Nvidia has announced that new laptops will bring true desktop performance to notebook gaming in a portable machine. The extra power will make the new systems for the laptop that fully supports the Oculus Rift BR headsets.
The benefits laptop users will get is that Nvidia has managed to squeeze a desktop grade GeForce GTX 980 graphics card into a laptop. Laptop GPUs can offer great performance, but putting a high-end desktop card into a portable machine could allow a truly uncompromised portable gaming.
Aside from high-end graphics enjoyed with the laptops, it will include fast 7Gbps memory, 4-8 phase power supplies, and Nvdia's G-SYNC technology. The systems will be built also with overclocking in mind, offering a full fan control and extreme cooling solutions that are not enjoyed by old laptop models.
According to Gizmag, there are six systems so far that have been confirmed to carry the tech: Aorus X7 DT, Clevo P870DM and P775DM, MSI GT72 and GT80, and the Asus GX700VO. The last of them is perhaps the most interesting, with a water-cooling clock that boosts performance when users are at their desk.
There's no word yet on the date of availability and pricing, but users should be prepared to get one once it becomes available.
With the application of the GeForce GTX 980 into laptops, users can indeed expect that it will boost performance in games. As laptops have a limited capacity for cooling, so Nvidia is picking GTX 980 GPUs for use in laptops. However, it selects only the ones that are suited for the application.
According to the report of NYSE Post, the features of the laptop GTX 980 include between four- and eight-phase power supplies for cleaner and better power delivery.
Nvidia will be bringing a built-in feature for fan control to its Geforce interface. To make this simple, the chip firm is providing an overclocking tool on upcoming laptops that offer full control over all processors on the device.
