I spoke with a laptop reseller a few minutes ago and according to him, the 980 will only fit in laptops thicker than 1" - so it will not be available in a slimmer, lighter gaming laptops like the MSI Ghost series.
- bd 11y agoThinnest notebook from GTX 980 launch lineup is Aorus X7 DT: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Nvidia-announces-GeForce-GTX-980-for-notebooks.150756.0.html http://www.notebookcheck.net/Nvidia-announces-GeForce-GTX-98... While it's not yet listed on Aorus site, it's quite likely chassis would be same/similar to its older sibling Aorus X7 Pro: http://www.aorus.com/Product/Features/X7%20Pro-SYNC http://www.aorus.com/Product/Features/X7%20Pro-SYNC This was 2x GTX 970M SLI model, pretty slim at ~23 mm with 3 kg weight. I wonder though how well cooling will work with GTX 980. All previous Aorus models kinda struggled with cooling, and that was with less powerful GPUs (albeit SLI). Out of announced notebooks, the least weird ones are MSI GT72 and Clevo P775DM: http://www.notebookcheck.net/fileadmin/Notebooks/News/_nc2/GTX_980_Press_Deck_1442606447_page_022_4.jpg http://www.notebookcheck.net/fileadmin/Notebooks/News/_nc2/G... Pity they didn't include also 15" sibling of that Clevo chassis (P750DM). That one would be pretty awesome.
