Would be interesting to know if PCS are going to stock this.

OMG, I just found an upgrade!!! I'm positive PCS will stock it if Clevo have anounced they're doing a chassis on it.

They'd have to work some wonders on cooling though.

It's got all 2048 Cuda cores active.... blimey! Proper GTX980, not throttled at all.

Well its certainly official and pcs are mentioned, expected new laptops in October. Check out this link.http://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2015/09/22/vr-laptops-virtual-reality/

The new "Vortex Elite V" will be landing in early November.

You will be able to choose the following:

2 x 6GB GTX-970M SLI
1 x 8GB GTX-980 DESKTOP
2 x 8GB GTX-980M SLI

GTX 980 desktop is 35% faster than GTX 980M but 5% slower than an actual GTX 980 desktop GPU.

So if GTX 980M was 100 then GTX 980 is 135 and SLI GTX 980M is around 190 - 200.

Boom!!! We have a winner chassis everybody! Get in line.

Are they plug in modules or soldered on?

Will they be G SYNC?

 

[Pagey]

Linus Tech Tips say they should be.

Must be soldered, I reckon... seems the way it's going generally.

Will these options only be available in a 17" chassis? A 15" with one of these would make a nice portable beast!

 

[moosEh]

Historically the Vortex Elite has only been a 17.3" model.

 

[PCS]

They will only be available in 17.3" and will be MXM modules - so not soldered down. However, it is very unlikely that you will be able to upgrade the MXM cards to a future generation because the chassis BIOS will not accept this.

They will be G-SYNC.

 

[Pagey]

That's cleared up a lot, cheers!

Sounds beast

Hello PCS and fellows

I was wondering what happens with the P775DM?
Are you going to sell it, along with the P870Dm aka The Beast ^^?
Im very interested in this model with a slighty downgraded 980 inside (180w version isn't it?)

 

[PCS]

Both models use a 330W Adapter as far as I am aware. A GTX 980M needs a lot of power, (230W - 330W minimum AC adapter when in a full system) so I doubt that you would get much power from a 180W adapter.

We have not decided on P775 yet. Why would you prefer this over the 17.3" Octane or 17.3" Vortex Elite?

 

[MorejaSparda]

Thank you for replying so quickly, PCS

Sorry if i didnt express myself correctly (im not native ), i wanted to mean that the p775dm has the 980 for notebooks with 180 watts of consumptiom (the card per se) , instead of the "Full 200 watt 980" of the P870dm (that is a little bit more powerful)

I would choose the P775DM over the Octane and Vortex Elite because it has a 980 in a lighter chasis ( and i find prettier too )
In fact i was going to purchase one Octane 17" a few days ago, and i have decided to wait for the P775dm ( i can pay a little bit more for it, if it worth)

 

[PCS]

I don't think the P775DM will be available for several months (maybe the end of November) and, correct me if I am wrong here - but as far as I am aware the chassis looks almost identical to the 17.3" Octane II?
