i'm nikki Haley from cnet com and i'm
here in taipei for computex 2015 we're
on the 36th floor of the taipei 101
building here at the gigabyte showroom
where we're getting a look at the brand
new a horas gaming laptop the x5
gigabyte are calling it the most
powerful 15-inch laptop on earth and it
probably stacks up to that pretty bold
claim weighing in at 5.51 pounds or
about two and a half kilos it's not the
thinnest laptop on the market but it
does pack in a gtx 960 five nvidia
graphics card you're also looking at
three different SSDs in a raid
configuration they've even baked in a
special hardware enhancement to help
with broadcasting your game for all the
twitch people out there it's got
Nvidia's g-sync technology baked into it
and that's all happening across a 3k IPS
screen which looks pretty incredible the
x5 sits in between the 17.4 inch x 7 and
the 13-inch x3 the x7 of course gotta
refresh at Taipei as well the x5 starts
pricing at two thousand two hundred and
ninety nine dollars and goes up
depending on what configurations you
want to pack in it's already won a
couple of design awards here at computex
2015 and it looks set to be a bit of a
winner for the ORS brand i'm nikki lee
