Aorus 17 Detailed Review & Benchmarks (Nvidia RTX 2080)

[@cosmic_gate476]

Just heard of this laptop for the first time, convenient thing you uploaded this right now

[@GenTechPC]

Looks like Gigabyte's marketing team needs to work harder...

[@cosmic_gate476]

@@GenTechPC Nah reaching me would be a waste as I watch from a tech enthusiast perspective - I have a desktop but would never buy a gaming laptop because that would be too distracting from work. Cool to see what they can fit in one though since only a few years ago they completely sucked

[@92OnTV]

Another laptop, that I can't have ever.

[@veer98667706488]

You sir have a very good marketing voice. Calm and clear.

[@DWATSON1975]

Well if I win the lottery I would buy for sure. But sadly iam a disabled veteran on fixed income with broken truck which is needed 1 before dreams of gaming with my son. Great videos looked at website then the wammy lol thx for letting us see this beautiful machine.

[@Looosid]

Dick Watson I’m sorry to hear that sir. I hope you fulfill that dream of yours. There are many laptops out there that perform well for a good price. If I were to say, Lenovo Y740 is a great deal. :)

[@Andreyx123x]

Good review , thanks !

[@canniversparadise]

Ugh just waiting for mine to arrive I can't wait to power this baby on

[@Chadams20]

what are your thoughts on it man? I ordered mine last week, so keen for it to get here :D

[@canniversparadise]

@@Chadams20 I love this laptop!! When I got it I was thinking damn this is big but that's only because I'm used to 15in slim laptops but I knew that buying this and was more than fine with that given the performance. So looking at the performance side of things I bought the 1660 Ti model which is more than capable for most games I only play a few games on it due to the fact that I use this for music production as well. When I did play games I could play them on high with over 100fps some games at 144fps. It can maintain 4.40ghz stock but I didn't try to overclock or change any of the profiles because I was more than fine with the given performance I recommend keeping it plugged up though. It can hold 4.40ghz off the charger but not for long once your battery starts to drain drastically so that's 1 gripe but it makes sense. The keyboard is amazing as well and heat oh heat is something you really don't have to worry about the fans get crazy and I'm sure you could get higher clock speeds with the max fan but prepare to use headphones turned all the way up. Many people don't know this about this computer but there's also a very very high quality DAC on this machine really nice for audio. It has some weight as well but I got used to carrying this big ass monster around whenever I need to. The structure of this computer is nice and sturdy, I believe it's all aluminum

[@Rizlack]

Haha same boat w me now man!! Bought the $3,899.00 version i9, 2080 super mp, 3tb storage...I ordered it yesterday and they said September...I'M DYINGGG haha

[@canniversparadise]

I know your pain man

[@TiberiusEmpire]

I miss you guys! Please keep making videos, also do you guys have ASUS Mothership?

[@GenTechPC]

Thank you for your support. Don't have Asus Mothership yet but should be soon.

[@GBFGO-PLAYER]

Hello! I am somewhat interested in buying this laptop, but just out of curiosity, what is the brightness and color accuracy of its screen? Additionally, how is the backlight bleed and contrast?

[@flyinga2]

There is an available SSD bay. What would you use it for if you want rapid boot times or game loading using 2 NVME drives?

[@JaredReabow]

does it operate full performance with one PSU and dip into the battery ti supplement?

[@AlexNste]

Hi mate, thank you for the review , I'm planning to buy this laptop with 2070super GPU and 10875H CPU after 2 failed purchases of mine 1st Helios 300 and second Legion 7i both rubbish ! On silent mode can you hear the fans ? Are the fans suddenly go loud on silent mode as Helios 300 does ? Thank you

[@abhitsinha8813]

Can you review acer predator helios 300 (2019), bcoz i have one of earlier version (red edition) i want to see inside and its temperature profile. Btw good work!

[@Kroker16]

thank you for video. the best unboxing. i like details. thermal camera is very good. 👍

[@pulse897]

Can you plug a separate mechanical keyboard and mouse into it

[@thisspace4rent271]

it has usb, so of course you can

[@lanxu8267]

I am wondering if you guys sell in US or in Australian?

[@GenTechPC]

We are a US based company but we do ship worldwide.

[@pujiea]

wow the thermals are great. It seems that gpu doesn't really get hot, wonder if 10th cpu could get any lower

[@balaganga6718]

What is the average battery life, just browsing and not gaming with RGB off and screen brightness at 50%?

[@GenTechPC]

Should be around 7 hours.

