RTX. IT'S ON
The new NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 laptop GPU is powered by the award-winning Ampere architecture—NVIDIA’s 2nd gen RTX —with new Ray Tracing Cores, Tensor Cores, and streaming multiprocessors for the most realistic ray-traced graphics. The ultimate performance for gamers and creators.
NVIDIA Advanced Optimus® & G-SYNC Technology
Through dynamic display switching, Advanced Optimus® improves battery life without impacting the immersive, tear-free, stutter-free gameplay of G-SYNC. The system will intelligently determine when apps need the dedicated GPU or integrated graphics.
TAKE IT WITH YOU
At just 19.9 mm, the easily portable, all-metal body is ready for travel and plenty of mayhem. With ample battery life, you'll have time to revel in victory as you drive your enemies before you or, should you be called upon to attend to work or run your studio.
COOLING EVOLVED
Cooling comes first - which is why we've streamlined the Triton 500 SE with a triple-fan approach utilizing our 5th Gen AeroBlade 3D Fan Technology. We then refined this further with the wind-guiding optimization of Vortex Flow to keep airflow strong and temps low.
5th Gen AeroBladeTM 3D Fan
With 89 ultra-thin (0.08mm) blades and a wind guiding structure, the AeroBlade™ 3D fan’s bionic wing tip design increases air intake, while the wind guide draws in greater airflow with minimal turbulence.
Vortex Flow Design
Through strategically placed thermal foam and controlled paths, we are able to further optimize the airflow to increase overall cooling – reducing the surface temperature and delivering superior performance.
HEAR IT ALL
With the DTS® X: Ultra Audio, turn any pair of headphones or speakers into a high-end 360 degree surround sound system - enabling you to experience your favorite movies, music and games with real-world spatial sound.
LESS LATENCY, MORE VICTORY
With the Intel® Killer™ E3100 Ethernet Controller, Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650, and Control Center 2.0, you have all the tools you need to clear out the online competition. You deserve the low latency and reliable connection that only Killer networks can provide.
PORTS APLENTY
Offload photos via the SD™ 7.0 card reader and plug all your peripherals into the full range of USB 3.2 Gen 2, including either of the two incredibly fast Thunderbolt™ 4 USB-C ports - which support DisplayPort functionality and Power Delivery.
COMPLETE COMMAND
Give the 3-zone RGB keyboard a spin, pop open PredatorSense™ (via the ever-so convenient hotkey) and tailor it to your precise preferences. The custom utility app also allows you to monitor your system, overclock, create macros, and more.

My ADHD has a friend. This thing is a work horse!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best PC I have ever owned! This is the first review related to a Best Buy purchase. I work from home as a project manager using multiple instances of programs like ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro and QGIS at the same time working in Chrome in ESRI Online. I'm that ADHD guy that has 3 chrome profiles open with 20 tabs running in each lets not forget the 2 remote desktops, 10 instances of excel with hundreds of thousands of records being copied and pasted back and forth. I collaborate all day with MS Teams via voip and screen sharing. Oh let's not forget the 10 emails I have open and a couple of instances of MS Visio cooking. Based on all of that its not a huge surprise that I usually push my PCs to the point of crash. I rarely reboot unless forced to (crash). Anyway my point is I'm not the ideal user, I make my rig work. I paid a lot for it it should do it's job. This laptop does it's job! I can't seem to crash this thing. I'm usually not a fan of Wiin10 Home but this build seems to run flawless. I typically load my own version of Win10 Pro on new machines but I haven't felt held back enough to justify doing so yet. I'm not a huge gamer but I can and do work all day then without closing anything fire up Steam and play Black Ops 1 or 2 multiplayer without any lags or fps issues. I move around the house a lot so one of my peeves is ports and plugs. I really like the power port and especially end of the plug that goes into it. It has secure feel when it is inserted and does not pop out while your moving around. My favorite thing about the power plug is the built in stabilizer that squares it firmly against the side of the laptop so doesn't allow it to rock when the laptops is sitting a little uneven putting a little pressure on it. Having 4 USBs is nice. They do their job as expected. The machine runs cool and quiet. Screen is crisp and clear I run a 27'' monitor off the HDMI port works great. I recommend this laptop to any work from home nerds who need to start each day right where they left off the day before.
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Fan noise, Power

Great anesthetic design with good powerful hardwar
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using this product for several weeks, it is great for what it does and also has a sleek design with the hardware that it packs. The fan does get quite loud but with the RTX 3080, it is a trade off that comes with the powerful GPU housed inside. One other thing that would have been nice is that the GPU would be using a higher watt (100 watt vs other competitors) and 16GB GPU memory to give it more oomph. Otherwise this is a great purchase and loving it.

Good but loud
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super loud fans if you want full performance. All thin laptops will overheat so I guess they compensated by putting super loud fans to cool it down.

Q: QuestionCan you please tell me whether this model has NVIDIA Advanced Optimus in it? Also, will RTX 3080 8 GB affect gaming performance?
Asked by predatorchampion.
- A:Answer From using the product for several week and trying different games and game engines, I can safely say that it does NVIDIA Advanced Optimus (it does dynamically switch between the IGP and the discrete GPU) by using a app that is located in the taskbar. From my gaming session, the 8 GB doesn't seem to affect gaming performance and one of the plus of this laptop is that it isn't much heavier than my work laptop (it is heavier by 1 lbs)
