GIGABYTE is also joining the RTX 3000 series mobile GPU refresh game by announcing updated models of AORUS and AERO laptops.
With the introduction of Ampere cards, it is now more power-hungry and heat blasting than ever which is an issue that needs to be tackled well. With the WINDFORCE Infinity thermal system, more performance can be squeezed out through higher heat dissipation thanks to up to 37% more airflow intake and allocating more headroom for the GPU to adjust its clock speeds around. To be clear, both AORUS and AERO laptops are fitted with them so everyone gets to enjoy smooth gameplay without spending an extra dime if they wished to.
We summarized the updated specs sheet for the 2021 AORUS and AERO laptops alongside the product link together down below.
