Affordability and an RTX 4080 gaming laptop do not mix together, but there is a rare machine available on Amazon that will present you with an impressive combination of powerful specifications, while being priced at $1,899. We are referring to the GIGABYTE AORUS 17H, a 17.3-inch powerhouse that will run AAA games at the highest visual settings with ease. With competing products sporting similar hardware priced at over $2,000, you know that you have struck gold with this deal.
The predominantly metal chassis and upgraded hinges give a robust feel to the AORUS 17H, and the fully RGB keyboard paired with a rather large trackpad completes the package. Complementing the 12GB GDDR6 RTX 4080 GPU, which runs up to 175W, is an Intel Core i7-13700H CPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD. For those wondering, you can upgrade both the memory and storage down the road, but we recommend picking up something right now, as there are a multitude of offers on Amazon.
One incredible solid-state drive deal that we spotted was the 4TB version of Samsung’s 990 Pro, which is currently listed for $289.99 after a 38 percent discount. The display is a 1080p IPS LCD panel that refreshes up to 360Hz, making GIGABYTE’s gaming laptop ideal for playing e-sports titles and obtaining a competitive edge. While we would have preferred a 1440p panel to let the RTX 4080 GPU properly flex its muscles, it is understandable that GIGABYTE resorted to using a 1080p panel to save on component costs.
Thankfully, the I/O on the AORUS 17H is stacked to the brim, giving you several USB-A ports, along with an HDMI 2.1 and Thunderbolt 4 input for immense versatility. If you ever feel that this gaming laptop’s 1080p screen does not deliver the visual fidelity that you seek, you can always invest in a QHD or 4K monitor down the road. In terms of ‘price to performance,’ we cannot recommend the GIGABYTE AORUS 17H enough, especially when you have such potent hardware available in a portable package.
