The GTX 1080 really opens up the gap between home consoles and PCs due to the fact that the GPU is designed for native 4K gaming and VR support.
The GT72VR Dominator Pro Tobii (Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070, 8GB GDDR5) is priced at Rs. 2,35,000.
Despite being the most powerful GPUs we've ever seen in gaming laptops, Nvidia claims that Pascal is able to deliver up to 30 percent more battery life than equivalent Maxwell-powered notebooks.
Weighing just 1.9kg, MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro is the COMPUTEX Best Choice Golden Award 2016 victor and the lightest 15 "gaming laptop that packs a powerful cooling system and GEFORCE GTX 1060 graphics, extreme computing performance and outstanding gaming features into a 17.7mm ultra slim chassis, which is even slimmer than some Ultra books".
The latest GTX graphics processors are at least 150% more efficient than their M series counterparts. It will run at 1733MHz for the base clock and will also have the same 8GB GDDR5X memory that the GTX 1070 and the GTX 1060 do not have. Indeed, most laptop makers are reusing the same chassis as they did for the GTX 980, resulting in systems that are insanely thick, heavy, and about as portable as carrying around a sack of bricks. The lineup names also adds "VR" to mostly all the laptops, thanks to the new VR-ready nature of the Nvidia GPUs. If it is, we found the slightly cheaper, slightly less meaty GTX 1070 to be the sweet spot between price and performance, while the 1060 rounds out the series with a decent VR offering on a budget. Previously it was down to the laptop builder to implement their on-battery performance, which meant reducing gaming speeds by anything up to 80% to allow for longer battery life.
More news: Women's gymnastics vault final wraps upWe'll be reviewing individual laptops as and when they become available, but if what you've just read sounds right up your alley, then you better get saving, as the gaming laptop revolution has well and truly arrived.
In some rare cases, the laptop GTX 1070 can perform better than a desktop version, although only when the game in question has excellent multi-thread support.
That ends today as Nvidia has announced that it has created gaming notebook versions of its new graphics cards based on the Pascal architecture.
The new GTX 1080, 1070, and 1060 for laptops are nearly identically specced to their desktop counterparts. Now all we need is actual games worth playing in VR to make the hardware worth owning. Of course, that's kind of a statement on the battery rather than everything else - until you can replace that with another battery that's larger - but that's not what most laptops use. Thankfully, Nvidia has realised this and has worked with manufacturers to bring both 4K and 144Hz panels to gaming laptops.
Of course, these almost desktop-class graphics solutions are going to be pretty power-hungry, so don't expect stellar battery life if you're using a relatively thin-and-light laptop.
