Aorus 17H i7-13700H & RTX 4080 Gaming Laptop Review

Synthetic Benchmarks

There’s no doubt about it, this is a very fast system. Actually, looking at the world records for 3DMark, this score is good enough to rank 80th in the world right now. That’s with stock settings and stock cooling. A few tweaks here and there, and it could easily move up the rank. However, I am using the Core i7, and all 100 of those scores use the i9, so this is still very impressive.

Superposition Extreme was flying too, hitting over 10000 is impressive and saw the GPU max out at 78c, which is 2c lower than what I saw in extended gaming sessions, so as noisy as the system can get, the cooling can certainly keep it from throttling.

Again, the PCMark 10 Express score was high as I expected, showing an overall well-balanced system in terms of CPU, CPU, memory and storage speeds.

Cinebench is a real beast for CPU stressing, and with a score of 12777, it’s clear the i7-13700H has little in common with its big desktop CPU brother the i7-13700K. The desktop CPU can pull around 30,000 points in this test, while the lower-power mobile version is less than half that. However, it has fewer performance cores and lower speeds overall, so that’s to be expected. However, fool thee not, as this is still one of the fastest speeds you can hope for on a laptop, and it’s actually on par with an AMD 5800X3D desktop CPU, which we all know is a really really good desktop CPU.
