Armed with two NVidia GeForce GTX 970M GPUs the Aorus X7 Pro looks to competitive performance levels in the same incredibly thin form factor that the series has become known for. Adopting the same sleek and stylish chassis design as the Aorus X7V2, the refreshed device delivers both power and style in a portable, travel friendly form.

Similar to other Aorus devices this elusive combination of performance and portability does not come cheap. The unit Notebook Review tested is currently listed at $2,600, but with performance gains across the board, users looking for the optimal performance in a portable package will find the X7 Pro to be an enticing offer.

Nice review Mike.

I personally can't see in this day and age buying a notebook that runs hot (let alone loud). This is the 21st century and portable computers have been around for 30+ years. The non-engineer in me says the solution in this notebook's case is to beef up the cooling system which would likely involve making it thicker.