[@luckyjc11]

@@GenTechPC can it run on one Adapter for normal browsing and Microsoft work?

[@윤성빈-o8f]

Alienware 51m or oarus 17 which is better,stronger

[@spicysweetness6095]

alienware 51m cause its running a desktop cpu. both of them probably have same rtx 2080 but aorus 17 is about 500$ cheaper. I really like the alienware but its just too fckin expensive.

[@SandeepSingh-wr5fh]

Alienware 51

[@yummydummyfunny7052]

Which laptop do you recommend The acer predator Helios 300 or the Aorus 17?

[@rhdarthur4280]

I know this might be a dumb question but I was thinking of buying this laptop but before I do wanted to know if it supported cpu and GPU upgrades. Cause I wanted to try to install the new AMD Ryzen 4000 in it if possible but I don't know much about the actual components

[@canniversparadise]

No it doesn't

[@clintonnnah7762]

Is the laptop portable

[@longsilver2646]

Amazing laptop

[@xFlared]

Wish it had Gsync. Only thing that keeps my eye on asus (g703gx in particular). Design wise I like the look of this one.

[@jakerossi24]

Admiral Ackbar I had the G703GX and the G703GXR and it is plagued with coil whine I had them both replaced twice and then got a refund for both.

[@rodneyarcher8910]

Do you need a bracket to install a sata ssd a 2.5 ssd is loose

[@spicysweetness6095]

I like the alienware area 51m better but its expensive af. this one is about 500$ cheaper makes me want to reconsider my choice

[@FabuliciousAF]

what did you choose? I doubt if to get this one also, one of the things I wonder about is that it has no G-Sync..

[@hyped5723]

On your site u say that 2070 model power brick output at 230w but on Aorus official site say 330w for the same model may I ask which is the correct one?

[@GenTechPC]

You are right it's single 330W and we corrected, thank you.

[@masszero3521]

I would just like to ask If I use the HDMI and im using a 144hz monitor? will it effect? or HDMI monitor will be just 60hz even if its capable of 144hz refresh rate?

[@GenTechPC]

At 1080P it can supports 60hz, 120hz, 144hz and 240hz depends on the monitor you are using.

[@Cin74]

Hi long time no see.

[@GenTechPC]

hello. :)

[@lemonboi2179]

how bright is the screen

[@serendipity--]

nice review. thank u ! release hurry in korea please.. i like it..

[@LeslieDoray]

2080 a max q? or full 2080 as ive got conflicting spec on this site...www.scorptec.com.au/product/Notebooks/Gaming-Notebooks/79530-AORUS-17-YA-9AU2452SH

[@alipacheco5877]

This notebook is a full 2080

[@joshschuh6776]

How long does battery last?

[@colins5142]

I'd say no longer than 2hrs on minimum settings. My AW 17 r5 has a 99wH battery (bigger than the Aorus'), GTX1080 with Gsync and I'm lucky to get 1.5hrs out of it

[@colins5142]

^and that's not even playing games. That's battery life off internet browsing and playing music

[@alipacheco5877]

It has a mux so battery life is nice

[@NiklausAdv]

I love the design but i stay with my alienware area 51m

[@erickmoralvocal8586]

What is the body made of?

[@GenTechPC]

It's metal.

[@ayushbhagat4837]

Where did you get it from...????

[@GenTechPC]

From Gigabyte and we are their authorized reseller.

[@Carnivore86]

What kind of screen ?

[@GenTechPC]

AUO B173HAN05.0 240Hz, same screen as the new MSI GT76 240Hz model.

[@sabishiihito]

Also specifically panel type is AHVA (=IPS level).

[@vigneshkumars8011]

I am indian ........how to buy this laptop......any retail job tell me in aorus

[@Altdeletef5]

[@GenTechPC]

Yes it is.

[@piglink10]

Does this have G sync?

[@Abster1911]

No

[@Carnivore86]

What kind of HDMI ? 2.1?

[@GenTechPC]

It's HDMI 2.0 4K @60hz.

[@aces-group]

jep ☺ ☺ ☺ , show the keyboard...i will buy next time one ...but i am using a Lenovo keyboard...best of best for developer...so u showed anything but didn't practiced the usage ..type quickly and show how its running... fast enough , low high-point. nice feedback , good sound etc...60% is used by keyboard and nice screen...rest speed m.2 ssd and CPU +ram (maybe u make a live video- you will get better feedback ) last sentence in general for all review maker who want to earn $from Ytube channel
