Gigabyte Aero 15X-CF2 (W/ Pantone screen & GTX 1070 Max-Q)

Mike Jennings October 13, 2017 Featured Tech Reviews, Laptop / Mobile, Notebook, Reviews

To test the Gigabyte Aero 15X-CF2, we have pushed it through our standard array of benchmarks and tests. We have tested CPU performance, GPU performance, drive performance, thermals, power usage and battery life to give a comprehensive view of the laptop.

Here are the benchmarks you can expect to find in this review:

  • SiSoftware Sandra
  • Cinebench R15
  • CrystalDiskMark
  • 3DMark Fire Strike
  • 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme
  • 3DMark Time Spy

Given that this laptop does have a discrete GPU inside, we also tried some 1080p gaming at high settings on:

  • Deus Ex Mankind Divided
  • Rise of the Tomb Raider

    Prefer the proper heavy gaming laptops like my MSI laptop from 2014. Don’t see the point of these thin max-q laptops at all.

    That’s an interesting cpu the ‘77700HQ ‘ one to many 7’s but then again It might be new knowing Intels naming system

    Being able to use it for something else than gaming. Like sending email at the beach for 8 hours straight on battery power, bringing it on vacation without breaking the back, etc.

    I like those huge bricks myself, even bought a MSI GT80S with 18 inch screen.

    But I can see the point in this laptop. Mobile power.

    Given that this is virtually the same but with more power, how come it got a whole point less than the Aero 15? Is it because of the heat issues when stressing both the CPU and GPU simultaneously?
