Computex 2014: AORUS are really flexing their abilities this year, having just released their updated SLI gaming laptop the X7. Fitted with a 17.3″ 1080p display, 2 x Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M GDDR5 8GB graphics cards in SLI configuration, which allow for a 3 display 5760 x 1080 video output, three 512GB mSATA SSD’s and a 2TB hard drive, up to 32GB of DDR3L-1866 RAM and an Intel 4th Gen i7. Overall this is one incredibly powerful gaming machine, and while it may be a laptop, it’ll put most peoples desktops to shame, and it only weights in at 0.9inch and 6.6 lbs.
Next up we have their much more compact 13.9″ QHD+ gaming laptop, the X3 Plus. With a single GTX 870M GDDR5 6GB, dual M.2 512GB SSD’s and a 4th gen i7 CPU. Very powerful, light and slim, but of course the downside is that both of these systems will no doubt be expensive.
Prices will vary per region, but expect to pay a premium for this level of performance. Both systems should be available at many major retailers shortly.
