I reviewed the Gigabyte P35X V3 just about a few weeks ago, it was an amazing notebook with drooling 2880 × 1620 resolution for the glorious display and the most outstanding feature about the notebook is that it’s powered by an nVidia GeForce GTX 980M!
Here’s the GPU-Z of the GTX 980M.
Gaming at Full HD (1920 x 1080)
The GeForce GTX980M’s performance is stunning, based on existing benchmarks it seems that the GTX980M’s performance is between the desktop GTX 970 and GTX 960.
