To test the USB 3.0 ports on the GX700, I plugged in an OCZ Trion 150 SSD via a SATA-to-USB 3.0 5Gbps adapter, which uses the ASMedia ASM1053 controller. We reviewed the SSD HERE, finding it delivers good speed at a budget price.
Most importantly, it is capable of saturating the USB 3.0 bus, allowing us to test the speeds the USB 3.0 ports deliver. To test this, I ran both CrystalDiskMark and ATTO Disk Benchmark on the Trion 150 drive.
As you would expect, the results are right at the ceiling of the USB interface. There are also 2x USB 3.1 ports on the GX700 – but unfortunately I had nothing on hand capable of saturating the USB 3.1 bus.
£3,500 for a laptop with a gpu that will be last gen in the next month, nope.

Cool concept but its already got dated hardware, and its simpler to just carry a small form factor pc case in a suitcase than this thing… plus you can actually update the hardware on a small form pc unlike laptops
I saw the title and thought ‘wow’ how did they squeeze watercooling into such a small package, then I saw that monstrosity on the back.
Good idea though, let down a bit by out of date hardware especially considering the price.

I get that it’s testing a concept. But like the other commenter I’m a little surprised by the hardware. Not in the 980 in McMahon format, but the lack of ski for it. Or that it didn’t come with a custom 980ti on my. Very interesting concept like the external gpu docks that are coming out.
