're sodum based they've got two m.2
slots with support for raid zero in addition to a 2 and 1/2 in Drive Bay and
they are rocking a massive 94w hour
battery so that extra half a cm is
really being put to good use now you
aren't going to get this for cheap it's going to cost over
$3,000 but so far this is looking like
the best balanced thin GTX 1080 notebook
that I've seen it might seem a little cludy that you got this little kickstand
thing to get a little bit of extra cooling but in my opinion it actually
feels less flimsy than as's vent that
opens up when you flip open the
display so thanks for watching and a huge shout out to Synergy for allowing
