hi there, what is the consensus of Gigabyte gaming laptops ?
-Are they known to be well made?
-What about the matte ips screen ? is it as pretty as Ideapad 700 ?

Seriously considering the P55G V5.

any help greatly appreciated

Gigabyte P55G:

Pros:
72% NTSC AHVA IPS (Ideapd 700 is lower. Forgotten is 50% or 60%)
dual 2.5" Harddisk slot
Pre-load 8G DDR4 Memory
Intel 8260AC Wireless
Cons:
Yes single Fan. But it could be get rid by fan boost it

Now adays most nvidia embended laptop does have Optimus tech.
Means by default the CUDA GPU disabled if u doesnt do any game or video. Thats allow u work longer on battery

thanks babeh. it is appalling that no gaming notebook manufacturers ever thought of making a "battery dock" or something for extra battery power. it won't be so bad even if they make the battery removable
