    You can’t always judge a book by its cover. That idiom perfectly encapsulates Gigabyte’s new 14-inch P34Wv3. At first glance the P34W could pass for a simple Ultrabook, but under its unassuming exterior lies an impressive array of specs. Armed with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 970M and a fourth generation Intel Core i7 CPU, this 14-inch ultra-portable can stand toe-to-toe with many of the larger 15.6 and 17.3-inch gaming rigs on the market.

    The P34W feels like a device made for adults. The laptop does away with all the flash and flare that many of its contemporaries boast about in favor of functionality. It’s well built, it’s tasteful and it offers excellent performance. Keep reading to see why we really enjoyed the Gigabyte P34Wv3.

    Nice review Mike!

    Agreed about the audio jack - really should have a dedicated microphone jack on a gaming notebook. We don't all have newer headsets, and many of us have separate mics anyway. Otherwise looks like a great gaming notebook.

    Nice review. Though I think the Razer blade is over 4lbs.
