GIGABYTE AORUS 15P YD - 15.6" FHD IPS Anti-Glare 240Hz, Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU 16GB GDDR6, 32GB Memory, 1TB SSD, Win10 Home, Gaming Laptop (AORUS 15P YD-73US244SH)
A: Maxes out to 130 Watts.
Q: So how much Video RAM has the RTX 3080 in this model actually?
A: The safe bet is 8GB. Best Buy is falsely advertising this as 16GB. You MIGHT get a 16GB model, but don't count on it. I didn't, and will likely return.
Q: What is the weight of it? 10lbs or 5lbs?
A: 4.8lbs
Q: Is this the 16gb rtx 3080 varient?
A: The answer isn't very clear. There is 8gb dedicated VRAM and 16gb Shared VRAM. I'm trying to figure out the real answer myself, but I'm finding varying answers.
Q: Hi, I see the specifications for this laptop is 1920x1080. Is this true or is it actually 4K?
A: It's 1920x1080. 4K resolution for laptops is not particularly popular for gaming as the higher demand on the hardware at the higher resolution is hardly worth it. The visual quality difference on a screen in the 15-17" range is not very large at normal viewing distances.
Q: Does the second ssd slot support nvme gen 3.0, 4.0 or both?
A: The second slot is 3.0 and the first slot is 4.0
Q: does it come with mechanical/optical keyboard like the Aorus 15/17G?
A: According to Gigabyte's specs on their website, this has a mechanical keyboard, yes. https://www.aorus.com/laptops/AORUS-15P--Intel-11th-Gen/Key-Features
