So, down in LA, we checked out NVIDIA's new full desktop grade 980 in a laptop.
It's pretty insane. And if you haven't seen our quick on the spot coverage of
it, click up here because it's pretty great.
The Master Case 5 by Cooler Master gives you the freedom to truly make your
midtower PC case your own with a variety of modular parts and accessories. Click
now to learn more. While we were there, we also got to check out some pretty
greatl looking laptops. And when you pair NVIDIA's design philosophy for this
product of more cooling and not only an unlocked GPU, but an unlocked CPU as
well with the hopes of the user overclocking both of them, that leads to
some really tasty sounding laptops. I'll start with the Clevo. Some of you may be
wondering what Clevo is exactly. Well, if you haven't heard of them, that
doesn't mean you haven't used their laptops. Clevo is an ODM or an original
design manufacturer, meaning that you will find their designs under many other
brands who will make either minor tweaks or even just rebadge them and sell them
as their own. Their main offering here is the P870DM.
This laptop comes equipped with a GTX 980, as you'd probably expect, and a
desktop grade 6700 K along with 16 GB of
RAM and a 1080p G-Sync display all running Windows 10. So basically a
desktop in your backpack. On the lefth hand side, you have a gigabit Ethernet
jack, two USB 3.0 ports, a USBC
Thunderbolt port, an SD MMC slot, and a
USB 3/A combo port. On the back, there
are two full-size display ports, a power jack, and an HDMI port. On the right
hand side, you have a slot for a lock, four 3.5 mm audio jacks, and one USB 3.0
connector. And lastly, on top, you have a very nicely backlit keyboard and a
fingerprint reader for stuff like logging in and encryption. Next up, we
have the Orus X7, which is considerably thinner than the previously mentioned
Clevo for easier transportation experiences. Comes with the same GTX 980
graphics card, but with a Core i7 5700HQ
this time around. Also with 16 GB of RAM, a 1080p screen, and G-Sync
technology built in. All running, oddly enough, Windows 8.1, although you should
be able to pretty easily upgrade. On the lefth hand side of this guy, you've got
two USB 3.0 ports, one HDMI port, one mini DisplayPort, and an SD card
reader. On the back, there's also a USB 2.0 connector, and a power connector
with the right hand side having two 3.0 ports, one HDMI connector, one mini
DisplayPort, and an SD card reader. And last, but not least, we have the MSI
GT72. This gu is closer in thickness to the Clevo than the Orus. It's still
rocking the GTX 980, which is like kind of the whole point, so not too
surprising. a Core i7 6820HK,
16 GB of RAM, and a 1080p G-Sync panel,
all running Windows 10. On the left hand side of this one, there's four USB 3.0
ports, four 3.5 mm audio jacks, and an SD card slot. It also has a party in the
back with power, Ethernet, HDMI, mini DisplayPort, USB type-C, Thunderbolt,
and a security connector all kind of hiding back there behind the screen. On
the right, it has an optical drive, which is actually pretty surprising
these days, and two more USB 3.0 connectors. The top also features a
backlit keyboard and a bunch of settings buttons along with the power button over
kind of on the left hand side. Considering the sheer amount of raw
power in these laptops, I'm pretty excited to see what kind of splash they
make on the market. I ended up playing E Valkyrie on the Clevo, and honestly, the
experience was smoother than a number of demonstration PCs that I've tried it on.
That may speak more to the lack of performance in the demonstration PC than
anything, but still these laptops are packing some power. Just before the end
here, I'm going to throw up some performance graphs, but if you actually do want to see the proper performance of
these laptops, I recommend again checking out the previous video over
here where we actually check out the technology behind the GTX 980, not M
