The Best UltraThin Gaming Laptop?!

[MessyGK]

Need a university grade laptop that is compact and easily transported! Temperatures and Noise are the only thing that worry me with these laptops and I'd really prefer to get the one with the lowest noise level and coolest temps (If that's even feasible for this type of laptop).

 

I'm not an Ultra Settings Gamer, I just like to have playable settings and very high fps (@least 60) on 1080p.

 

 

CyberPower Fangbook Edge (1920x1080):

 

Pros:

Baller Specs

Based off MSI GS60 (Everything is the same with the exception of some customizable hardware)

Not sure about cooling but if it was anything similar to GS60, cooling should be great as well

Good Screen for its type?

Great Keyboard if similar to GS60

 

Cons:

I don't know too much Cyberpower quality off the bat and how the upgraded components will stay cool and maintain quality over time.

No VGA input for possible presentations on projectors (not a big deal)

 

 

Gigabyte P34w:

 

Pros:

Ballers Specs as Well, not as good as Fangbook Edge, but close enough

Super Super Thin

14" is actually what I prefer, making it super portable for University movement

VGA input for possibly presentations on projectors (not a big deal)

 

Cons:

Heard the fans are pretty freakin loud, even at idle.

Thermal Throttling sometimes happens under load.

Apparent Screen Backlight Issues for an IPS

OK Keyboard, Linus complained of flex, but P34G didn't have any flex, so may have been his flawed test model 

 

 

Asus G751JT (Not too thin, but great performance):

 

Pros:

Baller Specs

Awesome IPS

Good Keyboard

Excellent Cooling

 

Cons:

Pretty Thick, not Ideal for college

Lots of Asus Bloatware Keys and Such, I could use a good keyboard

 

 

Thoughts?

Why not just get the MSI GS60 as is and not from cyberpower

 

Also take a look into the Clevo P651SE

[Enderman]

how about the blade?

[MessyGK]

Blade is way too expensive for the other laptops in its class. GS60 lacks a 970m at the price. Clevo P651SE interests me, but I can't seem to find a link for pricing.

"I want a super thin gaming laptop"
"Oh, I also want it to be very cool"
"Also, I don't want the fans to spin up at all; I want the notebook to be quiet"

 

Do you also want 10 hours of battery life while gaming? Because you're asking for polar opposites, might as well throw that impossibility in the mix.

 

If you want a Clevo here you go

I'm not trying to get my cake and eat it too, I just want to know which out of the three provides the least compromises.

 

All these laptops are awesome in their categories, I just want to know which one would probably handle cooling best out of all.

 

The Clevo looks awesome to me, it will probably be the one I go with.

Good battery

Performance

 

Good thermals

Silence

 

Nice quality

Low price

 

Pick one of each category, you can't get everything

This is a great deal but it has an 870m in it which is last year, but still powerful

You just listed a bunch of clevo rebranders...

[MessyGK]

So I guess the decision is really between the NP8651 (The Clevo) or the P34w

 

I'm leaning heavily toward the Clevo, but I really want to see some more on reviews on the way for the P34w, since there isn't a huge amount out there on it.

 

What do you guys think? Damn that Clevo is nice, thank you for recommending it.

The P650SE is by and large the better machine. There's no contest, except for size, but the P34w V3 manages to throttle a 970M (read: runs COLD) by just gaming with a demanding enough game, so... yeah.

a couple...not all

I meant that every manufacturer you linked uses clevos. It's generally a "pick your poison" as they're all going to be the same hardware, really.

 

Actually I take it back I can't even tell what maingear are using and I don't feel bothered to go hunt it. I know all the others rebrand clevo for certain.
